Yes, you can use a 2B pencil instead of an HB pencil, but there will be differences in the darkness and softness of the lines. A 2B pencil produces darker marks and is softer, making it easier to create shading and bold lines. In contrast, an HB pencil offers a balance between hardness and darkness, suitable for general writing and drawing. Depending on your needs, the choice may vary, but both can be used effectively in most situations.
you take 2 HB or 2B pencil,rubber and a sharpener
The order of hardness goes:9H 8H 7H 6H 5H 4H 3H 2H H F HB B 2B 3B 4B 5B 6B 7B 8B 9B hard medium soft
This are the 6 different pencil cases: '''2B, HB, 4A, 4B, 2A, 4C.'''
I don't quite understand what you mean by HB-2 pencil but if you mean HB pencil / #2 Pencil it is not the softest pencil. Pencils scale from 9H to 9B, (HB in the middle) and 9B would the softest and darkest pencil there.
um this is a weird question but i just "munch"on whichever pencil is in my hand
The ideal pencil hardness for sketching is usually around HB or 2B, as they offer a good balance between darkness and ease of erasing.
An HB pencil is just a No. 2 Pencil HB stands for Hard Black
To start sketching, it's best to use a pencil with a medium hardness, such as a 2B or HB pencil. These provide a good balance between darkness and ease of control, allowing for smooth lines and shading without excessive pressure. A 2B pencil is particularly favored for its ability to create rich, dark lines, making it ideal for initial sketches. As you gain confidence, you can experiment with different pencil grades to achieve various effects.

Many pencils across the world and almost all in Europe are graded on the European system using a continuüm from "H" (for hardness) to "B" (for blackness), as well as "F" (for fine point). The standard writing pencil is graded HB.
correct
cm for a reg. hb pencil it's about 1 cm
