The BEST wood for making a Pencil is California Cedar Wood or called as Inscene Cedar Wood. In the scientfic langauge of Forestry this wood is called "Libocedrus Decurran Torray"... The Pencil wood (Slats) made out of this wood are very expensive and this makes Pencil also expensive!! Mainly SMALL PIECES cut from wood are called "Pencil Slats" and it dimention has to be 5.00 mm (Thickness) X 75.00 (Width) X 185.00 mm (Length) As a result, In Asia (The major contributor in Pencil Production) Pencil makers use some other wood... And thise wood are... Linden(China) Bass wood(China/India) Poplar(India) Jeluthong(M'sia/Indonasia) Vatta(India) Elav(India) Any soft wood, having straight grains, Knotfree, smooth finish, white or pale yellow color can be used for making Pencil....
