The Blackwing Natural is the pencil for people who want to feel the graphite work. Its extra-firm core produces a fine, controlled line that holds detail well, making it ideal for long-form writing, technical drawing, and precise line work. The exposed Incense-cedar barrel is left natural with just a clear matte finish, giving it a material honesty that feels right in the hand. Topped with the signature square ferrule and a replaceable grey eraser. ASTM D-4236 compliant. Sold individually.
Further Reading: Blackwing's roots go back to the 1930s, when the original 602 pencil became the trusted tool of John Steinbeck, Chuck Jones, and countless other legendary creators before being discontinued in 1998. In 2011, the brand was revived using premium Incense-cedar and Japanese graphite, honoring the original's legacy while building something new for writers, artists, and makers who believe the right pencil matters.
