The Brand: DUX, established in 1908, is the oldest German manufacturer for high quality pencil sharpeners. They are based in Geretsried, Bavaria as they have been since day one. DUX is using the same processes they developed over the decades to make the products they offer. We stock their sharpeners time and time again and have yet to see a brand rival their dedication to quality and consistency.

Description: This beautiful (small—it can go anywhere with you!) brass sharpener lets you choose from 3 different points according to the wheel choice you make. In other words, you can control how sharp you want the pencil. We find the lowest setting (dial number 1) is ideal for colored pencils, the middle setting (dial number 2) works well for a writing pencil and the highest setting (dial number 3) is best for drawing graphite.

Details: 1 x 1/2 inch, brass, comes with leather case

A Note From Erika: I love that it has the 3 settings in 1 sharpener and it comes in the cutest little traveling case.
