Kohinol KH3415 Colored Pencils, Dry Highlighter, Set of 6 Colors

Buttery color lay down while being truly dry and non greasy or chalky. They're comparable to Prismacolor Premiers though with higher tactile feedback. These don't smear and they arent overly soft. All pencils react under 365/395nm UV. Note: yes, blue is fluorescent as well but will be drowned out by the optical brighteners in most white paper. Plan accordingly. Also, they don't seem to blend with plain friction though I have yet to try a solvent for the wax. They're also waterproof/resistant so not for a base layer.These are fantastic and it took way too long to find them. I do blacklight art and these are a great addition to the toolkit! Highly recommend. Koh I Noor always comes through (big fan of their Ultradraw ink as well)

These are great! The lead has not broken, the colors are bright. I use them to highlight in my Bible which has very thin paper pages and they do not tear the pages, and also use them to highlight in books.I will definitely order them again!

I love the pop of ink-based highlighters, but I always find that they bleed too much and with many brands the darker colors (like blue, green, red) tend to be excessively dark so it defeats the purpose of highlighting text. So for my books and music scores, I usually underline and circle with colored pencils. However, I sometimes wish they could pop more, most colored pencils tend to be more muted even with bright colors like pink/red/orange. I am finding that these "Dry Markers" are a great in-between alternative – all the poppy brightness of highlighters, but with a sharper point and zero bleed like pencils. Plus even the "darker" colors like blue and green are actually quite bright and neon, which is the point of a highlight.4 stars only because I wish the color labels on the end of the pencil were closer to how they actually appear. For example the one which looks like it might be a proper red is actually much closer to being what I would describe as a salmon (orange-pink). The one which you might think is pink I would describe as close but similar to a light purple-lavender. Minor stuff, but I confuse them sometimes haha! Also sometimes I don't love the texture. As they are called "Dry Markers" I would emphasize the word "dry" in my description of how they feel on the page... unlike most pencils and markers you might be used to with a bit of a soft, buttery, smooth (almost "wet" feeling), these are comparatively a bit rough and take some effort with some colors to really get them going, requiring you press down harder to get a nice vivid line, more than I'm used to with say regular colored pencils. It's not a huge deal, mostly takes getting used to.

Wanted to try pencil highlighters, this is a very nice set. Colors show up well.

Colors are great but they do t write smoothly. Got them for my Bible and they are too hard for the fragile pages.

Great highlighters

This is an update to my previous review. I received the item this morning and they are in excellent condition.

These are great, I use them all the time, they don’t bleed through the page. They’re like a colored pencil Except they’re different in a good and better way than a colored pencil. I highly recommend them. The delivery was a little slow, but it’s something I was willing to wait for.
