Kum 104.03.01 Magnesium Alloy Metal 1-Hole Steel Blade Rectangular Pencil Sharpeners

For years I have used a trusty old Kum sharpener in the shape of a purple torpedo. It’s great, as it contains the shavings in one end. Eventually the blade dulled and then became more or less totally blunt. My plan was to take the blade from this one to revitalise my trusty torpedo. This fine, lightweight sharpener arrived promptly thanks to Amazon, but bafflingly in an A3 sized envelope. (Sort this out Amazon, please). Upon examination, it had two spare blades attached to it, like a limpet, in a groove on the side. I was able to use one of the spare blades to fix my old torpedo and now I have two fine Kum sharpeners and a spare blade to boot! Delighted.

worked at first but not for long , probably used it less than 30 times, cant change the blade because the the screw doesnt turn & all that happens is the screw head warps , so this is a useless sharpener & not worth paying 5 times the cost of any bog standard pencil sharpener out there . i expect it to do the job but it didnt,

nice and sharp and smooth when you use it turn the sharpener not the pencil.

Absolutely the best pencil sharpener I have.

Excellent sharpener for colour pencils

This is the best sharpener I ever had , it's fantastic with prismacolor , I have used it many times with prismacolor pencils and they haven't broken once , must buy

I actually use these for making kindling to start fires, it basically weights nothing. Pencil-sh sized sticks as you " sharpen" them make a little pile of shavings. I use the shavings as part of my tinder bundle. You can also in a pinch shave some of the material off the back and use those shavings with a spark to light a tinder bundle ( allegedly I haven't been able to make it work in practice) I also us them to sharpen my colored pencils for my chilling in the evenings watching tv and coloring. buy several, and keep on in your fire kit and one on you side table, and one at your desk. give them away as gifts to your outdoorsy friends too.

Es una basura. Rompe las puntas de todos los tipos de lápiz con los que lo probé. Lo peor es que no es nada barato y Amazon no me permitió devolverlo.

ÇOK GÜZEL

Genau diesen Spitzer hatte ich vor langer, langer Zeit schon einmal. Jetzt waren dann alle drei Klingen stumpf und ich zu faul diese zu schärfen. Jetzt habe ich ihn mir wieder gekauft und freue mich darauf, dass er mir die nächsten Jahre wieder treu meine Bleistifte spitzt. Leicht, robust und ein echtes Qualitätsprodukt aus Deutschland.
