Short barrel coloured pencils

Crayola 684112 short barrel coloured woodcase pencils come in a set of 12 assorted colours. The 3.3 mm thick cores are designed to resist breaking under pressure. Presharpened points stay sharp longer and resharpen more easily than standard coloured pencils. Bright pigments provide smooth, scratch-free laydown for colour mixing and blending.

Capacity and headroom

The 12-colour assortment covers basic drawing, colouring and classroom projects with enough variety for simple blending. The short barrel length suits smaller hands and compact storage but limits the total pigment volume per pencil. Heavy daily use will exhaust the cores faster than full-length alternatives.

3.3 mm core diameter

The defining specification is the 3.3 mm thick, soft lead core that resists snapping when pressed hard. This diameter balances durability with the smooth laydown needed for mixing and blending techniques. Buyers who need finer detail work or longer barrel length for extended use should consider other formats.

Questions about this item

Will these 3.3 mm cores work well alongside my standard full-size colored pencils?

Yes, the thick soft cores lay down color smoothly and blend easily, so they match the feel of regular pencils while the short barrel gives extra control.

How can I tell the 12 pencils are performing as intended right after opening?

Each pencil comes presharpened; the points should stay sharp through initial use and resharpen cleanly without the 3.3 mm cores crumbling.

What exactly is inside the 684112 set and do I need to buy a sharpener separately?

The box contains 12 assorted-color short woodcase pencils with 3.3 mm presharpened cores; a sharpener is not included, so purchase one if you don't already have one.
