Maped - Classic - 2-Hole Metal Pencil Sharpener

I'm impressed. I had 4 other different kinds of sharpeners and all of them were cracking my colored pencils and regular pencils and I won't even start on how hard it is to find a good sharpener for my watercolor colored pencils. It worked amazing. Good quality! It It is really sharp and works flawlessly.

This is great. Sharpen pencils beautifully.

All metal, no plastic, works fine. Doesn’t have a built in “collection compartment.” You don’t need it. You would have to walk to the trash can and empty it anyway. Just sharpen the pencil over the trash can.

Beautifully designed and manufactured sharpener, works extremely well.

I tested it a couple of times, works well. Tossing it mainly in my fire starting kit to make fine shavings with small sticks. You can unscrew the blades out to sharpen them which is a plus.

When I was a kid, there was no such thing as a pencil sharpener that didn't work, but today, every piece of garbage I tried just break the pencil point. I decided to spend a little more on this metal version and it brought back memories of not having to worry about using a portable pencil sharpener. Work like a charm every single time. Don't try to get any fancy looking garbage from you know what country. Get this one.

As a finish carpenter, I use a pencil a lot. I need to sharpen my pencil dozens of times a day and these are great. I carry these every day and prefer these over all others. I highly recommend these sharpeners.

This sharpener is amazing and sharpens so smoothly and accuratly with a perfect tip every time. As an art teacher, I am in love and am recommending it to my students. Such a nice quality product for such an economical price! This is a home run in my book!

Good product. It is made of metal.

Sacapuntas con dos agujeros de diferente diámetro, afila muy bien, es metálico en todo su conjunto, es el típico sacapuntas que todos hemos tenido alguna vez, el precio es bastante bueno.

Maravilhoso

Another quality product from Maped. Don't be fooled by its sleek and simple design; this understated little prism sharpener is more than meets the eye. With a solid aluminum alloy cast body the model #006700 is a hefty beast that will last for decades to come. The dual pencil alignment guide holes for any sized pencil or pencil crayon are each united with blades which have been made in house at their Chinese location to ensure a rigorous standard of construction is maintained throughout the product. Speaking of maintenance, should the high carbon steel blades render dull after years of unrivaled obedience, the standard #1 Phillips head screws - accented in a rich glossy black - can be easily removed for blade sharpening or replacement. While installing the blades you will notice 2 precision placed tenons which will dovetail into the groves in the blade for perfect alignment. We've all used low quality pencils before and know the horrors of sharpening the tip only to have it break off due to cheap construction or abuse to the delicate graphite inside. Well Maped have thought of that too. Open ends to both sharpening chambers ensures any loose led will fall out naturally and we can continue sharpening without missing a turn. Yes this truly is a masterly crafted tool for professionals and enthusiasts alike. The heat treated layer of metallic silver paint adds dimension to the piece and allows light to play off of its ergonomic design. Enclosed sharpeners are often praised for their easy disposal of waste but Maped have gone with the right choice as an open body design allows fast sharpening and easy trouble shooting. Not only will you enjoy using this essential tool for years, your children will enjoy its unmatched design and quality and pass it along to future generations. The nature of this tool is to facilitate creativity and expertise. You are not just investing in a pencil sharpener, you are investing in yourself.

Love it, sharpeness really good.
