Musgrave Factory Seconds Pencils vs ForestChoice #2 Graphite Pencils

Buy the ForestChoice 12-pack if you want dependable, uniform #2 pencils that write the same every time. Buy the Musgrave 144 factory seconds if you want a large, varied stash for a classroom, workshop or giveaway and don't mind flaws and repeats. The ForestChoice is the better-built, more consistent pencil, with FSC-certified incense-cedar and a clean hex barrel. The Musgrave box is a grab bag: mixed hex and round shapes, possible kids' or promotional designs, and up to half the box alike.

• Choose the Musgrave 144 factory seconds if you need a big, cheap-to-replace supply of pencils and variety or cosmetic flaws don't matter.
