Grip Trio Manual Pencil Sharpener (Red or Blue) - Graphite, Jumbo and Colored Pencil Sharpener

Best pencil sharpener that I ever had. I bought it for my colored pencils and it works great. I’ve bought several as gifts and another for myself to make sure I have a backup in case of misplacing it.

It's a great sharpener that spreates the colors and your regular pencil scraps. It's easy to damp of and clean with big storage capacity.

This pencil sharpener is a hand-crank, manual pencil sharpener. It's durable with easy precision. It features a solid body, that is appreciated by a parent whose child is constantly breaking the plastic on other sharpeners. Designed to deliver a clean, centered point every time, it’s a favorite among teachers and illustrators alike. Has lasted two school years and counting!

The blades seem good and have delivered good results. I have no doubt over time the plastic hinge that attaches the two sides will wear and snap. But that doesn't mean the two sides won't still be useful - they just won't be attached anymore. Hardly a concern for the price and the good sharpening.

A "dependable" pencil sharpener? Why not?!! I need a quality pencil sharpener that can dependably sharpen standard pencils AND colored pencils without causing breakage. I have used this model pencil sharpener for years and bought this one for my on-the-go kit. Never disappoints. To make things even nicer, it is designed to collect and contain the pencil shavings until there is a convenient time and place to empty the collection cells. My favorite sharpener.

I really, really like this pencil sharpener! Let me count the ways... Three sharpening holes, which accommodate multiple pencil diameters and styles. I have some colored pencils which are quite thick (the Derwent being the most notable) and which do not fit a standard sharpener whole. i hate having to buy multiple sharpeners, so it was very nice that this one can accommodate both diameters. Two sharpening styles for standard diameter pencils. With some colored pencils, I like the core to be long and thin -- those are usually the ones that are oil-based (i.e., a harder core). For others like the really soft cored colored pencils (think Prismacolor), I prefer to expose less of the core. This sharpener can handle both. Sharpens to a very point tip! Holds a fair amount of shavings before emptying, which I appreciate, especially when coloring on the sofa! I like this particular sharpener so much that I have three of them -- the original that I am still using after a year, and two for backups -- I am not taking a chance that they will quit making them!

Have been looking for a good pencil sharpener for my colored pencils. Regular sharpeners just don't sharpen them right. This has a special colored pencils slot as well as regular pencils slot. Highly recommend. Easy to empty. Very durable. Great design.

I also have the Prismacolor and Steadtler sharpeners and I have to say that this Faber-Castel sharpener is the absolute best sharpener for all types of colored pencils. It sharpens your pencil to a Sharp point without sacrificing much of your pencil. The colored sharpener is in the top part when you open the sharpener which gives you a great angle for sharpening. This sharpener grips your pencil as you sharpen it. This gripping of the pencil keeps the leads from breaking and shapes it to a sharp point without any significant pencil loss. I have sharpened Prismacolor Soft Cores, Prismacolor Verithins, Steadtler colored pencils and Marco Raffine pencils and they all sharpened beautifully with this sharpener. The bottom compartment has a regular and jumbo slot for regular pencils. I bought this pencil sharpener because it is the sharpener Faber-Castel sells with their Polychromos. There are three colors: silver, red and blue and I received blue.
