Review on πŸ“ IRWIN Carpenter Pencil Sharpener (233250): Precision Sharpening for Carpentry Pencils by Sasha Hsiao

Revainrating 4 out of 5

That's convenient!

So I've been a carpenter for 15 years. I do house renovations. So my measurements and cuts have to be absolutely correct. Because the materials I work with are very expensive, a bad cut is very bad for business. The only way my measurements and cuts can be correct/perfect is if I have a sharp pencil to make an accurate mark. Sometimes when you sharpen a pencil with a razor you break the lead and have to start over. Which I think is extremely annoying. So this tool is very handy because you are much less likely to break the charge with it. The only reason it gets 4 stars instead of 5 is that it doesn't sharpen the pencil tip, it just gets you to the point where you can fine tune the tip with a knife without breaking the lead.

Pros
  • Pencil consumption 50% less per sharpening cycle.
Cons
  • Some errors
