If you're in Switzerland, this is the pencil you'll find for sale at the supermarket or at the post office. It's the most basic of the Caran d'Ache range but there definitely isn't anything basic about it with its smooth core and high-quality cedar casing.

We measure the characteristics of the pencils we sell against a General's Semi-Hex #2, which is the pencil we consider to be a good quality pencil of true HB/#2 hardness, similar to that of most American #2 pencils. The swatch in this product listing reflects that.
