Staedtler - Metal Double-Hole Sharpener

Metal Double-Hole Sharpener

Sharpen standard and jumbo pencils to precise angles

23° for standard pencils creates the fine, durable points that technical drawing and detailed work demand, while 30° for thick pencils produces the broader, softer points that colored pencil layering and shading require. Each angle is engineered specifically for how those pencil types perform on paper.

The metal construction outlasts plastic sharpeners by years, maintaining precise blade alignment through thousands of sharpenings. Standard holes accommodate pencils up to 8.2mm diameter; larger holes handle thick leads and colored pencils up to 10.2mm. Both chambers feature sharp, replaceable blades that cut cleanly without crushing soft cores or splintering wood casings.

Compact enough to toss in a pencil case yet substantial enough to sharpen without slipping across your work surface. Keep one at your desk and another in your travel kit, proper sharpening angles extend pencil life and improve mark quality regardless of where you're working.
