 Great For Prismacolor Artist Pencils Aug 25, 2011
By Nikita M
I bought this sharpener to sharpen my Prismacolor Verithins and Premier Colored Pencils. I used it for the initial sharpening of the Verithins, and it performed exactly as it should. Brought every pencil to a perfect point, and only took one try every time. Note: that does have to do with the pencil quality, also. If the lead inside the pencil breaks, it won't matter what sharpener you use, it will constantly break and fall out (depending, of course, on how broken the lead is inside).
Doing the initial sharpening, the canister had to be emptied about every 7 to 9 pencils. It's not a big deal, though, really, and subsequent maintenance sharpening would not fill it for quite some time.
I'm happy. Examining it when it first arrived, I was impressed by the quality of the blades. You will love it if you're looking for a sharpener that won't destroy your nice, expensive pencils.

Almost Perfect... Oct 19, 2011
By Cary Dunlap
I wish I could give this little gadget a full five stars, but the lid is a problem for me. The lid is molded with the body and connected only by a thin piece of already strained plastic. I've had the sharpener for just a short time but I can tell that the lid is going to break off soon. A better design is used by the Staedtler sharpener which employs hinges. You may think I'm being overly picky but this is an expensive pencil sharpener. The Staedtler will last longer and costs less.
Still, this does a good job of sharpening drawing pencils. It just seems a bit contrary to manufacture such a robust, sturdy product and attach the lid by such primitive means.

Best Pencil Sharpeber Ever! Oct 05, 2011
By Pacucho
I read the reviews on this item and was somewhat worried about the quality and how well the sharpener would work on my non-prismacolor graphite pencils I use for drawing. However, I can't be more happy. I took the sharpener out and tested each of my pencils. The sharpener works just like it should, leaving a clean edges along the graphite. I also used this on just regular "cheap" pencils and continued to sharpen those pencils without any problems. This is the best pencil sharpener I have ever bought, glad I made the purchase.

Perfect point Nov 22, 2011
By Arthur H. Pearl
precision sharpening is what you can expect. I'm age 60. I stopped using pencils long ago because of poor sharpening from every sharpener manual or electric I've ever used prior to this gem of a sharpener. Have just purchased five more for wife and kids.

Yet another excellent Prismacolor Product Oct 30, 2011
By Val
I'm a big fan of the Prismacolor Colored Pencils and this sharpener is a great addition to my set. It looks and functions great. So far it hasn't broken any of my pencils, even the softest crimson red pencil that breaks all the time, like other sharpeners do at times when sharpening to a fine point. I would recommend to anyone.
