Review on Faber Castell Faber Catell Trio Sharpener Redblue Assorted by Karla Richter

Pencils don't reach a good (or even decent) point. It seemed to work with non-FC pencils for the first week, but never worked well with FC pencils. After about 40 hours of sporadic use, I can't get a decent tip out of any of my pens. Mainly used with Crayola, FC and Caran D'Ache pencils. Pictures: * View of the blade after 3 months of sporadic use (family draws/colors from time to time) * Picture of a pencil after trying to sharpen it with FC sharpener * Picture of 4 pencils - 3 sharpened with FC sharpener, one (white) regular sharpener from China with German blade * closeup of 4 pencils (white sharpened with another sharpener, others with FC sharpener) I don't recommend this sharpener. Mine may be defective, but I've tried all three blades in the sharpener with the same results. Compared to generics, this is just a bad product. The regular sharpener I used for the white pencil is dull but still better than the FC sharpener.
