NOTE: This is the end of the road for this great little set - it will not be restocked. We were nuts to offer a product that contained items from 6 different manufacturers that had to be assembled by hand and packed 100% plastic free It was and is a super handy set (still using mine 6 years in!). Limited inventory remaining - expect to sell out by December.
Our ride-or-die essentials in a compact aluminum tin.
Tin: Intentionally slim. Fits just what you need, and nothing you don’t. When it’s worn beyond repair, it’s 100% recyclable.
100% Wool Liner: Keeps contents from rattling around inside the tin. Liner is compostable.
1 Metal Pencil Sharpener (incl. 2 replacement blades)
1 Natural Rubber Band (secures contents when transporting in bag/backpack) ____________________________
Any purchase from Wisdom Supply Co. is an investment in a business carving out space for sustainability in a sea of mass produced garbage and greenwashing.
We’re the real deal making real deal closed loop products here in the U.S.
The materials housed in the pencil tin are simple, utilitarian tools (sourced from other manufacturers) that do their job without creating plastic waste.
While we love this product, once they sell out, that's it for the foreseeable future while we pause all non Planner and 3-Ring Binder categories in order to narrow our focus and strengthen those two core categories.
Shipped from a BCorp Certified fulfillment center in 100% Recyclable paper/cardboard packaging - plastic free (always).
Unpainted Pencil: Our favorite pencil ever. Made from sustainably-forested incense cedar by General’s Pencil Company in New Jersey (one of the last American pencil factories), and not sullied by a coat of paint that creates micro plastics when sharpened (paint is plastic).
Metal Sharpener: German made, compact, and equipped with two replacement blades built in.
Wax Highlighter: These "china markers" have been around for ages, and their bright yellow wax makes them the perfect replacement for disposable plastic highlighters.
Stainless Steel Pen + Refill: Available as an add-on. This substantial stainless steel ballpoint pen is a handsome reminder that pens should not be disposable. Even the extra ink cartridges are plastic free.

RETURNS Free within 30 days of receipt. If there is an issue with your purchase, please reach out so we can make it right.
SHIPPING Orders typically packed within 24-48 hours Monday - Friday.
Orders ship via USPS or UPS. Shipping prices are the actual rates we pay (the true cost of shipping from Northern CA. - Sorry Maine!). As we grow, we will negotiate more favorable shipping rates, but for now, we pack every order (plastic-free), load up our cars, and deliver to a post office in a nearby town because our local Post Office refuses to accept or pick up the “large” number of packages we have outgoing on a normal basis.
Thanks for your patience while we navigate how to scale what we’re doing!
Perfect pencil - the highlighter, eraser and sharpener are excellent too. Love how the set comes in a plastic free case. Great gift for those that love to write in pencil or draw.

A valuable tool.
I love my zero waste pencil tin set. I’m a graduate student and it is very helpful to have all the tools I need all in one place. I live it so much that I ordered a second one. When there was a problem with my it the company fixed bit immediately. 100/100 would recommend!
