It's rated 120v, 60Hz, and could not be plugged-in directly in Denmark, where the electric is 230v, 50Hz. The X-ACTO School Pro, item 1672 (not 1670), will work in Denmark.

I taught Kindergarten for many years, so I am very familiar with My First Ticonderogas! (My favorite pencils by far....I still buy them for my own use!) This sharpener does not accommodate the pencils we're talking about, sadly. The two choices are for standard sized pencils, one makes a longer point and one a shorter point, similar to the point you'd see in pre/sharpened color pencils. The sharpener is AWESOME, though!!! Great value and a sharp, precise point every time. I highly recommend it!!! I hope this information is helpful! Happy shopping!! :0)

Most sharpeners say warranty is void if you use color pencil. I don't know specifically about this one.

I would suggest contacting the Westcott company, they may exchange it for a new one, that's what most companies do. I honestly only use mine at home, so we do not sharpen many pencils. Sorry, hopefully this helps!

Unfortunately, I don't know the answer. I do think the quality of their pencils is very good. I believe you can email the company directly by going to their sight and clicking on the "contact us" option.

No, you can use any sharpener you like. I use a standard electric sharpener.

I just use a small, manual sharpener ~ I can throw it in my purse and empty it easily. Cost of that type is very low!

Mine sharpened two pencils, then ceased to work. Needless to say, I was VERY disappointed!

You should not use oil with this type of sharpener. The youtube website has a few good videos on this sharpener.

You will also need 2mm lead (there are a variety of hardnesses and colors available), a 2mm lead sharpener (lots of different styles, I reccomend the Kum Automatic Long point two stage sharpener - it sharpens 2mm lead and it has a two stage long point sharpener for pencils - excellent points), and you will need an eraser, paper, ruler, and etc. Most importantly you will need creativity and imagination! Have fun. I bought lots of these (different brands and colors) for a wide variety of lead hardnesses. This one feels more solid in comparison to some other brands but I have not yet come across any that are unsatisfactory.

I haven't actually used one of the pencils down to the end yet. But I remember attempting to sharpen one out of idleness and it sharpened... But don't do it unless the top piece is completely finished! Cause it gets messy otherwise lol

The size of the sharpener only allows it to sharpen #2 pencils. I have used it to sharpen colored pencils which works as well.

Inktense pencils are otherwise normal pencils - I would use a good quality hand turning sharpener to avoid wasting color in the sharpener

hows it going jeff?first of all this is the best little pencil point maker i've ever seen or used.however it makes the standard writing point. not the point that most colored pencils come from the factory with. but its a cool german made unit just the same. take care, jim h

I don't know. I found mine to be unusable. It's very difficult to find a good pencil sharpener.

I went with the Prismacolor sharpener and I am glad that I did. It maximises the lead width so I get minimal waste. I hope this helps:)

I really don't know. This model is the only one I have ever used. It is small and handy and does a good job. My daughter also has one and she is very happy with it. She says it does as good a job as any more expensive sharpener she has had.
