STAEDTLER 512 001 Double-Hole Tub Sharpener for Graphite & Colour Pencils up to 10.2mm Diameter (1 x Sharpener)

I'm glad I selected a better quality pencil sharpener and deliberately selected Staedtler with it being a long-standing and reliable brand. I wasn't disappointed, this is an attractive "tub" and works perfectly. I sharpened several pencils and each came out with a decent, sharp point on the lead, and there was no breakage of the lead. The tub itself holds the shavings and so can be emptied when needed. To use, lift the plastic lid on the top to access the holes. When it is time to empty, press the black button on the side and carefully pull the top from the bottom (making sure you don't tip any shavings out). It is a bit stiff but likely that is because this is new and it will loosen over time with wear. A tiny bit more expensive than other similar products on the marketplace but I feel it was worth paying a little extra for something that is good quality.

This sharpener has sharpened my colouring pencils and normal graphite pencils with absolute ease. Nice and sharp with no tearing or breakages. I decided that I would go for a sharpener made for a pencil manufacturer. That, to me, ensured it had a lot to loose if it didn't perform well. I was right, it works perfectly.

Decent pencil sharpener and does the job well. The only trouble I have is I cannot open the sharpener to empty the shavings. It’s very difficult.

Very good sharpener, recommend, especially for artists and colorers.

Best pencil sharpener I’ve bought yet! Super easy to use and empty, tidy and doesn’t snap pencil lead like many others.

Good quality product. The blades are sharp and give a good point to pencils without breaking the leads and leaving a good clean point. Nice size and fits into my travel art kit easily. Better quality than other pencil sharpeners I have had.

A super pencil sharpener. I even watched a little video about sharpeners. Who knew that you turn the actual sharpener and not the pencil, 60 years of turning the pencil. Anyway. It’s sharp, and is working a treat. Update: Mar26. I’ve been using this for about 8-9 months now and it’s just super. I sharpen almost every day and it’s still as sharp as ever. Empties easily, once you have the knack of pushing the ribbed bit on the side. It’s super.

Sharpens pencils well very difficult to open to empty the shavings.

探していました。 子供用の太めの三角鉛筆がしっかり削れます。三角鉛筆に付属されてる鉛筆削りでも削れないものがありますが、これはおすすめです。 削りカス入れ付いてない頃から愛用してます

These seem to be a good quality product. I like the detail such as how the flip lid fits perfectly into the side slot. It's definitely better than the cheaper ones I've tried; and the blade stops working after a few sharpenings. The reservoir for the shavings is also a good, practical size compared to some others (not too big, not too small), and the lid is on quite securely so that I don't suddenly and annoyingly dump and spread shavings all over. The transparent plastic is also handy for monitoring how full it is. It's worth a couple more bucks for these I think.

Simple robust build does its job well

parfait, taille crayon de qualité

Les deux usages de ce taille-crayon sont hyper pratiques. Je l'utilise pour tailler des crayons aquarellables de mines 3,3 mm et 3,8 mm et les mines ne cassent pas.
