Sorry guys to bother with a rather silly question.My girlfriend bought me 2=B pencils.
Are these the right ones or are they different from no2?
did a fast google: https://pencils.com/what-is-a-no-2-pencil/
I myself will use 2b but as the article said, every manufacturer is different. test the pencils out and see if they are “dark” enough and easy to erase.
I also googled but could not find a sufficient answer.
okay according to wikipedia’s article on Pencils,
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pencil#The_pencil_in_America
2 is HB, but also this is not followed by all manufacturers.

CFA seems to only say 2 or HB (consistent with the wiki article). oh my.
