The other day I was Googling around trying to see if I could find a some place where I could buy a single 602 Palomino Blackwing pencil (I just wanted to try one) and ended up finding the coolest site: Hand-Eye Supply – and they also happen to be an Exaclair retailer. This Portland, OR company has both an online store and a retail location and unfortunately, now I want to buy EVERYTHING they carry.
Like this Red Clouds Collective round suede pencil case (Made in Portland, OR)
or this Orox Leather CO. measuring tape (also made in Portland, OR)
or these sweet Klein Tools canvas zippered bags… (they come in orange!)
But the item I love the most? This Italian made USAG tool box. I want to carry my art supplies in it!
New to Hand-Eye Supply? Go check ’em out and while you’re there, grab a few Rhodia’s for the road.
Their retail shop is located at:
HAND-EYE SUPPLY
23 NW 4TH AVE
PORTLAND, OR 97209
TEL: 503-575-9769

So where do we find just one Blackwing for sale? I’m with you. Cool store you found, for sure.
What an awesome link! How have I missed this place?
Cool store. I just want to try to Palomino too. :)
