You can get the same quality at the japanese dollar store, works better than american pencil sharpeners.

For that design to work the sharpener must be firmly mounted to a stable surface

Even so the quality and consistency of the results are to an unfortunately large extent operatordependent

Unlike other handcranked designs once the point is sharp it wont keep cutting when you turn it

The mechanism of the kh20 is more complicated than a regular handcranked sharpener but the user experience is actually easier
