MONO Penmanship Writing Pencil

Description:

TheTombow MONOPenmanship Writing Pencil, also called Kohitsu Shosha is a pencil used to practice traditional calligraphy character writing. The pencil features an extra wide graphite core for a greater amount of tip thickness variation. If you adjust the pressure and angle you write with, this pencil can mimic the strokes of a traditional calligraphy brush used to write Kanji or Chinese characters. The combination of softgraphiteand a wide, hi-density core results in a pencil that can write ultra-dark without pressing hard and breaking the pencil lead. Use this pencil to practice your own calligraphy penmanship or as a smooth, sturdy pencil for drawing and sketching.

Calligraphy pencils are commonly used in East Asia to help young children practice their penmanship. The hexagonal shape also makes this pencil easy to hold, especially for small hands.
