General's Charcoal Drawing Pencils are handcrafted in the USA with General's Original Charcoal formula dating back to 1889. Handcrafted with responsibly harvested, straight grained, incense cedar wood to ensure smooth sharpening and strength. General's Charcoal cores are bonded to the wood with our exclusive Carbo-Weld bonding process for added strength and reliability.
