5.0 out of 5 stars My go to carpenters pencil now
Reviewed in the United States on September 30, 2023
I do a lot of remodel work and foundation to finish and the good old carpenters pencil will always be a staple in my bags for basic framing. As jobs progress into detail work, so should your pencil. This set really changed the game. Had my set for months now and they both still work perfectly. The pencil sharpener cap is a great convenience and works a point quickly. I drop pencils occasionally and I thought for sure on a few drops the lead would be broken and I’d have to reload. So far I never had a lead break. The Orange color makes it easy to keep track of. The removable grip tip makes Getting into tight spots and getting accurate marks a breeze. Ergonomic grip feels good in the hand and the larger size will feel right to carpenters accustomed to the 1/4 by 1/2 once common pencils. I find myself reaching for this pencil even when marking layout on PT lumber. Lead leaves bold marks and this set comes with a lot of refills. They each last a surprisingly long time. Also found this pencil to be compatible with several scribe tools I use. Using these pencils will add precision to all your base, case, exterior trim, tile, cabinet, towel rod or any other detail work where accuracy is critical. I really enjoy using these and would bummed without them in my bags at all times

5.0 out of 5 stars Sturdy Pencil
Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 2024
I like this pencil for several reasons. It is first of all sturdy, I've dropped it on the garage floor without damage. I picked it and expected the lead would be broken, but it was intact. Its bright color makes it easy to find. The sharpener built into the handle is convenient and works well. The shape of it allows for precise marking.

4.0 out of 5 stars A few issues, but still an FANTASTIC pencil for rough and finish carpentry.
Reviewed in the United States on December 26, 2023
I’ve always used the regular traditional carpenters pencils, mostly for smaller projects, but for a larger house-framing project, stopping to sharpen the pencil was getting pretty annoying and time consuming. So, I first purchased the single pencil with the six extra refill leads.

What a great pencil! No sharpening needed, just a click of the button and you’re good-to-go. The lines are not super dark, but dark enough, and the leads are VERY strong. (From what I understand, that’s the trade-off– strength vs darkness, so maybe this is a good balance.) And, if you want a really, really fine line for precise measurements, the sharpener creates just that– a really really, fine point on the lead. If you want a thicker line, you can quickly and easily remove the lead and reverse it and use the fat, blunt, unsharpened end. But the good news is, for 99% of the time (when marking sole plates and top plates, or studs, or OSB panels, or whatever), you can just use the pencil as-is and it works great and doesn’t need sharpening or changing at all. I wanted to note that I’m also using engineered LSL lumber for some of the framing (which has a pretty rough, textured surface), and also OSB panels (that are a little rough as well), but this pencil has been great for both. Anyway, I was so impressed with this pencil that I went ahead and purchased the two-pack pencil set with lots of extra leads. I wanted an extra pencil to keep at the miter saw, and another for my helper.

However, a Few Issues:

1) So, there is a removable black finger-grip tip that allows you to mark through a small pre-drilled hole or just have a much skinnier pencil. (Not something that I really care about, but others might want to know this.) Anyway, the black finger-grip tip is really, really difficult to remove.

2) Okay, so there are the REGULAR dark leads, and there are the lighter YELLOW leads that supposedly work on concrete and tile. I was looking forward to using the yellow leads for marking on a concrete slab, but I have not had any luck at all using the yellow leads. I tried them on smooth, finished concrete, and I tried them on rough, textured concrete, but the marks and lines are nearly invisible. I’m not sure if these yellow leads work on tile, but on concrete, not so much. Very disappointed about that.

Finally, Some Nit-Picky Things:

1) When I initially purchased the single pencil, there were no instructions at all, only a square you could scan with a smart phone to get instructions, but it’s not that difficult to figure out that the sharpener unscrews from the push button end of the pencil, and that to remove a lead or load a new one, you just press and hold the push button and the new lead goes into the tip of the pencil, not from inside the push-button end. However, although there were no instructions, there was lot’s of info about how you might win $20 by scanning a different square and registering all your personal info. (Not gonna happen.) BUT, if you buy the two-pack pencil set, you get a six page pamphlet that not only has the info for the “$20 you-might-win-bonus if you register”, but also has the actual instructions for how to use and operate the pencil. Whatever.

2) And finally, when you buy the two-pack pencil set, it comes with three black rectangular plastic holders with twelve extra leads in each. Two 12-packs of regular leads, and one 12-pack of yellow leads (which, as I mentioned earlier, don’t seem to work for what they are intended). It seems that this company has spent waaaay too much time (and money) on creating fancy containers for the leads. They are rectangular boxes, with a slide mechanism, and when you slide the slide, the lid flips up and twelve pointy leads rise up, kinda like a rectangular missile silo with twelve missiles popping up. However, for two out of three of these “silos” that came in the set, the lid just pops off completely, and then you have fiddle around trying to get it back on. Sure, I’m being nit-picky, but come on, just put the extra leads in a simple container!

BOTTOM LINE:
Fantastic carpenter’s pencil (despite the few issues), and a pretty decent price.

These are the best pencils I have found yet!! Not only do they have built in sharpeners, removable grip for marking through a hole, the lead containers are super easy to open and get a new piece of lead out. But the price is absolutely un beatable. Definitely worth every penny

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent carpenter pencil
Reviewed in the United States on April 21, 2024
I’ve never been a fan of the rectangular pencils that are used by carpenters. It’s difficult to get an accurate scribe.

This pencil is easy to use, produces it strong, black line, and marks wood very accurately. I’ll be using this from now on.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great pencil for woodworking
Reviewed in the United States on April 29, 2024
If you do woodworking (furniture, cabinets, etc.), this is the way to go. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality. Not cheap plastic. It has a good solid feel and so far, works as advertised. The built in sharpener is a huge bonus. No more flat carpenters pencils for me. When I lose it, I will buy another just like it.

5.0 out of 5 stars The last pencil you'll ever need
Reviewed in the United States on April 26, 2023
This mechanical carpenter's pencil is incredible. I used it throughout my entire pre-apprenticeship and never even went through one full lead. The lead is very strong, so you can apply pressure on hard to mark surfaces like wood. The grey leds mark wood, metal, and plastic very well. The yellow led works great on both metal and concrete, and is also quite visible on corrugated plastic. Both are strong and much more pressure can be applied for marking than a standard pencil and they hold up better than a standard carpenters pencil. I highly recommend this device for ALL trades people. It is incredibly useful and I never once reached for another pencil. When a pen was needed I used a Rite in the Rain all weather pen. With this Thorvald Carpenters Pencil and a Rite in the Rain all weather pen, you will never need another writing utensil. Both are very effective and quite cheap for the value they provide. I also love the included sharpener at the top of the pencil. It unscrews quickly, sharpens very well, and reattaches easily. The black grip at the bottom of the pencil is detachable so you can mark a piece of lumber through a narrow hole or gap. Props to the Thorvald team. This is the best designed pencil I've ever used! I'll never use another pencil again.

I will say this is a "tool" not a pencil. I like the accuracy of the line it leaves, and the comfort of the handle. I hope that I don't loan this out, because I know it will be stolen! I would buy again, Great price point.
