Yeah, the mechanical ones you just put the lead in and get a really nice point. These are just for regular pencils. I get that they had to keep people from cutting their fingers… but it’s a bit of a pain.

I use one on my framing bags it fits well on the lip of badgers or ocl fat lip setup. That being said I know framers that use it since it's hard to loose it since it's Soo huge and lasts to the end of time. What I did with mine is they sell black and white pencils which are curella Deville black on one side white on the other and for that it's useful. (Pica classic 546) The purpose of a white pencil as carpenter or framers know is to mark on wet pressure treated lumber or dark wood and even idea like veneers. Good luck finding thoes pencils in quality but I like them enough to keep seeking them out.

I'm mainly looking for a holster for carpenter pencils. I already use the 3030 for smaller projects and sketching when crafting. Does anyone make just a compact sheath for carpenter pencils? Or should I buy this and cut it so it'll fit my tool belt.

Not for me either. Reminds me of a potato peeler trying to sharpen it. Try the Pica 6060 Big Dry For construction. It's the regular Pica 3030 that you have but in a flatter carpenter pencil shape. Also has different color leads like the 3030.

I can understand people using carpenter's pencil. Nothing beats that it's flat, thus allowing easy scribing. But after I've started using Pica, I stopped using wooden pencils. So a quiver is a no for me. Not to mention that the first thing I used to do with carpenter's pencils was to cut them in half, so they were shorter. Way too short for that quiver. For really precise marking (tiles, cabinets etc.) I use Pentel GraphGear 1000 with 0,5 mm lead.
