It's a Simple Thing
It's a simple thing, a manual pencil sharpener, but there was thought and care taken in its design an execution by the Staedtler people. And as a result, it works better than you might imagine. And that it has two types - two angles - of sharpening, one for graphite and one for colored pencils, Again, thoughtful design.

Great sharpener
Our cats used the two part sharpener for a toy and conveniently lost the bottom of the sharpener that holds the shavings. With this one the bottom needs to be released in order to be emptied. It's heavier, too, so the cats don't find it as inviting to play with. The blades are positioned perfectly and the holes are exactly the right size so that sharpening is perfect.

Very solid pencil sharpener. I think this is the most durable portable sharpener that I have ever owned.

Sharpener
Pretty disappointed in this sharpener. Not very satisfied with the point once sharpened but the biggest disappointment is how yo open the whole thing to dump the trash out once you sharpen a pencil. I see a place where the arrow directs to move to open, but it doesn’t budge. Trash right now.

Staedtler Pencil Sharpener
Although I haven’t used it yet, there’s no doubt in my mind that this will be a top notch product, especially since it’s made in Germany.

Beats the traditional tiny sharpener
I find that traditional sharpener disappear very quickly. This sharpener is about 2 inches high and the same in width. To finish the sharpening I find it works putting in the “graphic/graphic”—it works better

Best pencil sharpener ever!
I love this pencil sharpener. It’s very sharp and does a great job.
The two different size holes are handy for different types of pencils.
I get a great point every time!

I love it, its very simple but I like that it has a cup and a fold-down top cap to gather up the shavings and keep them from spilling in your bag. Takes 2 sizes of pencils.
