I have been buying every type of sharpener i can find. The spare blades make this a great price. Excellent quality and it takes all the larger colored pencils artist use. Fantastic price.

Rated by: JIN YOUNG C. in Boston, MA

Those are very good for the needs of several different diameter pencils like Dixon Ticonderoga Laddie Pencils and Dixon Ticonderoga Beginners Pencils. But keep reach out of the children for the safety of the raw blades. If those blades are in safe separate containers that are not easy to open for kids, That would be more perfect.

This sharpener is by far the best of its kind that I've tried thus far. I got the single hole for working with graphite pencils and prismacolors. The replacement blade was impressive. I used to special order a German type but this one has that one beat all to shreds!!!

Wonderful Sharpener for the price. I have tried three types prior to this one, and finally found one that will sharpen our prisma color pencils without breaking.. also sharpens lead to a nice fine point.

I love these. I get a sharper point on my colored pencils with much less breakage than I was getting with my automatic sharpener. These are economical, especially since they come with extra blades, so I now use these exclusively instead of letting the automatic sharpener eat my pencils.

Not bad for a little sharpener. Nice that it comes w/ two extra blades, but they are easy to loose so be careful!

Rated by: ALEX S. in RESERVE, NM

A great sharpener for little cost!!

Rated by: Edie D. in Mongomery, AL

It sharpens the pencils to a good point. Better then other sharpeners I have found. I like being able to change the blade, instead of having to go out and buy another sharpener.

Poor. A butter knife will sharpen a pencil better then these.
