Experienced wooden pencil users know that different pencils need different tip shapes. An ultra-sharp long point is great for ordinary HB or #2 pencils, but softer leads and colored pencils need a shorter, blunter tip to avoid constant breakage.
This Two Way sharpener features two sharpeners in one: a long-point sharpener for medium and hard graphite pencils and short-point sharpener for colored pencils and soft graphite pencils. Sliding panels can be used to cover the openings of the sharpener, prevent pencil shavings from falling out when it is not in use.
