This special edition pencil is the third entry in its Blackwing Eras series, which honors Blackwing's heritage with designs inspired by the unique history of Blackwing 602.
In 2020, we launched our first Eras pencil to celebrate 10 years of Blackwing's revival with a design straight out of the 1930s.
In 2021, they launched their second Eras pencil as a tribute to the Palomino pencils that inspired the Blackwing revival: Palomino Blue and Palomino Orange .
This Eras 2022 pencil features a retro design inspired by the arrow-shaped punched ferrule found on mid-20th-century Blackwing pencils.
Each special edition pencil features a dark gray body, a perforated ferrule with a gold arrow, gold printing, a red eraser, and extra-firm (HB) graphite.
