## Questions & Answers

**Q: I too have never heard of these, & like one reviewer I love writing instruments. Is the long point sharpener a must?**
A: No. But I bought one anyway. Being an Artist I have more erasers, manual and electric than any one person needs. But whatever, I had to TRY it. 😂 It's not a must. I use what is at hand. They sharpen nicely with just about anything. I have at least ten different Blackening pencils. The leads a very sturdy whether you use a traditional point sharpener or a long point sharpener. They are made to reduce constant sharpening for those of us who love a sharp point. The erasers are extendable, fabulous and replaceable! $2.99 for a ten pack in lots of colors at the website. Best pencils everrrrr.

**Q: Do these smear on paper/hands (Left handed person asking)**
A: I have not used them much yet, but I believe because of their creamy softness, they would smear rather easily. As a lefty, do you ever put a clean sheet of scrap paper under your hand when drawing to keep the paper clean?

**Q: In school #2 pencils have to be used for test.  Are these #2?  My son really wants them.**
A: They're certainly darker than #2, which means they're fine for tests. The #2 requirement is to ensure students don't use lighter pencils which the test-reading machines may fail to "see," but Blackwings are quite dark. They are also erasable, in case he has second thoughts about an answer (the reason #2 pencils are preferred over pens is that pens are not erasable).

**Q: How does the Blackwing compare to the Mirado Black warrior and the Black Ticonderoga?**
A: The Blackwing writes faster and smoother than either of those options. Honestly, I have had bad luck with the Mirado Black Warrior lead being "scratchy" on the paper, and I strongly dislike the Mirado's eraser. I've only ever had one "bad" Black Ticonderoga but it's the one I'm using now. But the Blackwing is still far smoother than the Ticonderoga. It also has a darker line, but it stays sharp just as long. The quality of the finish is also better if that matters to you, with a matte black very sharp paint.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tolle Stifte gute Qualität
*by S***A on 17 September 2020*

Ich mache Kunst beruflich und hab schon viel von den eistiften gehört. Es sind auf jeden Fall die teuersten Bleistifte die ich mir bisher gekauft habe aber wenn man mal sich selbst etwas besonderes holen will oder vielleicht jmd von dem man weiß das er künstlerisch ein schönes Geschenk machen will kann man sich die auf jedenfall gönnen. Habe direkt ein paar kleine Skizzen damit gemacht eine hab ich hier auch an gehangen. Die Mienen sind sehr weich und man kann super gut verschiedene Schattierungen damit machen. Der Radierer hinten am Stift ist mega und ich würde ihn mit den Künstler Radierer von Faber-Castell vergleichen gleiche Qualität lvl. Die Bleistifte fühlen sich eher an wie ein B bis 2B vom härtegead würde ich sagen. Ich bin super schnell durch meinen 1. Bleistift durch was aber auch einfach daran liegt das ich echt gern damit zeichne weil es ein angenehmes mal gefühl ist. Dennoch muss ich sagen sie brauchen sich sehr schnell auf da sie eben recht weich sind und ich sie daher öfters anspitzen muss. Der costumer service war super mir wurde direkt die Rechnung per Email zugeschickt und sie waren in kürzester Zeit geliefert. Alles in allem ein kleiner Luxus für das Künstlerherz und für mich das Geld wert aber kein essential :) dennoch mit die besten Bleistifte die ich besitze
