## Overview

The KUTSUWA STAD T'GAAL is a compact, angle-adjustable pencil sharpener crafted in Japan, featuring 5 dial settings for precise tip customization. Its translucent black body houses a sliding shutter to contain shavings, ensuring a clean workspace. Designed for both soft and hard leads, it delivers consistent, professional sharpening in a portable, ergonomic form.

## Description

Japanese KUTSUWA STAD T'GAAL is a compact portable pencil sharper that can adjust sharpening angle and length in 5 different settings with a simple turn of a dial. For a sturdier tip, with less lead breakage, set the dial to a lower number such as 1 or 2. Shorter pencil tip is recommended for softer lead such as color pencils or for short pencils such as golf pencils and half pencils. To obtain a longer lead tip, set the dial to a higher number. Longer lead point lasts longer before having to sharpen again and is suitable for harder lead pencils. With any angle the dial is set to, this angle adjustable manual pencil sharpener produces a perfect sharp point every time. When not in use, set the dial to “close” so the shutter slides down and keeps the pencil shavings from falling out of the hole. Contoured body fits comfortably in your hand and conveniently holds pencil shavings before it needs dumping. These unique sharpeners are available in translucent purple, translucent blue and translucent black. Made in Japan.

Review: The STAD T'GAAL Adjustable Angle Sharpener is the BEST - The Kutsuwa STAD T'GAAL adjustable-angle pencil sharpener is superior to other hand-held, compact sharpeners I've tried (including upscale, big-name aluminum-cast, stylish sharpeners costing quintuple the price). Lately, I've taken to collecting free IKEA pencils to be used as sharpener testers since so many hand-held sharpeners have been disappointing. I wasn't willing to sacrifice my favorite pencils when trying out new sharpeners anymore. I was surprised at how well the STAAD T"GAAL sharpened! I used the STAD T'GAAL consistently for months—day after day. It sharpened Staedtler, Faber-Castell, Blackwing, Mitsubishi, Derwent, Tombow, Caran d'Ache, and Prismacolor (and free IKEA pencils) beautifully. The results were impressive across all grades: 9H to 2H, F, HB, and 2B to 9B. The STAD T'GAAL sharpener has five different sharpening angle settings. Options One and Two produce a shorter, sturdier tip (perfect for colored pencils). Options Three to Five produce a more extended, sharper, long-point (great for harder lead graphite pencils). It's lightweight and the perfect hand-held size: 2.5"/ 63mm x 1"/27mm.
Review: This sharpener is great! - This is one very nice sharpener! It’s adjustable, it’s quiet, it’s easy to use, it’s small, it works wonders on sketching pencils to have that high point and prismacolors for that perfect blunt point. It’s very easy to use, it’s a great manual sharpener and it gets the job done fast. Easy to carry and very portable. It doesn’t have the biggest holding chamber in it so emptying it is a frequent thing which is its only flaw. I would definitely buy this again because of the prismacolors.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I plan on sharpening soft core colored pencils. Does it matter what setting i use? My goal is to avoid lead breakage. Thanks.**
A: I sharpen Prismacolor Premier pencils, Prismacolor Scholar, Derwent Coloursoft and the Derwent blender/burnisher with the T'gaal. I love this sharpener!! I tend to use setting 3 to 5 - the number is really more what kind of point you want, with 3 being a wider sharp and 5 narrowest. When I use the #5 setting on Prisma Verithins they look like lethal weapons lol! ;) Seriously, breakage is not usually a problem. Just make sure you don't drop your pencils on the floor or let them bang around while stored. Also I have heard if you suspect your lead is broken (which is what makes it break when you sharpen), try putting in the microwave for a few seconds at a time. I would start at 15 and check often, you don't want it to to melt completely since they are already soft. Remember to hold your pencil firmly so you sharpen with a round motion and not side to side. Hope this helps. Happy coloring! :)

**Q: Please, what are the 5 different angles? I need 30 degrees.**
A: I can't find any angles so I used the picture supplied, using the point as the angle you need, and measured the perpendicular axis as the adjacent side, measured then halved the pencil width for the opposite side and used the tan function to determine the angle (which had to be doubled to get the answer); given it was measured off a blown up picture and the likely measure / distortion errors inherent in the method employed, Here are the answers I got by Position: 1 = 42'  / 2 =  35' / 3 = 30' / 4 = 25' / 5 = 20'; my guess would be to try positions 2 and three and judge which one gives the best result.

**Q: But does it sharpen the thicker pencils, like polychromos and derwent?**
A: Yes, it will sharpen Derwent Coloursoft and Inktense colored pencils, Polychromos, Prismacolor, Prismacolor Verithins, Marco Renoir and Marco Raffiné, and quite an array of Chinese brands of oil-. Water-, and wax-based colored pencils quite nicely. I think that maybe something a little thicker than the Inktense pencils from Derwent might not work, as the actual size of the pencil is not adjustable, just the angle of the tip that is created adjusts, from a very slim sharp point that would be used for harder-cored pencils such as the Prisma Verithins, to a shorter, thicker but no less pointy at the end, soft-core pencil such as the Prismacolor Premier 150 soft core, the Derwent Inktense or Coloursoft pencils. 

I just ordered two more of these, as my daughter seems to have made off with my original two for her costume and art design enterprises. I highly recommend this line of pencil sharpeners for at the very least the above-mentioned colored pencils. It would also work well for graphite pencils and charcoal pencils as well.

**Q: Are there any other sharpeners (hand crank or electric) that can deliver the shorter, sturdier tip that Setting #1 gives?**
A: I’ve never found one, except for very expensive ones that I wasn’t about to buy for cheap golf pencils.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great sharpener
*by G***S on February 6, 2026*

This is the best hand held pencil sharpener I've had!! If you use color pencils it works great for them. The sharpening looks like the pencils when you buy them originally... Sharp point but not tons of lead so the tip doesn't break easily. Would buy this again!!
