Abstract

Pencils not requiring sharpening are produced by wrapping a thermoplastic resin sheet, which has been uniaxially stretched, around a core material so that a stretched direction of the sheet forms a spiral against the core material, whereby the sheet forms a holder for the pencil which may be stripped off to selectively expose the core material.
