Mitsubishi Pencil Pocket Sharpener DPS6001P For Sharpener Uni 2.0mm Wick Holder

This is the best lead pointer! I use both this and the classic Mars rotary pointer, and I like this Mitsubishi pointer more! It sharpens very quickly with just a few turns of the pencil. It's also very easy to decide how sharp you want the lead point to be. If you advance the lead just a little, you can get a good writing point. If you advance the lead just a little bit more, you can get a needle-sharp point. It's also smaller than the standard pink eraser--about two-thirds the size.

2mm lead sharpener — OUTSTANDING!!! I’m using this for art / graphite drawings. Bought this to use with my WSD 2mm lead clutch case* I’ll never leave home without this sharpener that just arrived this afternoon. Mega impressed. Quickly sharpened my 2mm lead sharper than I would have ever thought possible!! * Important side note if you have this particular pencil clutch: lead will swivel on you if using this particular lead holder (not uni fault, I’m just mentioning this so you know what to do) hold lead between fingers and you can even rotate this sharpening upside down. Using a standard mechanical pencil is just a pure joy!! And easy as those cases ‘hold’ the lead from rotating. You’ll love this sharpener!!! Ease of use, travel friendly, incredible performance!!! Value for the money 👍🏻👍🏻 It’s sharpening ability left me gob smacked!!

I have the two main lead pointers- the blue spinning Staedtler one and the tiny Kum one with the clear top. This Mitsubishi one has them both beat! First of all, my main problem with the other two sharpeners is their constant spillage of shavings. I can't take either one anywhere without getting the bag and all of my other drawing tools covered in fine graphite powder. Before I got this Mitsubishi, I had resorted to putting a piece of tape over the holes of the Krum. This Mitsubishi's swivel top seems to be purposely designed to address this problem- it opens and closes quickly and easily, effectively plugging the hole and preventing shavings from getting out. I was worried that it would swivel open in my pocket, but this has not yet happened during four months of constant use and travel. It is very tiny and feels well constructed. Mine sharpens the lead PERFECTLY, to just about the sharpest you can ever hope to get a lead. I don't use my spinning pointer anymore because it was constantly breaking my leads- I just use this and my Krum. Downsides would be the difficulty of access to its innards- others have gotten it open but I haven't really tried. I'm not sure if the blade is replaceable (Edit: The blade IS accessible AND replaceable, see photo). Apparently others have also gotten one that has a misaligned blade. Mine, however is perfect and shows no sign of dulling and I use it A LOT. Even if it did eventually "die", I have no issues with just buying another. I will probably buy 2 or 3 more anyway to keep in reserve. If you use lead holders regularly, I promise you, you want this lead pointer! The Japanese and their manga artists got this figured out.

ONLY FOR LED PENCIL SPECIFIED. Small, portable, sharpen as expected. Not versatile. Color is burgundy. Performs as expected.

Superb sharpener for 2.0 mechanical pencils. Sharpens to a VERY sharp point in just one turn. I use mechs with different color leads in art to make extremely sharp detail. The sharpener is only about 1.5 tall. It's very small. I would highly recommend it for sharpening mechanical pencil leads. I am buying another one in case I manage to lose the one I have. I like it that much. It is easy to store too. :)

This item is small, but that compactness is a perfect complement to a drawing kit. The the sharpening blade works efficiently on 2mm leads of all kinds, and the top opens and closes with a click that's more satisfying than I expected.

Worked for a few months on my Kitaboshi 2mm mechanical pencil, but failed later. I think the blades just got dull because it didn’t seem jammed when I held a flashlight up to it. It’s also quite hard to fix jams because you just can’t see what’s going on in there; it’s very small, light, and opaque, which was initially why I was drawn to it, but those ended up being negatives when I couldn’t see what was wrong with my sharpener. Also, that small hole that you’re going to jam your pencil into several times a day to sharpen it? Prepare to get graphite shavings all over it and it’ll get dirtied up fast. If you want a long-term use sharpener, I don’t recommend this one.

Love this pointer! It works perfectly and efficiently. There is a little slide in the bottom to let out shavings from time to time. Great quality!!

Funziona davvero bene, con due mezzi giri la mina è pronta. Come oggetto, invece, è incredibilmente piacevole e ben fatto. Molto compatto, plastiche di qualità, l'apertura e chiusura dello sportellino di accesso al foro del temperino è una vera chicca, si sente il click al rilascio e alla chiusura. Chiude in bellezza il tappo a slitta per svuotarlo, abbastanza duro da evitare aperture e svuotamenti accidentali. E' costoso, ma quei soldi li vale tutti.

Lovely, tiny, effective lead sharpener, which collects the lead dust to protect your other tools from all that black and messy detritus. Slide the top across to expose the hole in which to twist the lead until it is sharpened. Doesn't seem to give an ultra sharp point, but effective enough for most purposes. I usually remove the lead from the pencil before sharpening, as then I can tell how much pressure I'm putting on it, to avoid breakage. You can also keep the sharpenings as an art material, as you can buy powdered graphite for various art purposes, and also for things like loosening a too tight lock mechanism. Who knew! There may be sharpeners which give a better point, but I haven't seen one so effective in keeping the dust inside.

This is the best 2mm lead pointer available. Works with all 2mm pencils, unlike the more expensive Staedtler rotary pointer. Gives a long, sharp point, but takes some practice to use properly. Holds the pencil dust, which is a great bonus.

D'une efficacité redoutable (il taille les mines de 2mm avec une facilité et une rapidité déconcertantes), ce petit objet est bien conçu, grâce notamment au "réservoir" qui permet de l'utiliser n'importe où sans se salir les doigts et de le vider quand on le souhaite... Bref, un allié malin pour ceux qui aiment la précision du trait et la propreté ! Et comme en plus il est arrivé du Japon dans des délais remarquablement courts, que demander de plus ?...

Lo cierto es que no hay muchas alternativas para afilaminas. Tenemos el sacapuntas de todas la vida que suele distribuir faber-castell, ese no lo he probado así que no puedo opinar, pero dudo que consiga afilar tanto como éste y debe manchar de grafito. Comparándolo con el de Steadtler y teniendo en cuenta que ambos afilan igual puedo decir que: Ventajas -Es mucho más pequeño y fino. (ver foto adjunta comparando tamaño con una moneda de Euro). Lo puedes llevar hasta en la cartera con la caderilla que no molesta. -Mas cómodo a la hora de afilar, giras un poco el portaminas y ya lo tienes. En el otro tienes que girar la tapa con el portaminas clavado. Inconvenientes: -No tiene 2 tipos de afilados. El de Steadtler tiene también un afilado con punta roma (?), pero en mi caso no lo uso. -No tiene la "esponjita" para limpiar los restos de grafito en la mina, pero cualquier tissue, la misma goma maleable si estás dibujando o si eres un poco guarrete la misma manga ;-) sirven para limpiarlo. En la parte trasera, hay una pestaña para vaciar el depósito de grafito.
