Claimed by many to be the best writing utensil in the world, Blackwing pencils are famous for the quality of graphite, iconic shape, and the people whose works they’ve inspired throughout the years.

Blackwing pencils use high quality graphite produced exclusively in Japan. In general, Palomino graphite pencils are smoother than more commonly available pencils due to the special formulation and processing methods used. Japanese consumers also prefer a darker and softer laydown so Japanese-produced leads tend to be softer and darker. This leads to differences of 1 to 2 degrees compared to other pencils.

Pencil cores are rated on a scale corresponding to the hardness or softness of the graphite. A harder pencil core will make a lighter mark on paper, while a softer core deposits more graphite on paper and, thus, leaves a darker mark. Softer pencils will dull more quickly than harder leads and require more frequent sharpening.
