A drawing pencil is a black lead pencil. What makes a drawing pencil special, is that it is made in a wide variety of degrees, or hardnesses. These degrees are also carefully controlled to insure accurate steps between degrees, and uniformity from batch to batch. Most manufacturers also use special combinations of clay and graphite not available in their general use pencils.
