The Blackwing 651 is a tribute to the lengendary Bruce Lee. Both simple and direct, each pencil features a black and yellow striped design that takes its cues from the philisophies of Jeet Kune Do, Bruce Lee's art.
The number 651 is derived from 651 S. Weller Street in Seattle, where Bruce Lee opened his first formal school. The extra-firm graphite is ideal for writing notes.
The mythical Palomino pencil, the Blackwing, produced by Eberhard Faber in the United States until 1998 is again available for fans, this time produced in Japan with the same quality (with cedar wood).
Indeed relaunched in 2005, the iconic Eberhard Faber Blackwing Pencil is a favorite of creatives and fictional characters like Mad Mens Kinsey and Jaws' Matt Hooper. The Blackwing Pencil is ideal for soft and dark lines.
