What I don't understand is how there could be a sharpened pencil for sale, I've often wished to buy such an item, but I've never seen one. Not even in Home Depot.

I'll also add that Ikea supplies little pencils, and note pads, and even tape measures, for their customers to use. The pencils are the same kind you get for free at the racetrack.

Cripes I hate Home Depot.

It was a used pencil, likely used by employees.

The excellent Mirado pencils can be bought pre-sharpened, including at Walgreen's:
