Pros & Cons
Pros
Simple, well made, solid & perfect. Easily fits into your pocket. Nothing beats these little sharpeners.
It's not flimsy, has a good weight to it and compact size. Works better than sharpeners that are much bulkier, more expensive and less sturdy.

Metal construction, replaceable blades and sharpens beautifully.

Competitiveness
Works much better than electric sharpeners and is a good deal.
It is comparable to staedtler products i remember using in the 1980's.
I have others but this one makes the pencil tips sharper then my more expensive ones.

You probably could get it to a very sharp point if you wanted to when sharpening but i don’t need it that sharp
