Description
There’s nothing quite like sharpening your pencil to perfection—only for the tip to snap in your bag moments later. The Blackwing Point Guard puts a stop to that. Crafted from lightweight, machined aluminium, it slips easily over the end of your pencil and holds firm once it reaches the unsharpened wood. Just a quarter-inch push is all it takes.
No more lead dust, broken tips, or rogue graphite on your belongings. Whether it’s stashed in your pencil roll or clipped inside your Blackwing Slate, you can trust your pencil will stay sharp, clean and ready when you need it. You’ll never have to fish around for a working point again.
The three-pack offers better value too—at the time of writing, it’s practically one free.
Top Features:
- Protects your pencil tip without a case or sheath
- Fits securely with a quick push—no twisting or slipping
- Lightweight and compact, made from solid aluminium in multiple colours

Questions
Blackwing Point Guard Set of 3 (1 of each colour)
These are worth the money to protect my precious pencils in my bag. No more snapped leads, the point is maintained and ready to use straight away. They fit smoothly over the tip of the pencil and stay on securely yet somehow come off easily when they need to.

I love the pencils and wanted to take care of them as best I could - these are perfect as substantially made (other point guards seem flimsy and poorly made) - fit perfectly and do exactly what they are supposed to!
