I personally prefer this to soapstone. There's such a fine line. It doesn't burn under a torch (I know soapstone does too). the red turns white under the torch, I prefer a sliver to see the torch better. It leaves a more permanent mark than the soapstone: you can run your glove over the line you made, it won't fade, blur or lose air. It has a "similar" consistency to a pastel or china pencil and when the steel is hot the tip melts faster but leaves a lighter or more defined line leading to the bottom. I recommend a pencil sharpener. I choose the EX-20 electric pencil sharpener because it runs on batteries. I personally break soapstone a lot and the holders are crap, but soapstone is superior to this pencil because it can be easily sharpened with this pencil, you need a sharpener, a razor won't give you the sharpness you want. no matter how over the soapstone, that's a welder's pencil and you need it!
