Customer Reviews

Not so pleased...
I was thrilled when I got the sharpener. It looked just like those really sturdy ones at school. I assured my kids that we finally had a dependable pencil sharpener.

But within 2 weeks the front panel (holds different circumferences of pencils) came undone, can't tighten any screws or bolts. It just hangs there.

It sharpens, but it's not so great. It wasn't nearly as hardy as I thought it would be.

Now THIS is a pencil sharpener!
Ah, this little gem brings back memories of primary school... no motorized sharpeners, not clumsy, lead-breaking single bladed hand helds... no, this is a true old-school 12 rotary blade sharpener that does the trick EACH and every time. The point is a more gentile slope with a nice point, rather than the abrupt slope of the blade sharpeners, which makes for a nicer lead and longer span between sharpenings.

With two kids in primary and a wife that loves her crosswords, we go through pencils and this baby keeps them sharp. Sturdy, nice looking, two mounting options (Mine is upside-down under a counter... out of the way) you can't go wrong.

The whole family loves it!
This is a solid buy for manual pencil sharpeners. Good design, easy to use, has the ability to mount permanently or just temporary. My six year old can use it as well as my husband and I. Worth the money.
