A description is given of a wood-encased pencil comprising a casing and a core, the casing consisting of wood material impregnated with a saccharide component, the saccharide component comprising at least one mono-, di- or oligosaccharide and at least one polybasic organic acid in solution in a vehicle.

A marking utensil comprises an elongated body having opposite ends, with the body defining a plurality of outwardly-directed surfaces between the ends. A scale is displayed on at least one surface of the plurality, with at least one surface of the plurality configured for placement along an exteriority of the article to facilitate a measurement thereof. The scale may display U.S. Customary (i.e., inches) and/or Metric International System (i.e., centimeters) Units of measure. A marking tip is located at one end of the body while a reference guide is located at the body's other end.

An apparatus for securing a writing implement to a complementary magnetic surface. The apparatus includes a body formed of a ferromagnetic material, the body extending between a first end and a second end of the housing. A first and second end of the body defines an opening that forms a channel extending between a plurality of lateral interior surfaces from the first end to the second end. In an embodiment, a protrusion is disposed within the housing and extends from one lateral interior surface toward the channel. In an embodiment, a stopper may be disposed proximate to the second end of the body and partially extend from a lateral interior surface toward the opening. In an embodiment, the housing receives the writing implement, and a protrusion contacts the writing implement securing it in place.

This Hand Peel Pencil does not need any knife to cut during using. When the writing head is used out, to acquire more writing head people can just use their fingers getting a short cone tube off from the Hand Peel Pencil.

In this way people can save time from finding a suitable knife and cutting their pencil from time to time during writing. Also using Hand Peel Pencil can protect environment from the garbage of cutting of pencil.
