I had a set of Geddes pencils that I adored as they never smudged. However, I think I may have wrongly attributed this un-smudgeability to their being #1 pencils. Is there a correlation? And more importantly, can anyone recommend a (really) good smudge-proof pencil? tag:ask.metafilter.com,2006:site.32602 Mon, 13 Feb 2006 18:33:42 -0800 pencils anonymous78 http://ask.metafilter.com/25986/Where%2Dcan%2DI%2Dfind%2Da%2Dgood%2Dquality%2Dpencil%2Dcase I love using pencils. Unfortunately, I have yet to find a slim, durable case to store them in, without having their sharp points either poke through or break off completely. Can anyone help me a find a good quality pencil case? I've already gone through dozens of the cheap, zippered plastic kind, only to have my pencils puncture through them, and leave a mess of gray scribbles. I'm a student, and currently use a medium-sized leather tote bag to carry my stuff around, so something that's not too big and clunky is preferable. Thanks to everyone in advance! tag:ask.metafilter.com,2005:site.25986 Sun, 23 Oct 2005 16:07:18 -0800 containers organization pencils invisible ink
