Long Point Professional Electric Pencil Sharpener - Heavy Duty Rechargeable for Art Drawing and Sketching - Artists Supplies for Prismacolor Colored & Soft Carbon Pencils

For a long time, I have been using professional grade charcoal pencil. A lot of effort is used up sharpening. This not only breaks the rhythm but also wastes material.After looking at the review and seeing the uploads I decided to order. Packaging is ok and was delivered well.The sharpener exceeded expectation. Before usage, I sufficiently charged it. Then tried it on a few pencils with both the modes.Now what usually used to take 20 minutes takes 30 seconds. Cleaning is also easy.Wonderful product and a MUST HAVE for artists using pencil charcoal medium.

I love this item my thanks to Amazon, peach imports LLP&DTDC Corier yes it is value for money &studiness especially model

I have just tested this sharpener upon receiving, and I am thoroughly impressed. I used the cheapest pencils I have which I gave up on, due to them constantly breaking no matter what sharpener I tried using. I also added a Derwent pastel pencil, because it had the same issue. I never expected the sharpener to work on soft charcoal and pastel, but it absolutely did! I should say that in the past I was very impressed with a Derwent mechanical sharpener that also provides a very long tip to a pencil. I only started looking for a new one because my faithful Derwent started showing signs of "getting old" and not bringing good results anymore. I know I can use graphite to re-sharpen the blades of it, but it was an excuse to check what's out there, which is how I stumbled on this electric sharpener. And wow. Even my Derwent could not handle the very soft pencils, I would end up using a manual pastel sharpener and even that barely worked. I've never seen such a long tip even as an option for charcoal and pastel! I'm now looking forward to trying it out on my Prismacolors, which, as all of us pencil nerds know, has an ongoing issue of continuous breakage.Notes about the usage itself: it is very simple and convenient. The two types of tip modes and the way you combine them allow for some versatility in the style of the tip. The basic instructions are as the manual says: sharpen twice using both modes to get a long as well as sharp tip, or just one of the modes as suits you. It's super easy. The automatic stop does work. The only thing you need to pay attention to is that when you rotate the top, sometimes it feels like it can't move anymore but actually it can. So if for some reason you push the pencil and it doesn't start sharpening, it means you need to adjust the mode just slightly more until you're in the correct spot, and then you're good to go.Overall, despite the cost it is a well worth investment, considering how much additional usage I can get from my pencils. I'm sorry now that I didn't get this sharpener sooner, because so many of my pencils have been wasted on failing attempts to sharpen them....the money I could've saved on buying new ones would've well justify the price of this fancy sharpener.

I find this to be the best sharper ever for both graphite and colored pencils. Once you get the feel of it. It is very easy to use. I found it best to stop feeding the pencil in after a brief time. Then resetting the adjustment to its original setting to release the pencil. This setting may start to change when you stop sharpening. If you desire a little more point do it again. It is easy to get use to. This sharpener works so well for me that I ordered a second one for backup. I have used other Afmat sharpeners as well as many other brands. This review does not apply to the other models. This depends of course on how you want your pencil sharpened. This varies with different individuals. I have not tried it with charcoal pencils. The instructions state that it can be used with an 8B or harder pencils. Instructions also say not to sharpen caulk. It is suppose to be self clearing if a lead breaks. I have never broke a lead with this model. I have been using it for about 4 months so I do not know yet how durable it is. It runs on battery and is automatically recharged when it is plugged in. The battery appears to be easily replaceable. I have never had a reason to open it up. The manual that came with it states that a full charge is good for about 160 sharpenings.

It's great .expensive but worth it solong as it keeps working .very pleased with point great for detail.with pastel pencils.

Spitzt wirklich wie auf den Bildern.

Delivered quickly. Is very powerful and creates a beautiful point. It says it does hard pastal pencils but it even sharpened my soft pastal ones. Very pleased.
