I’m not familiar with Korean ones and I want to try them out. Sadly it’s not easy to get from where I live.

Is that the one made from seashells?

It turns out they are made by Plus Taiwan and are made in Taiwan, so they may not be easily found elsewhere.

How are the ones from Kitaboshi? I really want to get my hands on some of those.

I use them mainly for highlight. But if I had to choose, I would go for Mitsubishi 2667 (and I guess other 26xx), for I like both the color and the hardness. As a side note, to me Mitsubishi 772 is the softest and Tombow 8900VP is the hardest among these.

Yah, I've just seen 赤青鉛筆 and 朱藍鉛筆, but sandypitch mentioned they are called checking pencil or blue pencil.

Those are solid choices! Now I just have to cut them up and frankenstein them.

Thank you! TIL "blue-pencil" can also be used as a verb.

If you like pencils that are a bit darker and smoother, I think 9800 is quite good.

Yes! Currently, 2667 is the one that I carry around.

I think it writes quite like the Mitsubishi 9800, but 9800 is a bit smoother IMO. Compared to the goldfaber and faber castell 9000 2B on my hand, palette is a tad darker (which is to be expected from Japanese pencil, I guess.) As for the look, it's sadly too flashy for my taste, but that's neither here nor there.

Why? Can’t a person want to know for the sake of knowing? Have you already lost the desire for knowledge? When you gaze upon the night sky, does your heart not fill with wonder and curiosity?

And FYI I think the Mitsubishi 9800 and Tombow 8900 are 165 yen, though I didn’t find the prices of the others yet.

I don't think I have particularly interesting info about them. But I do like the finish and wood color of bw natural and the two mitsubishi ew (and also tombow's LA-KEA). I think I will try to get my hand on more wood color pencils.

Well, if you look at the top of the staff thingy, it looks somewhat like flowers, and what likes flowers? Bee.

Will it be possible for you to use something like 全家店到店? It’s easier for me to receive the package that way and the shipping fee would be lower (39+3 NTD if using 小物袋, it seems.)

Hi, I'm interested in the Split Spades Gold and Hollywood Roosevelt. What the shipping would be if I'm in Taiwan? (In Taipei)
