Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Once i figured it out this thing works awesome. Easy to use and very effective. As other reviewers mentioned, you need to know how to use it:1.

The leda art supply 5b is slightly larger diameter but they both work perfectly with this lead pointer. You have to jiggle the lead holder a bit to get it to seat properly in the pointer.

Cons

Works ok if your lead holder is small enough to fit in the collar. Dont like does not sharpen well. I am disgusted that amazon would allow that.

Highlights

Quality

Gets continuous use and sharpens my lead the same every time.

This is a great sharpener for 2mm graphite refills used in mechanical pencils.

This new one has carbide abrasive which leaves a cleaner finish and should last forever.

This is a sharpener specifically for lead holders, not pencils.

Price

Cheaper than the one at the art store, however the art store one had two additional cleaning plugs, this one only had the one inserted

Shipping

I found it in stores and unfortunately i paid for shipping on here.

Packaging/appearance

It does tend to dump the graphite dust if you travel with it, so definitely pry off the top and dump it out before you pack it ... Read More

Mine had no instructions except what i thought was a miserly diagram on the box.

Competitiveness

The staedtler 502 is the best sharpener in the world.
