Blackwing colored pencils11/20/2023 All joking aside, you’ll easily spend this much on 4 graphite pencils of various grades. But when you compare this to 40, it’s a bargain. Some will find it hard to rationalize spending approximately 3.75 for each pencil (when purchased as a dozen). I understand that if you received a bad sharpener from an authorized retailer Blackwing will replace it. The 602 drawing pencil is fantastic, but it is expensive. Note: Because Blackwing apparently had a bad batch of sharpeners ship out to retailers, it’s best to purchase them directly from Blackwing while they sort out the issue. The Blackwing One-Step Long Point sharpener costs $19.95, and given how well this sharpener works it may have a leg up on the M&R Pollux at $30, unless you prefer the “brass bullet” format, which some people do because it’s far more portable. AS2M (1053121), Long Point Sharpener, sharpens in 2 steps 2 spare blades includes. As with most “concave” sharpeners (and pretty much anything from Blackwing), it doesn’t come cheap. This item: Kutsuwa HiLine Pencil Cap, Pack of 6, Assorted Metallic Color (RB016) 480 (0.80/Count) +. The body of this sharpener is a machined aluminum matte-black jar that holds a relatively large volume of shavings, and the blade sharpens pencils to a concave (i.e., slightly curved) point that holds up much better than similar “needle points” I’ve been able to put on pencils using other concave sharpeners. From both a looks and functionality standpoint, the Blackwing sharpener might be the best-looking and best-designed handheld sharpener I’ve ever used. Blackwing Volume 200 Pencils, 12 Count, Special-Edition Copper Color, Coffeehouse Inspired Design, Incense-cedar Wood, Premium Japanese Graphite 4.8 out of 5 stars 26 34.90 34. The second sharpener I’ve enjoyed using is Blackwing’s new One-Step Long Point Sharpener.
