Blackwing 602 Graphite Pencil

The Blackwing 602 Graphite Pencil is ideal for writing. Smoother than a standard writing pencil, it offers a feel similar to a 2B lead.

Reintroduced by Blackwing in 2011, the iconic Blackwing 602 Graphite Pencil was once the pencil of choice for creative legends like John Steinbeck and Chuck Jones. It features a firm yet smooth graphite core that lives up to its motto: "Half the Pressure, Twice the Speed." The pencil is finished in a sleek gunmetal grey and topped with Blackwing's signature square ferrule and pink eraser.

Blackwing Pencils are a premium range loved worldwide for their quality, distinctive shape, and smooth lead. Each Blackwing pencil features an extra-long hexagonal barrel made from incense cedar, paired with specially formulated graphite leads from Japan. The result is undeniable quality, delivering a perfect balance of smooth writing performance, dark, intense lead laydown, and precision sharpness. Despite their softer lead, they sharpen reliably to a fine point and perform consistently.

Key features:

• Removable, replaceable eraser, ensuring the Blackwing pencil is always functional.
• Cased in genuine incense-cedar wood from California and Oregon that sharpens evenly and easily
• Premium Japanese graphite crafted with clay for strength and wax for smoothness.
• Multi-coated lacquer gives every Blackwing pencil a luxurious finish.
• Foil debossed imprint gives each Blackwing pencil an elegant look.
