Blackwing PALOMINO 3Pencils Set(Original, 602, Pearl 1each)

Expensive, perhaps due to being a US import, but they are unlike any other pencils. Very smooth, high quality graphite and a broad range of darkness depending on how hard you press. This mixed set gives you a chance to sample them before investing in larger numbers. Pity they are so hard to get. I had to wait a while but it was worth it.

I’ve tried a number of different pencils for my illustrations and they all were pretty much the same…….until, I bought these. These are absolutely incredible for sketching and have a solid lead. Highly recommend. I don’t think I want any other pencil now that I’ve been using these

I bought one of these when in Brighton and was really impressed. Had I not done this I would probably not have made this much for 3 pencils. However, they are worth every penny! I barely have to touch the pencil to paper to make a mark, and I do draw lightly. My husband is always telling me to press on more, well now I don’t need to. I can’t see me going back to my other pencils anytime soon. They come unsharpened, but they sharpen easily and smoothly.

Always liked these pencils. Now finally putting them in a box of the three types is brilliant. You really do feel like your using a quality pencil

Treated myself to these on recommendation. Lovely pencils- not sure they’re worth the cost though!

I love these pencils. They flew so easily over the page either for writing or creating art. The eraser that is on the top rubs out easily and you can take the rubber out to increase the rubber size or to replace which you can also buy online. I use my pencils for both artwork and also got writing on musical scores as they write smoothly and doesn't mark the score permanently. Love them. They may be more than the average pencil but I'm a firm believer that you get what you pay for.

Love these pencils

Great pencils :) So glad I got them :) Awesome!
