Blackwing Pencils
The ideal gift for artists, musicians and any creative thinker, Blackwing pencils recently came back on the market after a ten-year hiatus. Their excellence in design and craftsmanship earned them their cult following since the 1930's, including Steinbeck himself. Blackwings are made with genuine Incense cedar from California with premium Japanese graphite. These writing tools even feature metal point guards and replaceable erasers!
BLACK barrel is the softest.
Next is GUNMETAL GRAY. Also soft — for speed writing and speed sketching
PEARL WHITE is “balanced” — firm, but with some softness for responsive point
NATURAL wood barrel is considered “very firm”.
Pair these with a linen covered journal from Bindewerk or a Blackwing Slate Journal!
Remember to Order a Blackwing Pencil Sharpener for optimal pencil maintenance.
