REVIEW VIDEOS

Introduced in the 1930's, the Blackwing quickly became the favorite of novelist John Steinbeck, animator Chuck Jones, and composers Stephen Sondheim and Quincey Jones. Discontinued in the 1990's, Blackwing pencils were reintroduced in 2010 by American company California Cedar's Palamino pencil division. Made to Palamino's specs by Japan's finest art pencil manufacturer, and using strong and straight Incense Cedar logs harvested in the US, assembly is completed by Palamino. The graphite is Japanese, with a blend of clay, for a smooth, sensuous feel. Each Palamino has a unique metal ferrule that holds a long wide eraser and clip - when the eraser wears down, simply remove the clip, pull eraser out a little, and reinstall. Replacement erasers are available, to assure that your Blackwing eraser lasts as long as its pencil! Musicians and artists will prefer the Blackwing for a soft, smooth performance. Writers and everyday users will prefer the Blackwing 602, for a firmer line.

Not the ones for music

I called in my order to Shar for the Blackwing pencils musicians use for marking music, which have soft lead that makes dark marks and erases easily. I received these instead. Now Shar wants me to pay to return them because of their mistake. Note to Shar: your online listing displays this identical pencil for both the soft and the firm. Next time I buy Blackwings I will buy them elsewhere.

These are so cool

I love the way these pencils look. The eraser tends to fall out sometimes. The graphite is really smooth. Despite the eraser falling out, it erases cleanly.

Blackwing pencils

Best pencils ever! I can see why people enjoy using this.
The pencils write very smoothly and clearly. The best part is that the eraser on the tip can be replaced.

excellent pencils

I just received these pencils today and I can immediately see the difference between Palomino Blackwing pencils and other wooden pencils. These pencils write very smoothly. The graphite is very soft and dark. However, the eraser are black, not pink, as shown in the picture.
