Is this a pencil that can be use by an adult as well? Or is the size suited only for children?

it can be used by adults... but appears to be better suited for children...with the ergonomic design...

Sorry only my son is left handed so can't answer the pencil question. I can tell you that I write like a left-hander and love the left-handed pen we also bought

I'm an adult and the size is good for me, absolutely. I'm a beginner so strings are fine. I changed nothing as it came.

I got it for my grandaughter who is 9 but she will be able to use it when she is a teen also. I think it would work fine for an adult.

This is the same size as the Junior Tangle. It fits in the palm of an adult hand. If you are looking for a larger Tangle I recommend the Tangle Therapy. Here is a link to the item on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Tangle-Creations-300-Therapy-by/dp/B000F8I5AE/ref=aag_m_pw_dp?ie=UTF8&m=A30QBT07D6EPBS

I'm no expert about this, but I purchased it for my daughter who is nearly nine and she isn't really strong enough for it. I would say, yes, an adult could use it.

I just purchased this for my 14 year old, but an adult could use it as well.

Since I bought it on line without realizing I bought the small one. I find for adults it is pretty tight to use it. for children it should be alright and also smaller sized adults.

The slot to incert the pencil has the diameter of a standard pencil - I'm not sure what size exactly it is, but it is the most common pencil size you see. It probably could sharpen thinner pencils, though I'm not sure how well.

It is not only for kids, I use it for myself. I do use it on my two year old as well and she likes it. But I bought it primarily for my own personal use.

YES! My husband, the artist responded. "YEAH! It has an adjustible sharpener for pencil tips and the odd of the lead breaking are slip to none. He has another one he has had for YEARS at work that still works - he wanted a new one for home. He refused to buy any other brand! Get it!

It is for an adult. Although, I suppose if you wanted to purchase it for a child to grow into, you could. However, it is adult size.

Two seems young for a regular pencil, but it would work. I personally recommend a Furby pencil or a big triangular pencil.

I would not recommend it for children; it is very thin and breakable when it is not near adult supervision. This product I purchase is to be used to create precise stencil work for art designs and graphic illustrations. If the purpose is not for art or medical examinations (viewing x-rays); I would not recommended it beside too expensive for general uses especially with minors; there are other light tables or boxes you can use with kids and they can be found from your local art supply store or just check out Amazon's other collections that they have in their catalog.

I don't really draw -- that being said -- for some reason I imagine it might be a nice pencil for drawing. Lead is soft and I like writing with it because it's almost effortless. The downside to this is that it requires frequent sharpening, especially since i also prefer a very sharp point as well. And...since it writes so dark, doesn't erase as easily sometimes. For me, it's a very comfortable pencil. Wow, realize how OCD I sound. Anyways, hope this helps...

It is more like a pencil as it has a thinner point, but the texture of a crayon. It has a sharpener at the other end. I've used this for years and can't find it in the stores anymore, so bought a bunch on Amazon.

I tried a kind of large pencil and it fit. Not sure of the size you're referring to.

It is slightly fatter than a pencil. The diameter is 11/32 in. The length is 4 1/2 inches long. I hope this answers your question okay.
