Manual pencil sharpener Milan 20152918 — plastic and steel, multicolour, pack of 18

Manual pencil sharpener Milan 20152918 is a compact handheld sharpener combining a plastic body and a carbon steel blade.

The device is designed for standard wooden pencils and developed by Milan’s design team in Spain, offering a practical tool for classrooms, offices, art studios and home use.

Advantages

The sharpener’s carbon steel blade provides consistent, efficient sharpening across a variety of pencil types while the safety blade system secures the blade to the body for durable, reliable operation. The plastic housing is lightweight yet sturdy and the built-in container reduces mess by holding shavings until emptied. Dual hole sizes accommodate both standard and thicker pencils, increasing versatility for different drawing and writing needs.

How to use
