About the Edit Pencil Square black outline icon
An open square frame is broken at its top-right corner, where a long sharpened pencil lies diagonally across the gap with its tip pointing into the page and a rounded eraser end outside. It is the universal cue for edit, write and update, fitting profile settings, CMS record rows, note-taking apps, form fields and admin dashboard action menus.
The break in the frame is what sells the idea: the pencil looks like it is working on the page rather than resting beside it. The 45-degree angle matches other tool icons such as ruler and brush. At 16 px keep only the pencil and corner gap visible.
This is the black outline version of the edit pencil square 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.
