The alloy spiral blade directly shaves pencil lead smoothly and evenly, with enough power to prevent breaking the lead. The body of this sharpener is very small and compact; it is built with a plastic reservoir at the bottom that allows the user to see when the shavings buildup is ready to be emptied. The sharpener has an automatic pen feed that automatically guides the pencil closer to the point. Many pastel colors and themes like, “Magic Unicorn” or “Chubby Panda” are used to attract children and as a fun feature. This sharpener is made with a clear plastic, so it is easy to see when a clean up is needed; made of durable, non-toxic ABS plastics with rounded edges and corners to reduce accidental scratches; and the metal hand crank handle is able to give enough mechanical leverage to make turning easier than normal small sharpeners.

Product Advantages

This Cute Mini Plastic Hand-Crank Pencil Sharpener is, in my opinion, one of the most efficient available. This efficiency is established by the use of the high grade, alloy spiral hob which spins the blade sharpener.

Only a few strokes of the handle is needed to achieve a sharp needle point, compared to 20 or more for a traditional blade. This is due to the dent difference created by the alloy spiral hob giving an even sharper needle point with less cause from the engine of the sharpener. The handle should be rotated with little effort from the user which would allow students of the lower primary classes to use the sharpener comfortably with a relatively small or weak grip. The hygienic and cleaning qualities are very advantageous due to the see through waste bin designed on the tool, teachers and parents are able to be sure the shavings are being contained within the bin as opposed to the traditional sharpener trap method.

The safety aspect is equally important as the whole mechanism of the machine provides complete enclosure of the blades so that the vulnerable fingers are never exposed to the sharp metal blades. The fact that the sharpener can shape a variety of different pencil shapes (including the usual hexagonal and triangular ones as well as the unusual holey pencils) means that pupils need not own a collection of different sharpeners.

The final feature which needs mention is of course the looks of the machine. The Cute Mini Plastic Hand-Crank Pencil Sharpener means that pupils enjoy the experience of sharpening their pencils and are more than happy to get involved in preparing their own stationery.

In kinder classes, they would be very safe and appropriate as the safe top and soft handle would be easy for the teacher to manage during group activities, but pupils learn to sharpen their pencils independently.

The alloy blades extremely sharp, would make a sharp stake.

Product Details

If you examine the details in more detail, you will see that every aspect of the Cute Mini Plastic Hand-Crank Pencil Sharpener has obviously been well designed and engineered. The shell is made out of a very high quality ABS, which is polished to a very smooth finish which is very comfortable to grip and does not crack or split if too much pressure is imposed against it.

The ” Automatic Pen Feed” characteristics are quite impressive; it employs the use of a small clutch in the remaining workings of the sharpener which gently grips the pencil, and automatically feeds the led through as the wood is shaved. This stops any over-sharpening or the dreaded jamming of the sharpener. The alloy cutting wheel is subjected to an intense heat treatment process so that it maintains a sharp cutting edge after a many thousands of revolutions.

The waste box is not actually a box, but instead a detach able box, which is held in place by a snap on shell, which holds the box firmly in place on the sharpener, while the user is exerting force to turn the handle, and easily snaps out when full to unload the sharpenings. The handle is made from a high quality injected plastic that has been textured so that it has a “non slip” surface, and will not be slipped if the user has slightly sweaty hands. The dimensions of the sharpener have been carefully sized, so that overall height is about 75mm, to allow them to fit nicely into standard pencil holders, and be steady on the table.

The entry hole on the Cute Mini Plastic Hand-Crank Pencil Sharpener has been reinforced with a braze ring to allow for the regular abrasiveness of a wooden pencil in thereto prevent the sharpener from wearing out prematurely.
