Palomino - Blackwing Long Point Sharpener - Black

The Blackwing Long Point Pencil Sharpener creates the perfect point using a two-step sharpening process, first sharpening the wood and then precision sharpening the graphite core to a long, fine point. Every sharpener comes with two replacement blades and an automatic brake that prevents over-sharpening, and the sharpening reservoir catches pencil shavings and graphite dust. Blackwing pencils were first introduced by the Eberhard Faber Pencil company in the 1930s. Their cult following included John Steinbeck and chuck Jones, who proudly used Blackwings to create Bugs Bunny and many other Looney Tunes characters. Over the years, the pencil with the unique rectangular eraser became synonymous with quality. However, due to cost cuts, they were discontinued in the 1990s. That didnt stop devotees from paying as much as $40 per pencil for unused stock. In 2010, we drew from nearly a century of experience to access the best materials in the world and bring Blackwing and its accessories back for a new generation of writers, musicians, and others seeking a more natural existence.
