Review on X ACTO Ranger Manual Pencil Sharpener by Lori Aguirre

Revainrating 3 out of 5

New "Old School " Pencil Sharpener

If you're looking for a durable, vintage-style pencil sharpener, this sharpener may just be what you're looking for. For me, the X-ACTO Ranger 55 manual sharpener was just what I needed. X-acto makes these devices based on old original models, so they are very close to the school pencil sharpeners that some of us remember from the 60's and 70's. As you might expect, the modern overseas version is made with slightly cheaper materials than the old "tank-built" units, but not to the point where the unit's looks become "cheaper". to keep the solid construction of the past, including double spiral cutting blades. The block works great. It sharpens eight different sizes of pencils quickly and smoothly. The glossy black finish fits perfectly into my vintage style office. The top of the chip case is adorned with a beautiful Ranger 55 logo print, completing the vintage look. I am very happy with this purchase and would highly recommend the X-ACTO Ranger 55 to anyone looking for a reliable and beautiful tool for their office.
