Despite all the advances in office technology, the traditional pencil is still one of the most cost-effective and practical promotional gifts available. Pencils are great for producing lines that can be easily erased. They're small enough to easily fit in a purse or pocket, making them ideal to hand out at trade shows (when people passing your booth might already have their hands full of promotional swag). They don't leak, don't require batteries, and don't have an expiration date. The only problem is that most pencils look rather drab. What you need is something that's both practical and stylish.

* Actually, it's no slimmer than the average pencil, but it looks that way because black is a very slimming color.

** Most people don't know what a ferrule is; don't sweat it. It's that metal band that holds the eraser onto the barrel.
