The types of games we play and the way we play them have evolved. Some of the earliest tabletop games – like chess, mancala, and senet – were games of strategy. Today, math, language, storytelling, and more help forge unique game play experiences for countless different games.

With just a pencil, notebook, and a set of dice, you can become a real estate tycoon, a wordsmith, or an adventurer on a quest. You can team with others to solve a mystery, or build the ultimate baseball team to crush the competition. The only limit is your imagination… and the rules of the game, of course.

Blackwing 20 celebrates tabletop games and the cherished moments they can create with a collection of game-inspired items:

• The Vol. 20 Pencil features a raised polyhedron design inspired by gaming dice, a gold ferrule, gold imprint, and a red eraser. Each pencil contains our firm graphite core, perfect for keeping track of hit points or tallying a final score.
• Vol. 20 Point Guard not only protects pencil points, it’s inspired by the six-sided die used in tabletop games. Each side of the point guard features a white pip numbering 1 through 6, so it can be rolled like dice at to play a game or make a decision on the go.
• The Vol. 20 Hex Grid Legal Pad is the first to feature a hex grid that includes both 1-inch and 5-per-inch hexes, perfect for both mapping out your tabletop adventures or as a unique grid for drawing and note-taking. Available in packs of 2. Each pad contains 50 pages of 80 GSM ivory paper that is sewn-bound and perforated.
