Eisen 2- Hole Metal Handheld Sharpener, for Color and Standard Pencils, Blade Made in Germany, 3 Sharpeners Per Pack (ESN-02603)

These are actually pretty decent sharpeners. I use them on my good colored pencils to get a long fine point and I use both size holes, depending on the brand/size of colored pencil. They arrived on time and in good condition due to the careful packaging. I wish I had replacement blades for these. But these aren't that expensive, so I buy 3 or 4 of them at a time. I color a lot, and as a result, I go through lots of colored pencils and quite a few sharpeners. The only drawback is that you have to use these sharpeners over a bowl or garbage bag to catch the shavings. But I've yet to find a canister sharpener that is as sharp (or lasts) as well as these sharpeners. [My hands are arthritic so I stop using these sharpeners when they get harder for me to sharpen my pencils and I switch to a new one about every two weeks]. However, someone who has more strength in their hands could get definitely get longer use out of these sharpeners than what I do.

Great sharpener. I was on the fence because I didn't know if the blades were going to come without the German markings (one of pictures shows the blades blank), but sure enough it came as it advertised in the description. The outside of the sharpener is made in China. Regardless, this is a great sharpener (three count) and I am very happy with the purchase. It only takes a couple turns and the pencil or colored pencil is sharpened to a point.

Great buy. Item as described.

In my opinion, if you care for your plain and ESPECIALLY colour pencils to stay sharp and NEVER get damaged from sharpening them, these sharpeners are a must.
