Read on for a description and review, all-in-one, straight from NJL's customer:
When they call this "ultra premium" chalk, they aren't kidding! Unlike much less expensive chalk(s), this brand is extremely hard; it almost feels ceramic. This hardness means:
A) It doesn't break or crumble. Less expensive chalks break, chip, and shatter constantly, no matter how gently you handle and/or store the danged stuff. You end up with all these itty-bitty pieces that are impossible to hold onto, so you throw most of it in the trash!
B) Size matters! Less expensive chalk tends to be rather small, making it difficult even for my little hands to hold onto. They also tend to be rectangular with 2 sharpened edges. The larger, more hand-friendly triangle shape of Magic chalk nestles ever so nicely & securely in the hand. It also offers 3 honed surfaces - more marking, less sharpening!
C) It maintains a super fine edge for much longer. This means you spend more time marking, less time sharpening. The softer chalks begin with a nice fine mark, but wears down so quickly that you end up with wider, sometimes even double lines. As the softer chalk breaks down, it also 'sheds' little bits of chalk that get all over the place and make a danged mess.
D) It is about the only thing that will accurately mark on both felted wool and wool felt!!
Important: This chalk does not erase completely from wool. Use a super-soft white eraser, which gets out about 50% of the mark without fuzzing-up the wool. The same high-quality eraser easily removes both light and heavy marks from fabrics!!!
The 'premium' part of Magic chalk is the storage/sharpening container! When closed, it securely holds your chalk so that the fine edge doesn't chip, nor does the chalk break. When opened, it provides a safe, visible stand in which to place your chalk; no risk of it getting tangled in fabric(s), etc., ending up on the floor and smashing. The case also has a built-in textured sharpening surface. What more could a person want, right?!!
