Uni Mitsubishi 9800 DX Graphite Pencil Set (Deluxe Artist & Drawing Series) – Metal Box 22 Units for Drawing and Illustration - (Full Range 10B to 8H)

The Ultimate Japanese Graphite Experience!
The Definitive Animation and Illustration Collection: Power and Precision in One Case
Reach a professional level with the extraordinary Uni Mitsubishi 9800 DX Art Set (22 Pencil Case)
Originally launched in 1946, the 9800 series is a true pillar of Japanese culture and widely acclaimed by generations as the preferred pencil of professional animators and mangaka due to its impeccable line control.
This set, which comes in a premium metal case, offers the maximum tonal range of the series: 22 grades ranging from ultra-dense 10B to ultra-fine 8H
Each pencil incorporates the famous micro-filtered and "matured" graphite (matured micro graphite) technology, a Mitsubishi exclusive process that eliminates any harsh grain to ensure fluid lines, uniform shading, and simply exceptional point retention.
Complete Grade Guide: Characteristics from 10B to 8H Block
With this ecosystem of 22 pencils, artists can faithfully map any light, shadow, and volume effect:
🖤 The Deep Blacks (10B, 9B, 8B, 7B, 6B, 5B): Extra-soft, hyper-saturated lead pencils. The ultimate 10B lays down dramatic, velvety black strokes with almost no pressure. These pencils are ideal for dark backgrounds, strong contrasts, expressive smudges, and quick charcoal and blending stump techniques.
🌓 The Soft Transition Block (4B, 3B, 2B, B): Offer a buttery glide, ideal for rendering portraits, anatomy, and organic textures (like hair or fur). They allow for creating smooth mid-tones and precise control over the grayscale.
⚖️ The Artistic Balance Core (HB, F): The HB is the global standard for freehand sketching and fluid base lines, while the F (Fine) has slightly higher rigidity to retain a sharp needle point for extended periods, perfect for clean structural lines.
📏 The Hard Detail Block (H, 2H, 3H, 4H, 5H): Formulated with a higher concentration of pure clay, these pencils lay down fine, clear, and sharp lines. They are perfect for perspectives, microscopic botanical illustration, and bases for line art.
🔬 The Ultra-Technical Precision (6H, 7H, 8H): Extremely hard pencils that create ultra-light and almost invisible grey lines that do not smudge with friction. Highly sought after for cartography, engineering, geometric drawing, and hyper-realistic details (such as skin pores or glass reflections).
What Makes the 9800 DX Edition Absolutely Unique?
  • Identification End Caps: Unlike regular 9800 writing pencils which have open ends, the DX range boasts a refined finish with a lacquered cap that permanently displays the graphite grade. An essential feature for artists to instantly identify the pencil.
  • The Iconic Forest-Green Finish: The hexagonal body is coated with multiple layers of a rich, deep dark-green lacquer, adorned with elegant gold foil engraved inscriptions, giving it a timeless vintage aesthetic.
  • Ergonomic Anti-Smudge Formula: The high-density core produces dark, crisp lines that do not easily smudge with friction, making it ideal for left-handed artists. The hexagonal shape visibly reduces wrist fatigue during long drawing sessions.
  • Premium Cedar Wood: Allows for clean, continuous, needle-point sharpening, exuding the classic and relaxing scent of natural wood while protecting the lead from impact.
A Heritage of Excellence: The History of Mitsubishi Pencil Company
Founded in Tokyo in 1887 by Niroku Masaki, the brand was born with a commitment to creating exceptional writing instruments.
In 1966, after decades of leadership in the stationery industry, the company reached its engineering peak by launching the Hi-Uni line, designed to be the world's most perfect wooden pencil.
More than a century later, Uni Mitsubishi continues to fuse traditional Japanese craftsmanship with cutting-edge technology, maintaining Hi-Uni as a global benchmark in fine arts.
