HI Jimmie,

I just saw this post and had to reply. I also have been using Ebony pencils for a long time and buy them by the box. I love them because they give me such a rich tonal value and darkest darks all in one pencil. I probably break the tradition of pencil drawing because I never use the 2b, 2h, blah blah blah pencils...I use only one: Ebony. I like to use a fine illustration board to draw on, as the surface is smooth and takes the graphite very well. I would highly recommend these pencils to you, as your drawings are fabulous! They would certainly benefit by being used in your hand.

And that is my two cents worth! ;-)
