“I was looking for the Blackwing Palomino but decided to try the matte. Yes they are lovely to write with, need to be sharpened regularly but have a lovely odour when sharpened and they sharpen so easily, never breaking. A soft graphite gives a smooth flow and supports fine work as well as bold writing styles.”
“These pencils are so soft and creamy to use and they shade so well. You can use this pencil alone for shading and create every grade of shade you may need and all without graphite shine!”
