This amazes me to no end. My high school which I attended more than 5 years ago banned the use of chalk boards in the classrooms that still had them because apparently chalk dust can be irritating to some people. My university only has white boards and screen projectors. I didn't even know chalk was still cherished in some parts of the academic world. It makes me wonder just how amazing this chalk must feel to write with. It sounds like the equivalent to a smooth art tablet but physically drawing on it.

[@cbalan777]

You can see the quality of it in the video. The one guy says "It's the densest" which translates to a more opaque line, and yet he also says "It erases the cleanest" meaning it doesn't have the disadvantage of smearing all over the place, at least not as badly as others might. The formula for the chalk is probably a higher ratio of gypsum to binder, and the binder is probably not the standard type used in chalk.

[@tydshiin5783]

Honestly, if you have decent chalk, it's very nice, kinda like working with harder pastels, but then you got ones that are so hard it's like a rock

I am doing a major in math and I’ve had the opportunity to use one of these chalks and what you just said is exactly how it feels. It feels like a writing on a white board with a marker but while still having the distinct chalk feel. It’s hard to explain, you just feel like a God when you use them.
