This set of 22 pencils gives you a delicious taste of all 22 hardness grades ranging from 10B to 10H. Imagine the extensive variety of shades and lines you will be able to draw with this set. The pencils come unsharpened, in a reusable aluminum case.
These are the lead grades from hardest to softest:
10H | 9H | 8H | 7H | 6H | 5H | 4H | 3H | 2H | H | F | HB | B | 2B | 3B | 4B | 5B | 6B | 7B | 8B | 9B | 10B.
The harder the pencil the lighter the mark, and the softer B-grade leads tend to create darker colors and smear easily.
A greater percentage of clay results in a harder pencil lead, and lead is graded by hardness. Pencils graded H, F, HB and B are of average hardness. Pencils ranging from 2B to 10B are softer and are used for sketching, while 2H to 10H pencils are harder than average. A common American #2 pencil is equivalent to an HB pencil.
