Works well . . .
An excellently designed product that covers most of the popular sizes of leads that need sharpening. Kum makes some of the best blades for pencil sharpeners. This is not a value purchase at these elevated prices. Needless to say there are much cheaper pencil sharpeners.

Absolute best pencil sharpener ever.
I don't think there's a hand sharpener available that does a better job than this one. It makes perfect points to draw with, and you can choose a little more blunt or delicately sharp. You can use this to sharpen leads from a lead holder to perfect points and this does a far better job than the messy Staedtler Barrel sharpener. It comes with replacement blades which are so easily swapped out. The downsides of this sharpener is the plastic hinged door wears out over time and eventually breaks. I have taped them down in the past. It does last pretty long, I'm talking a year or two with near daily use, and the door can certainly be replaced, but I have not been able to source replacement doors, and it's just cheaper and convenient to purchase a new sharpener. One other extremely nominal bit of feedback to give is I miss the old matchbox style case for it. I have been reusing the older case for years since they changed it.

Great quality, several points in one unit.
Quality KUM product, great points on pencils covering 3 different sizes: 3mm, 2mm mechanical pencils and standard wooden pencils with two tip pointers. nice that it comes with spare blades too.

Nice sharpener!
I love the sharp point you can get with this two step sharpener. It’s light and contains the shavings nicely.

Superior sharpener for Prismacolor Premier colored pencils.
This is the best sharpening experience I have ever had with quality colored pencils. It offers two sets of blades for wooden pencils—one for wood sharpening first, and then another for the lead. Two extra blades are included, safely stored in the unit. Superior results.

Works great for a while
This sharpener makes a great long point on every pencil I've used it on. The original blades usually last me about six weeks. The replacements extend the life a couple more weeks. After that, the sharpener quickly becomes ineffective for two reasons. First, the lid will sooner or later break off at the hinge. It's just going to happen. Second, the fit of the replacement blades gets slightly off (maybe the plastic around the screws weakens and breaks), which makes it much harder to use the sharpener. At that point, it's time to get a new one. Buying more replacement blades is a waste. Bottom line: if you're OK with buying a new one every couple of months, this is a great sharpener for people who like a long, sharp point.

Well-Made Pencil Sharpener
Great price and makes a perfect point on the pencil. Well-made for the price. Very easy to empty and use.

This sharpener made me realize I had been sharpening my pencils wrong for my entire life.
Not really exaggerating. I love this sharpener. It's pretty much my go-to gift for everyone in my life. I use many different sharpeners for work, but this is my all-time favorite sharpener for several reasons: 1. It has a two-step sharpening process. Unlike most sharpeners that chew down your pencil like an insane beaver every time you need to get a sharp point, this sharpener has a long point sharpener that just shaves the lead into maximum pointy-ness without shaving down the wood. 2. In addition to the two sharpeners for your standard pencil, this model Kum also has two lead sharpeners for your mechanical pencil leads! FYI: this is the only model Kum that has the additional mechanical pencil lead sharpeners. Their other models, including the Blackwing Pencil model do not have these two extra sharpeners. 3. It comes with 2 replaceable blades which doubles the life of this sharpener. 4. You can buy additional replaceable blades! In a world where most products are engineered for forced obsolescence, how cool is it that you can buy spare parts for your tiny sharpener instead of having to replace the whole unit once your blades get dull? 5. It's light. I am a purse minimalist & carry a tiny bag. But this sharpener goes into my purse every day. 6. It's inexpensive. This is one of the few products I own that actually improves my life, in a small way, on a daily basis. How many things--especially things that cost less than $10--can I say that about? 7. It works like a champ. This sharpener works better than 90% of the sharpeners out there & works better than 100% of the other sharpeners in its price range. My only complaint about this model is the color. I think Kum sharpeners look way swankier in black.

Ho trovato questo temperamatite grazie al consiglio di un amico, e devo dire che il prodotto è molto utile, poiché contiene in un unico oggetto un temperamatite a doppia azione, un temperamine da 2mm e un altro temperamine da 3,15mm. La "doppia azione" si riferisce al fatto che la matita passa prima dalla lama n°1 che porta via il legno, e poi nella lama n°2 che rende appuntita la mina. Comodissimo nell'uso e nella portabilità, è molto utile per chi ha bisogno di temperare continuamente la punta degli strumenti da disegno. Per quanto riguarda la struttura, avrei preferito pagarlo anche di più ma con un involucro in metallo. La plastica si deteriora più facilmente, ma non è di vitale importanza. Resta da valutare la durabilità del prodotto: spero che questo temperamatite duri quanto previsto, ad ogni modo nella confezione si possono trovare due ricambi di lama.

2種類の削り穴があるのが特徴の商品で、端的に言えば芯が長く削れる穴と、短く削れる穴があります。 最初はどちらも中途半端で芯先がうまくとがらず、だめ商品かと思っていました。 しかし、長い方で削った後、短い方で削ると、あっという間にぴんぴんに削れました!刃の削れ具合もなかなか良いです。とても良い商品だったと思います。

this is such a handy little sharpener and I love that it has a sharpening hole for lead, it's why I bought it. It's never in stock at my local art shop so I'm glad I found it online.
