Tracer Deep Hole Construction Pencil Site Holster. Extendable 2B Carpenter Pencil with Inbuilt Carpenter Pencil Sharpener

So the actually pencil is ok, so far as good as any of the others. My dislike is that the sharpener is in the holder so you have to use it with the holder or you can't sharpen it. I'm not a fan of the holders I'd rather juste have the pencil but the sharpener makes everything worth it. Usually with other pencils the sharpener doesn't actually cut or sharpen and it take 5min holding at weird angles to get a sharp point. Not this sharpener it actually works like you would expect them to and does perfectly. 10 stars for the sharpener, just wish it was with the pencil and not the holder so I could just throw the holder away

As a hands on general contractor, every day I am on a job site working. I hate the normal construction pencils, they aren't any good for accurate marks. I have tried every style carpentry pencil that is offered on Amazon (don't find them too often at a box store). The ones without sheaths, the lead breaks easily or you lose the top with the sharpener. Not to mention they roll around when you set them down. The ones with sheaths are definitely higher quality, easier to store and the tips don't break off when stored in a pocket or on a belt. The Tracer is the best one of all of them so far. In fact the only reason I am buying a new one after a year of heavy use is because I lost it (my fault). No other one has lasted past a few months. I carry it even when I'm not working, kinda feel naked without it. Because of the extra clip on the pencil itself, it doesn't roll around. I have never had the lead breaks while stored either. It is of high quality, it performs its function flawlessly, and well worth the money! I highly recommend this pencil over all of the competitors! Just remember... Good isn't cheap and cheap is never good.

So much better than construction pencils or standard mechanical pencils. The built in sharpener is great. Retention of the holster is great. I have zero complaints.

Nothing bad you can say about this. It’s a great value. It seems to last a long time. Definitely a good purchase.

solid pencil gets the job done wish it came with extra lead but realistically it should last longer then those wood ones

This is a must for any trade. It might look a little bit pricey, but I promise you that once you invest in it, you won’t go for any other pencil. Markings are clear, it has a cool little pouch that stays in your pocket or pouch, comes with a sharpener, and works on every material I’ve tried to make markings on. Marks most surfaces and is an essential item to have in your toolbox. This is a durable item that has a variety of uses and is something that a tradesman can't be without! It is the perfect tool for Electricians, low-voltage techs, and DIY enthusiasts alike.

Little pricey for a pencil but it works great and no complaints so far.

So much better then average carpenter pencils. Last longer, can be sharpened with the built in sharpener, and works better. This si all we use in our shop now.
