About the Edit black outline icon
A long pencil, complete with a sharpened tip, a banded ferrule at the back and a barrel drawn as two parallel lines, lies at 45 degrees across the top-right corner of a rounded square, and the frame breaks open where the pencil passes through it. The gap makes the editing action feel live rather than decorative, so it works for edit buttons, note apps, profile and settings screens, CMS toolbars and inline rename controls.
The pencil runs corner to corner on the diagonal, leaving the frame's lower-left half intact as a balanced counterweight, and both use the same stroke weight. It pairs naturally with trash, save, copy and share icons in an action bar. At 20 px and below use the filled variant so the pencil tip does not disappear.
This is the black outline version of the edit icon: even, monoline strokes that stay crisp at small sizes and suit clean, minimal interfaces, wireframes and light backgrounds.
It downloads free as an SVG vector or transparent PNG in seven sizes, and the free online editor lets you recolor it, apply gold, silver, neon and gradient styles, add animation, or convert it to EPS, PDF and DXF.
