Review on Kutsuwa Adjustable Pencil Sharpener RS017GR by Nicole Mcleod

Revainrating 2 out of 5

but dulled a little sooner than I thought was appropriate

I had previously bought one of these sharpeners and it worked fine but dulled a little earlier than I thought. I speculated that this might be because I had sharpened a whole set of 150k crayons and thought that this might be causing the blade to wear out sooner than expected. I ordered another one and sharpened a couple of pencils as soon as I received it and this particular sharpener chews wood and breaks rods at higher settings, also does not sharpen at any settings other than settings #1 and 2. I am extremely disappointed. Maybe I got a bad sharpener, but how can I explain that the previous one did the same thing in such a short time? Unfortunately, I think this will be my last T'GAAL sharpener. I can still return it but I'm in the States and it was ordered from a third party in Japan. I don't even know if it's worth it. I can just accept the loss of $7 and move on.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Big and bulky
