I just found some Black Warriors today (to add to my black pencil collection) and thought they were a little on the scratchy side. I got a set of No. 2 HB - pre-sharpened like Prevo’s. I love the pink pearl erasers but I am wondering if the Black Warrior fans are using a softer grade than #2? I’m starting to doubt the “World’s Smoothest Writing Pencil” claim on the package, but am thinking maybe these would be better in a 4B?

A professor in my department uses the Black Warrior all the time. I guess it’s a good dark pencil for a phenomenologist, lol.

That’s a lucky find! My Office Max only has them in packs of eight, and they are already sharpened (yuck).

Oh yes, the Black Warrior. My ex used to work for lawyers who used BWs, and after one of the partners marked up a brief written by one of the younger lawyers, she lamented that she’d been “raped by the Black Warrior again!”

It’s the Black Warriors all the way for me! Oh, and I found ‘em at my local Office Max for not much more than that - $1.19/dozen or something like that. And didn’t have to wait for shipping!
