Best thing since sliced bread…lol! I love this pencil sharpener! I am taking a drawing class and they suggest sharpening your pencil with a razor blade to get a long lead. After almost cutting myself I turned to Amazon to see what they might have. This sharpener does the trick and I have all ten fingers with no messy pencil shavings all over the place.

This is a very easy to use sketching pencil sharpener for those who like long lead and very sharp tip. I like it a lot better than having to carry around an electric sharpener. Just go down the row from biggest sharpener to small and you will have an excellent long lead with very sharp point sir you sketching.

This sharpener is perfect for a pencil artist that wants a lot of pencil lead exposed for special sharpening techniques as needed in art work. It includes sharpeners for different pencil lead sizes for different lead grades of pencils to be sharpened.With the extra lead exposed it is possible to then sharpen to a point with sandpaper or a lead pointer of appropriate size. One can also use the sanding pad to then sharpen to a beveled end.It comes with two sharpeners in a package that includes and extra blade it each. When a product comes along that really works. It is usually not available for very long. They are not that expensive, so buy extras to have later.

These carpenter long point pencil sharpeners offer a practical solution for achieving precise points on various pencils. The inclusion of four different sized holes caters to a range of pencil diameters, making them versatile for sketching, charcoal work, and colored pencils. The transparent plastic lid helps contain shavings, keeping your workspace cleaner. While they're manual sharpeners, requiring a bit more effort than electric models, their compact size and ability to create long, fine points make them a useful tool for artists and craftspeople who value precision.

Price was a little steep but you get 2. They are very nice. The holes are labeled A, S, M and L. I use the smallest hole (A) whenever I need to sharpen my 5.6 leads and it is perfect for that. M fits regular pencils. L is NOT large enough for children's primary pencils. It has a label on the side that is some kind of table but it's all in Chinese, I think. It comes with a spare blade taped to the inside, out of the way. I haven't played with it to sharpen pencils to create long points. That's next. So far, I'm happy with the quality and sturdiness.Update: I did try sharpening a brand new regular pencil to create a long point. It fit in the hole labeled "S" and it created a very long point, but not a sharp one, as other reviewers have mentioned. I did notice, however, that it has a rectangular piece of sandpaper glued inside, right behind the label. and that can be used to create the sharp point if you want. For me, still 5 stars.

I used it following the video on How to use the product. Do that as it is clear from some comments that people didn't catch it and didn't understand how to use it correctly.Start with the largest whole and sharpen your pencil down through ALL the openings. The smallest one, After the one marked "s" is for sharpening just the lead itself. I had to go back & forth btwn different openings to fine tune the sharpening, eg the medium and the small, the small and the tiny opening.The sand paper inside is for the lead itself, for cleaning up just the lead itself up to a sharper point. Gave it a 4 (3.5) star rating for the following reasons: There are other long point sharpeners I have used before that I found better.It will likely work a little bit better on smaller sized graphite leads. It worked well enough on the polychromos color pencil with an overall thicker lead dimension (~4mm versus ~2mm for graphite drawing pencils). If you look closely at the tip in the photo you will see the 'edging' created by the sharpener because the lead is 4mm. That can be taken care of with the sand paper. You can also see on the 3 pic the tip fo the graphite pencils are actually blunt, so again, you'll need to use the sandpaper to finish that off. The middle pencil also has some of the wood casing left on it. That came off easily enough with my fingernail and may be happening because these were previously sharpened the 'traditional artist way' with a pen knife.Works well enough for now. And there is a spare blade taped to the inside of the case.

Does the job if the pencil wood is of good quality. If not, the lead will break. My biggest complaint is that the lid comes off to easily while sharpening.
