Great addition to the growing collection. Protect sharpened points and the quality is just as I'd expect from Blackwing. Compared to plastic guards I've had in the past I love the weight and the added protection the metal construction offers.

Must have for pocket pencil people
I bought one of these on a whim, and it solved a problem I'd been trying to figure out for a long time. I wanted a simple way to carry a sharp pencil in my pocket without worrying about breaking the point—or poking myself. This cap was exactly what I needed. Now I can comfortably carry a sharp pencil every day, always ready when an idea or sketch needs to come to life. I chose the white version, and it's holding up like a champ. The little bit of patina and wear it has developed only adds character and makes it feel even better with daily use. Simple, practical, and one of those purchases that ends up getting used every single day.
