Blackwing pencils are famous for the quality of graphite, iconic shape, replaceable eraser, and the men and women whose works they’ve inspired throughout the years. The Blackwing Matte is the softest of the Blackwing Pencils. It is ideal for artists, musicians, and woodworkers. Some of the world’s most legendary Grammy, Emmy, Pulitzer and Academy Award winners have created with Blackwing pencils.

Discontinued in 1998, the Blackwing Pencil is now making a comeback.
