Awesome, /u/Runaway_5.
I recently picked up a bunch of Ticonderoga #2 pencils to donate to my local school. The teachers really like the pencils because they have quality lead that doesn't constantly break, and they sharpen nicely. The erasers also work better than the smudgy ones cheap pencils have. (I'm not calling the ones in the photo cheap). If anyone is interested in buying them to donate to Vic or anyone else, they're on sale right now at Walmart:
96CT for $6.92, so around 7 cents a pencil for good quality pencils
EDIT: Amazon also has them on sale
Not exactly an unpopular opinion but Ticonderoga #2 is my favorite pencil, easy to sharpen, good erasers. Pentel high-polymers erase really well; if you don't go too hard with the lead they basically erase your paper back to white.

Amazon too. Seriously great pencils, as long as you have a decent sharpener that won't break the lead; the erasers are the best I've ever encountered.
Ticonderoga HB 2 It says it's "The worlds best pencil" soo yeah.
I use this to sharpen it.
The Nite Ize pen runs about $16 on Amazon, and refills are about $11.
You can get 96 Dixon Ticonderoga pencils for less than the initial cost of the pen.
Pencil shavings can also be used for tinder as stated above, and can also be carved into pegs, toggles, stakes, trap parts, etc.
I buy this 96 pack of pencils for my son every year and an extra one for the classroom. The teachers don't ask for specific brands but Ticonderoga is a better brand that I just prefer to buy.
These specific ones aren't pre sharpened but anytime there's been a request for pre sharpened pencils I just sharpen them myself. The teacher doesn't care if it's bought that way or done at home as long as they don't have to waste a ton of time sharpening pencils themselves.
The only wood pencils I will ever buy are Dixon Ticonderoga pencils, and the only mechanical pencils I will ever buy are Bic Mechanical Pencils. It seems like every other pencil uses plastic as an eraser, as if someone at PaperMate said, "Hey, we can save money if we stick a piece of crap on the end of the pencil and say it's an eraser!"
I'm not OP, but get good pencils. Every teacher on earth needs those. Less broken lead means less pencil sharpening and more learning.
You'll need a lot of pencils though
Here you go!
Here's enough to last half a lifetime, or if you're like me and lose every damn writing implement you touch, about a week.
