Didn't really like this
I don't really like this sharpener. It's a 3 hole sharpener which opens up so the shavings go inside. I don't know if I just have the wrong pencils but the only one that sharpens is the large hole which I imagine is for chunky pencils, but my chunky pencils don't fit. It does sharpen my standard pencils but it's a fiddle. I found it hard to open and sharpen straight into the box as the whole unit comes out when you open it and you have to fiddle to use it. Disappointing.

Good sharpener but doesn't last.
This pencil sharpener is good at getting a fine point and there are 3 options of holes to use. However, you need to reshapren a lot and the blade does go blunt after a few weeks of use so buy a few of them.

Very nice pemcil sharpener
This product is the main pencil sharpener i use. It leaves my pencils very pointy and let's me draw thin lines. However the effect doesn't last long and after several days I need to purchase a new pencil sharpener because it starts to damage my pencils. I guess it's because I use it a lot. In overall view the product is just all right.

3 sizes, fantastic
Bought this because my usual sharpener won't be big enough for my Derwent Inktense pencils. The 'jumbo' size of this sharpener is bigger than needed and sharpens them very well. The smaller hole labelled 'graphite' is great for my woodless watercolours and the main 'colour' one is great for all my colouring pencils. Makes a really nice point on my pencils. The case is really easy to unclip and open for sharpening and for emptying too. Couldn't be happier!

Love It
Brilliant sharpener! So glad I got this. The blades inside are perfectly sharp and I have had no breakages in my Polychromos, Brutfuner, Prismacolor, Castle Arts or Derwent Coloursoft.
It has 3 different sized blades which are labeled and even a larger one for larger pencils.
It opens and closes perfectly ans hold alot of sharpenings.

Well worth the money!
This pencil sharpener is the best I have ever bought. I was a little dubious at first as I think I paid £5 for it, but I was so fed up with cheaper ones that didn't work that I went for it and am very pleased I did. It has 3 different holes for sharpening, small, large and colour (the one for 'colour' works really well with Kohl pencils) and crucially collects the sharpenings too. Since the first one, I have bought 2 more for my children and am thrilled they even seem to be cheaper this time. Buy it, you won't regret it.

Great Sharpener, Great Price.
I’ve been trying to find a decent Sharpener that doesn’t break after a short while or break my pencils while sharpening & this is it for me. It sharpens my pencils beautifully & has a descent size barrel to keep the shavings in. It has 3 different size sharpeners & was a great price. I’ll be looking at other items of this brand.

Versatile and effective.
Another fantastic product from Germany’s Faber Castell range. Essential for people who use the colour grip pencils as this sharpens them unlike anything else but also contains two other sharpening points so this really is great for all standard pencils as well. Easy to use and holds lots of sharpenings between emptying.
