This special edition pencil is the third entry in Blackwing's Eras series - honoring Blackwing's heritage with designs inspired by the Blackwing 602's unique history. In 2020, Blackwing launched their first Eras pencil celebrating 10 years of the Blackwing revival with a design pulled straight from the 1930s. In 2021, they released their second Eras pencil paying tribute to the Palomino pencils that inspired the Blackwing revival. This Eras pencil sports a retro design inspired by the arrow-punched ferrule found on Blackwing pencils in the mid-20th century. Each box includes 12 special edition pencils that feature a dark grey barrel, gold arrow-punched ferrule, gold imprint, red eraser, and our extra-firm graphite.
