Review on Staedtler 428748 Manual Pencil Sharpeners Silver 4-Pack - Efficient Sharpening Tool by Kristen Simpson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

GREAT STRONGER, SIMPLE, AFFORDABLE

I highly recommend the Staedtler manual pencil sharpener. This puts the perfect point on the pencil. Just insert a pencil, take it to the trash can, and spin. It's small - keep it in your desk drawer. Made to last - metal, not plastic. With a pack of five, I can keep 2-3pcs on the table, one in the kitchen, one for makeup, eyebrow touch-up, eyeliner. So cheap! I sharpen my pencils regularly. I use a variety of landscape pencils and they need to be sharp. I sharpen them before use and sometimes 2 or 3 times during a project. So I need a great pencil sharpener. From now on I only use manual sharpeners made of metal. Don't waste your money on electric or battery powered sharpeners. Both are noisy, expensive, slow, breaking points, taking up desktop space and ending up in a landfill. Those that run on batteries are weak and drain batteries quickly. Plugins are good, but they don't always give a good result. My old plugin was slow and made a groaning noise as it struggled to do its job. I think I got my point. 😁 Metal Manual Pencil Sharpener - Good. Electronic - bad. My old plugin was slow and made a groaning noise as it struggled to do its job.
