## Description

From the brand that brings you the My First World's Best Pencil, Ticonderoga now offers a My First premium pencil sharpener. Quality-made jumbo-size pencil sharpeners are hard to find, and most are very basic. This My First Ticonderoga hand-held sharpener is specifically designed for jumbo-sized pencils and comes with a large collection area to capture shavings. A screw-top lid also helps keeps the mess inside so your child can stay focused on learning!

Review: Made in GERMANY - Made in GERMANY. This pencil sharpener is well made. It sharpens large diameter pencils and regular diameter pencils. Happy with this purchase. Much better than the two poor quality sharpeners from China that broke quickly and didn’t work well.
Review: ✏️ best manual pencil sharpener I’ve ever used! - I don’t know why I’m so surprised at how amazing this sharpener is, considering the impeccable reputation of Ticonderoga pencils. This thing is incredible!!! It sharpens to PERFECTION…and I am the ultimate perfectionist. I sharpened about 10 pencils upon opening and it is consistently impressive. I also must mention the safety features. There is a lid that shuts so little fingers don’t get cut. The price is right…so excellent value. It is not messy, as the shavings go into a holder and it is super easy to empty it out (I already tried). The color matches the packaging for the pencils. It seems to be very durable, especially since it’s “manual.” This actually is nice though, because it means that it is easily portable. I can’t say enough great things about this product, I am pleased. I put a “before” and “after” picture for you to see for yourself!!!
