Wonderful little sharpener

This is a great sharpener! I recently purchased the Kutsuwa adjustable angle sharpener for my coloring projects, and I have been very pleased with it. The sharpener has setting from number 1 through number 5. Number 1 setting will give you a very blunt angle and I don't think this setting is very useful but some may find it useful. Setting number 2 isn't much better than number 1, but it gives a all purpose point that would be fine for writing but not coloring. Personally, I use settings 3-5 depending on the project I am working on and the technique desired setting number 3 is a good all purpose point for coloring a small amount of space, but it's not that good for detail work. Setting number 4 works even better and will give you the details you need for the fine detail works. Setting number 5 is great for the finest detail work or you can lay your pencil on it's side for shading and blending. The sharpener fits a little small in my hands, but I'm a man with larger hands, so it should fit quite nicely Ina ladies hand. The chamber for the shaving is a little small is the only drawback I have found with it. It's so easy to use, the blade is very sharp and I haven't had any trouble with pencil cores breaking. I hope every finds it as handy to use as I have as its so easy to go from one setting to another! Hope this helps!

Easy to sharpen and stays sharp.  The size is small enough to not alarm anyone when you pull it out to use.

Terrific little pencil sharpener! It works just like a pencil sharpener should. I bought my grandson one last year (he lost that) and got another for the coming year. The price is right and it's a great little item!

Besides wishing this sharpener was also offered in a "more adult" color option, I absolutely recommend it to anyone in need of a handheld sharpener. It is a great size, not too small that I can't find it in my bag but not so big that it takes up valuable space. I also appreciate the 2-point option and its built-in sharpening stopper that prevents unnecessary sharpening. Also, emptying the shavings is a breeze with its side "latch" and, it is worth mentioning that, the latch is secure which enables it to travel well. I have had it for close to 2 months now and (knock on wood) have not had any accidental shaving spillage. Now, this sharpener's mechanism does take a little bit of getting used to but it isn't rocket science. Only thing I don't like about this item is that you are not able to choose which color you want - a fact I do not understand and why I only gave this item 4 stars. Other that that, this handheld sharpener is very good.

Best sharpener around. Since it is small and compact I leave it on the counter right next to my knife block and  sharpen knifes before every use.  Have tired other fancier looking ones that do not work as well.  i like the fact that you can replace the blades.
If you have good knives and enjoy using them this sharpener is a gem.

This little sharpener is great for when you want minimum carry on a hiking or fishing trip.  I got it mainly to sharpen knives in the field.

The main draw to it is its size.  It is about the size of a small pen, and not much heavier.  You can carry it in a shirt pocket, in your pants pocket, or if you are MacGyver, you could attach it to your knife case.

I tested it on a knife that was dull and brought it to paper cutting sharpness.  The only downside is the length of it.  If you have a bigger knife, you will have to be slow and careful when sharpening.  But, for the size and weight, I would say it is worth the downside, as you will only use this in the field for quick and dirty sharpening.

Awesome little sharpener for a great price.
It work's well & leave's a clean sharp edge, small & light! Stores easily in cabinet. It makes those dull knives very sharp and only have to sharpen them occasionally. Easy to use. Price was great, well worth the value, shipping on time and packaged safely. I will recommend this item to many friends.

I was so excited to receive this because I have never sharpened my knives (I've had my current set for over 10 years) and I could tell they needed sharpened bad - especially the all-purpose knife I use for chopping (and, well, basically everything).

I was surprised how small this sharpener was but also happy that it wouldn't be taking up too much precious drawer space in my kitchen. It's about 4" x 2" or so. It is made of stainless steel and has non-slip grips on the bottom so it stays steady and in place when you are sharpening. It also has 2 slots, one with coarse blades and one with ceramic for fine tuning.  I took about 5-7 pulls in each slot and let me tell you.....what a difference this tiny gadget made! My chef's knife was super sharp again within seconds. I could tell even just by looking at it that the blade was no longer dull. I am SO glad I have this sharpener on hand now so I'll never have to deal with dull blades again. It was so quick & easy to use.

This would make a great addition to any kitchen and a perfect stocking stuffer for the cook in your life! I was provided this item free for reviewing purposes, and my opinion is 100% my own. I would totally purchase this again!

Nice little sharpener. The only downfall for me is that it is hard to hold in your hand for a long time. Otherwise it sharpens and does the job well.

Excellent compact sharpener!  I have one in every go bag, plus purchased several as gifts for family.

This straight forward simple sharpener really does an excellent job. Have been using it daily for several years. I love it enough to have purchased multiples so that I can tuck one in my suitcase for travel to extended-stay accommodations where a sharp knife is usually impossible to find. Tossed another in with our camping gear too. Highly recommend.

Well made sharpener, lightweight and super sharp blades. Works like a charm on my Prismacolor Premier and Inktense pencils.  I love that I can choose my point, either short or long.  I really prefer a short, wide point on my colored pencils and this little guy fits the bill.  I only with that it was smaller and more portable.  I'd even take it without the shavings catcher so I could fit it into my pencil cases. Love the asymmetrical design, too.

I needed a new knife sharpener and decided on this one. My first Impression when I saw it was that it was much smaller than I thought it would be. The suction cup on this sharpener is very strong and really holds the sharpener down so I don't have to touch it while sharpening my knife. The sharpener is great! It put a nice sharp edge on my knives quickly and easily. There are metal shavings left on top of the sharpener when you are finished. I just wiped them off with a wet paper towel and then rinsed the top off. Because of it's small size, it fits nicely in my drawer. I would definitely buy this again and would recommend to my friends.

Easy to use, with no parts for kids to hurt themselves.  It delivers a fine point with no effort. My husband grades papers with red colored pencil and has to resharpen frequently.  He's been doing it for years, and so is an expert on sharpening.  He is very happy that he can take it with him anywhere because it is so small.  I think I will have to get another for the rest of us - this one will be permanently stashed in his briefcase.

Great little pencil sharpener.  Nice and heavy with a sharp blade.  The knurled surface makes this little guy easy to grip and help to put a fine point on every pencil.  The through-hole design keeps the barrel clean and free of broken lead tips.  I should have ordered two more.

A great little powerhorse!  I am an artist working in colored pencil, and needed a compact battery operated sharpener that would give me a good point and not break off my pencil cores.  I definitely found it in this OfficeGoods sharpener!  Not only is it battery operated, but also electric and will run with a usb cord on your computer.  I have not tried that yet, as I have my own studio set up with my board, but I was pleasantly surprised at how well this sharpener works.  With 3 settings, I can vary the sharpness of the points if necessary.  Fantastic value; so glad I bought this!
