Sargent Art66-2012 12-Count White Dustless Chalk

As an educator teaching primary children I have never been thrilled with Expo boards where little hands can get a hold of markers and write on my walls. Chalkboards are what I learned on and what I prefer. However, finding good quality chalk nowadays is quite the feat! I have frequented all types of different chalks. They were either too dusty, too breakable or didn't leave a distinct mark on the board, more of a faded line. After a couple of frustrating years trying to find one that actually writes well on a board I bought a box of Crayola Chalks. Crayola is a great brand for paints and crayons but they miss their mark with their chalk. It doesn't write well on the board at all. It squeaks, skips, and breaks very easily. Sargent Art was my last hope. It met all of my expectations. It is dustless, wonderful to write with (it practically glides from my fingers), the marks are thick and bright and doesn't break easily. It also wipes away from my board with great ease. Most other chalks take a few strong wipes to even start to vanish. This time let go of the name brand and trust Sargent Art. You won't be disappointed!

Nifty chalk, although it behaves more like a crayon, but it is chalk. Great for my marking wood prior to cutting.As a sour note, a few sticks did arrive broken, maybe bad packaging vy vendor. But not enough breakage to return. The broken pieces are still useable.

The chalk is great but every piece arrived broken so keep that in mind. Its still usable for what I need it for but don’t expect to have long pieces of chalk—I guess that’s expected when fragile things have to ship.

My mother gave me an old wooden chalkboard to hang in the kitchen that says 'Scene de Provence - Lavande, Olivier, Ail'. I assume that has something to do with France and food. Anyways, because the chalkboard is so darn cute, I hung it up by the side door and I have started writing what is for dinner on this nightly with this chalk. This chalk writes well. It is on the harder side as far as chalks go. This is good for writing in cursive - the stick maintains a sharp edge as you write. I use a wet paper towel to wipe off the board when I am done. Nothing annoys me more than chalk dust from erasers. I am happy with this purchase and at this point, I probably have enough chalk to write for a year. Thanks!

Unfortunately, the dustless chalk was full of dust and almost every piece was broken. Sending it back.

Unfortunately all but three of these arrived broken, and there is quite a bit of dust. I did wipe the one I am using down with a wet wipe and now it is pretty dust free when using it so I would say overall it is dust free. I wish that they would have arrived in a bit better shape.

Been searching for a while for decent chalk, and no one in my town seems to carry in (or I'm really bad at looking for it!) I found some Sargent Art colored chalks at Hobby Lobby and was so pleased with them that I ordered the Sargent Art White Chalk.This stuff is great. Nice pigmentation, soft and easy to draw with. None of my chalkboards are actual slate, but rather paint over wood/metal. That didn't seem to have a negative impact.Someone in another review said that these were hard and scratchy - the outside of the chalk is, so you'll want to sharpen or rub off the outer layer before use. Speaking of sharpening these sharpen we'll with a little patience. So pleased!

I never thought I'd give a rave review for anything as ordinary as chalk, but this stuff is excellent. The "dustless" chalk I was using was soft, crumbly, and wouldn't make a clean line. Worst of all, it was dusty. The Sargent chalk, on the other hand, is firm, dustless, and draws a strong, clear line. Get the good stuff - this is it!

Cabe aclarar que los gises puede que no lleguen en buen estado, en cuanto a que varios llegan partidos pero eso no resta la condición del producto. La calidad de los gises es mucho mejor que muchos gises de marcas más comerciales, además de que son antipolvo, tienen una muy buena durabilidad.A pesar del precio, creo que son una excelente opción de compra en Amazon.Muy recomendable.

(+)Stick ergonomy is perfect.You can do drawings on pavement with it.You can break one in two and share with a friend creative moments.It writes on blackboard stuff not to forget like your wife birthday present.(-)Leave a dusty white residue on fingers (duh.)

El producto es bueno. Marca de fabricación Koreana. Pintan bien, son anti polvo en las manos y lo mejor, no venían rotos en la caja, pero la realidad es que son muy caros acá en amazon. En méxico te valdría lo mismo comprar unos crayola que valen menos, pero me gustó probar estos.

The only thing that sucks is that these are add-on items so you have to wait to get these. Other than that, they are indeed dustless, write just fine on the blackboard and get the job done without making me sneeze. The item came perfectly intact and protected by crumpled paper. For about $1 each pack of 12 it's hard to go wrong.

Fuera de que algunos gises llegan rotos, no son inutilizables. Buen producto, recomendado.
