“Having used pencils from around the world for many years, I can say that the new Palomino Blackwing 602 is one of the finest pencils for writers available today, and certainly the most unique in appearance. This is a great pencil. Cal Cedar did a wonderful job.”

“After a side by side comparison with one of my original Eberhard Faber Blackwing 602s, it is my extreme pleasure to report that this new version carries on the look, feel, and spirit of the original line of 602s! In fact, the new 602′s line is a little firmer, yet both darker and smoother than that of the original 602.”

“The photos don’t do the new PB602 justice. Beautiful finish. The black eraser looks MUCH better in person. The new Blackwing 602 definitely holds its point longer; still very dark and smooth. A fantastic pencil.“
