Volume 602 Pencil

Legendary Grammy, Emmy, Pulitzer and Academy Award winners created their works with the Blackwing 602 pen. The list of known users includes John Steinbeck, Looney Tunes creator Chuck Jones, and Disney animator Shamus Culhane, who, according to animation historian Charles Soloman, wanted to be buried with his Blackwing 602. 

The Blackwing's roots date back to the 1930s, when the 602 model was first introduced by the Eberhard Faber Pencil Company. Over the years, the pencil with the unique rectangular eraser has become synonymous with quality. Then, in 1998, after several acquisitions, its production was discontinued, but it was not forgotten. Fans have even started paying up to $40 on eBay for a single Blackwing stylus. 

In 2007, the Palomino company launched the Palomino pen line, which uses original incense cedar and quality Japanese graffiti. Artists and writers began to compare them to their beloved Blackwing 602s, and people began asking Palomino to consider reviving the Blackwing brand. Palomino drew on more than 100 years of family-run pen industry experience to relaunch Blackwing pens in 2010. In the 10 years since its revival, Blackwing has grown from a single pen to a culture. It's a culture about living mindfully and finding balance in our fast-paced lives.

With its semi-hexagonal shape, it offers an easy-to-grasp use.
