About this item
- 160 HIGH-QUALITY PAGES: Each of the 160 sheets in this notebook is made with 100 GSM, acid-free, ivory paper. The Blackwing Slate measures 5” x 8.25” in size, making it a portable pencil companion. This notebook comes in dot grid, blank, or lined pages that works great for bullet journals, pregnancy journals, daily journals, and for other types of creative uses.
- INCLUDES BLACKWING 602 PENCIL: The Slate features a built-in elastic band as a pencil loop that comes loaded with a Blackwing pencil, so you’ll always have a pencil handy. The Blackwing pencil is made from genuine incense cedar, Japanese graphite, aluminum ferrule, and our iconic square pink eraser.
- COMMITMENT TO QUALITY: Every Blackwing Slate is made in Turkey with the finest materials in the world. With a durable, water-resistant polyurethane cover and dual-sewn binding, the canvas spine allows this notebook to lie flat. It’s also the perfect size to carry in a purse, backpack, laptop bag, or elsewhere.
- NOTEBOOKS WITH HERITAGE: First created in the 1930s, Blackwing built a cult following that included John Steinbeck and Chuck Jones, the latter proudly using Blackwing pencils to create Bugs Bunny and many other Looney Tunes characters. Discontinued in the ‘90s, we revived the Blackwing brand in 2010 for a new generation of writers, musicians, and others. Since then, we've introduced a line of notebooks in harmony with the same quality as our Blackwing Pencils.
- HOW WE GIVE BACK: A portion of the sales from all Blackwing products benefit the Blackwing Foundation, which funds and develops art and music education at the K – 12 level. Your purchase helps provide, among other things, the instruction, learning environment, and instruments children need to participate in the Little Kids’ Rock Modern Band Program.

Each Blackwing notebook is made with 160 100 GSM, acid-free, ruled, ivory sheets. The Blackwing Slate measures 5” x 8.25” in size. |
Every Blackwing Slate is made with a durable, water-resistant polyurethane cover and dual-sewn binding. The canvas spine allows the notebook to lay flat for sketching, coloring, and creating. |
We included a high-quality Blackwing 602 pencil. The pencil holster on the spine can hold your Blackwing 602 so that you’re never without your writing instrument. |
The Possibilities Are Endless
Our ruled Blackwing Slate Journals are made with great attention to detail. We thought of all the details so you don’t have to!
Blackwing pencils were originally introduced by the Eberhard Faber Company in the 1930s. Their cult following included John Steinbeck and Chuck Jones, who proudly used Blackwings to create Bugs Bunny and many other Looney Tunes characters.
Despite this following, they fell victim to cost cutting measures of the 1990s and were discontinued. But, that didn’t stop devotees from paying as much as 40 dollars per pencil to seize unused stock. In 2010, our company drew from the nearly century of experience in the pencil business to access the best materials in the world and bring Blackwing back for a new generation of writers, musicians, and others seeking a more natural existence.
Today, a portion of every Blackwing sale benefits music and arts education at the K-12 level.

It takes fountain pen ink very well, with no feathering. It might be designed with the pencil in mind, but it's perfect for ink as well. It provides a very smooth sheet, with excellent, crisp lines. Like the Moleskine, it has an elastic strap to keep it closed, a back pouch, and a sewn in bookmark. Rather than the history of the notebook on a card in the pouch, it has the history of the pencil and an amusing list of "Places You Might Find a Blackwing 602" on the back end page. If it seems the book is an afterthought, it is because of the well-earned legendary status of the pencil. It improves on the Moleskine in that it has, not only a pencil loop, but an included pencil, and not just any pencil, but the Blackwing 602. If you have not yet tried this pencil, and you are at all interested in luxury writing instruments, you need to try this pencil. It's amazing.
If it seems the notebook is just an accessory for the pencil, that's because it pretty much is. The main goal is to give that legendary pencil a worthy surface to write on, and it succeeds that goal. My only complaint is that it does not come in a variety of colors, and I want a collection of these I can easily differentiate at a glance -- an unlined for a sketchbook, a lined for a writing book, a lined for a journal, etc. Maybe in the future they will offer that, but not at the time of this writing.
