Are you searching for a sharpener that'll shape your graphite and coloured pencils to a fine point without breaking? Look no further than Caran d'Ache's selection of sharpeners and sharpening machines! Elegant and practical, our Swiss-made sharpeners expertly and precisely sharpen your pencils, helping you capture the finest detail.
Choose between our classic magnesium option or our vibrant red colourway for a little pop of colour in your art kit.

The classic metallic sharpener

Sleek in design, our magnesium pencil sharpener is a timeless essential, frequently found in children's pencil cases and office stationery kits! Featuring two holes to accommodate various pencil lead sizes and thicknesses, this metal sharpener can precisely sharpen both thin and thick leads.
Our sharpener is versatile enough to handle both hard and soft leads. To prevent breakage, we recommend sharpening your pencil to a rounded point for softer leads. Harder leads, however, can withstand a sharper, more pointed tip!

The playful, red sharpener that looks like a pencil!

Playful and bright, our red plastic pencil sharpener is an excellent addition to children's pencil cases—and for adults who like a little fun, too! Whether using a graphite pencil with a fine lead or a thicker tip like the Maxi Fluo coloured pencils, our pencil-shaped sharpener features a cubic reservoir hole that'll suit a wide range of pencil types and sizes.
Remember, sharpening your pencils is essential for their maintenance. Using the right tools, like one of our sharpeners, will ensure they stay in tip-top condition and last a long time.

Manual and electric sharpener options

In addition to our classic pencil sharpeners, Caran d'Ache offers both manual and electric sharpening machines for professional and creative uses.
- Our essential metal sharpener was introduced in back 1933 and remains a firm favourite. This hand-cranked sharpener is available in a variety of pencil types, including coloured pencils and both round and hexagonal graphite pencils.
- Our electric sharpening machine with an attached reservoir is perfect for high-performance, effective sharpening. Our motor-driven sharpener is available in three sizes and comes equipped with four non-slip suction cups, allowing for precise sharpening of round, triangular, and hexagonal pencils with diameters ranging from 8 to 12 mm.
So say goodbye to damaged to dull leads! With our sharpeners and sharpening machines, your pencils will always be in fantastic condition, allowing your artistic talents to shine on the notebooks and drawing pads you're working on.
