Blackwing Pencils

Blackwing's story goes all the way back to the launch of the 602 in the 1930s. Relied upon by such notable artists as John Steinbeck, Stephen Sondheim, and Looney Tunes legend Chuck Jones, they were discontinued in 1998. Revived by Palomino in 2010, these modern Blackwings are softer than the 602, but exude similar quality, with the same iconic square ferrule and eraser. The standard Blackwing has a matte black finish and black eraser, while the Pearl has a white finish, white eraser, and slightly firmer graphite. Available in packs of 12 and made in Japan.

Sold as sets of 12.

For more than 400 years, the Banshu region of Japan has been the home of some of the most skilled artisan blacksmiths on earth.

Ideal for cutting fabric, thread, or canvas, the shears are also useful in the kitchen and garden. Each pair is presented in a wooden gift box and wrapped in a red and black cloth.

Ulu Knife

Dating back to 2500 BC, the Ulu style knife has surprisingly stayed under-the-radar through the years, despite its effortless versatility in the kitchen. This more modern interpretation of the Ulu Knife has been manufactured by Lamson in Massachusetts since 1837 and has remained virtually unchanged since it went in to production. Unlike a traditional kitchen knife that requires the user to constantly pick the blade up off the cutting surface, the Ulu Knife utilizes a natural rocking motion based on the shape of the blade. Slicing vegetables, meat, and even pizza is made effortless by the rocking motion of the blade, allowing for quicker and less taxing meal prep. A walnut handle is riveted on to the hardened and tempered high-carbon 420HC stainless steel blade, and each Lamson Ulu Knife is backed by a lifetime warranty.

Made in the USA

Anglepoise Original 1227 Desk Lamp

Innovative design and a timeless aesthetic have kept the Anglepoise Original 1227 illuminating workspaces for over 80 years — so naturally James Bond himself adorns his own flat with one, as seen in his most recent outing, Spectre. Also no stranger to Anglepoise is Bond's employer, as varying lighting sources from the British lamp maker can be seen on the desks of MI6 workers throughout other Bond films. Created by George Carwardine in 1935, the 1227 task light features his iconic tension spring mechanism that allows you to precisely position the light where it's needed. While the gloss paint finish comes in an almost-black "deep slate", the addition of solid brass components and a woven fabric cable transition this classic into any room, from a modern office to a handsome den.

That steel is turned to black in a highly secretive, hand-forging process that provides outstanding sharpness and edge retention.
