Devotees began paying as much as $40 on eBay for a single pencil. In the early 2000s, we used our access to the best wood, graphite and artisan manufacturers in the world to introduce a line of premium pencils we called Palomino. The buzz surrounding Palomino led Blackwing fans to ask us to try to bring Blackwing pencils to a new generation. In 2010, we did just that.
Blackwing Palomino is the second entry in our Blackwing Eras series. It features our extra-firm graphite, along with a "Palomino blue" body, distinctive gold stripe.
