Great for Pastel Pencils and normal pencils
I draw with Pastel Pencils and they are so difficult to sharpen, they are exspensive an quite delicate. I have tried so many normal sharpeners and they blunt after a short time and the pencils often break. I saw someone using this type of sharpener on You Tube and decided to give it a try. It's brilliant I get a lovely point on the pencils and they don't break inside. Very pleased with this sharpener.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Not good for some pastel pencils
Disappointed as I wanted to use it for pastel pencils and found that some of my pencils were too thick for them. I will use it for standard graphite pencils though.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Best one I've tried so far for pastel pencils
Good fine points on a variety of pencils. Takes a bit of getting used to as you can snap off the lead, but best one so far.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Cheap & cheerful but works brilliantly
Bought this item after seeing it reviewed on you tube and must say, this is a cracking little sharpener. Using it for pastel pencils and it’s so easy to use & obtain a good sharp point without breakages.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Very capable sharpener
If you are like me tired of pencil sharpening and looking for a simple and effective solution then you have found it! I am thankful to an YouTube video, I watched before buying it. I would advise you to do a search and watch it too. It did jam only once but to be fair to it someone had tried to sharpen the same pencil before me and left a broken tip detached from the rest of the pencil core. If this happens to you just open it up and clean it - not a complicated task. Hope this helpsVerified purchase: YesCondition: New

Really sharpens pencils
A lovely piece of kit. Well made and does a superb job, sharpening colour pencils as well as graphite. No broken points. Not wasteful: stops when the point has been achieved. Sent incredibly quickly too.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Works well on good quality pastels
Because most sharpeners aren’t any good for pastel pencils. This has a cross thread cutter and sharpened my pastels really well without chewing them up or breaking the pastels.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Yep, one happy customer
Love it. Ive been using a graphite pencil to keep the cutting edge honed. No complains so far. I love this little sharpener. Head and shoulders above those where you twist the pencil.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
