Manual pencil sharpener Faber-Castell SLEEVE Black

The Faber-Castell SLEEVE Black is a manual pencil sharpener designed for precise, clean sharpening of graphite and colour pencils. Its integrated protective sleeve in black prevents mess, collects sharpening debris and provides better control of the erasing or sharpening motion when opened. The product combines compact size with ergonomic design recognised by the 2007 ISPA Award in the “Back to School” category.

Advantages

The twin-blade sharpener offers two sharpening diameters (standard and jumbo) for popular pencil types, enabling both fine and broader points. A safety screw secures the blades for safe use and maintenance, while the removable sleeve functions as a dust container and protective cover to keep workspaces clean.
