CARL 5-Point Pencil Sharpener, CC-2000, Black, for Office, Home, and School

The Long-point sharpener is designed to create a thin, yet sturdy tip on your pencils, unlike many other long-point sharpeners that tend to produce tips that are too delicate and prone to breaking. This sharpener automatically draws the pencil into the cutting chamber and stops the sharpening process once the desired long-point tip is achieved. The metal clamping teeth firmly grip the pencil without damaging its surface.

Quiet in operation, this sharpener is best used on a non-resonating surface to avoid unwanted noise. Its durable metal construction ensures long-lasting performance, and despite its substantial weight of 18 ounces, it remains portable, with a convenient desk clamp provided for added stability.

Designed for HB #2 and harder graphite pencils, this unique long-point sharpener offers four color choices to suit your preference. However, it is not recommended for use with soft leads or colored pencils, as the resulting point may be too long and thin to be practical.

The sharpener accommodates standard-size round, triangular, and hexagonal pencils, and its quiet, long-lasting cutter rotates on a metal gear ring. Users can choose from a very sharp lead tip to a blunt lead tip using the custom 5-point selector, ensuring the perfect point for their needs.

The durable sharpening mechanism is made of steel, providing reliable and consistent performance over time. The automatic pull-in feature draws the pencil into the cutting chamber, preventing over-sharpening and ensuring a consistent, high-quality point every time.

For added convenience, the sharpener comes with a table-mount clamp, allowing for secure and stable placement on a variety of surfaces. The removable shavings tray also makes it easy to empty the collected pencil shavings, keeping the workspace clean and tidy.

In summary, this Long-point sharpener is a versatile and reliable tool for creating the perfect point on HB #2 and harder graphite pencils. Its durable construction, quiet operation, and customizable settings make it a valuable addition to any artist's or writer's toolkit.
