Kum Black Widow Round-Point Sharpener

The Kum Black Widow sharpener has a removable red tip former.  When in place, it sharpens a short round point.  When removed it sharpens to a short sharp point.  Great for pastel or soft pencils were a rounder point is desired.  The Black Widow is easy to hold with it’s ergonomic and unusual design, and the red tip former can be used to clean the sharpener without damaging the blade.

The Black Widow sharpener can also be used for cosmetic pencils. Note that this sharpener fits normal diameter pencils.  Larger diameter pencils, such as Derwent pastels, may not fit.

Founded in 1919, Kum is the oldest producer of sharpeners in the world. They pride themselves on what sets them apart from other manufacturers – carbon-steel instead of inox steel, magnesium instead of aluminium or cast metals, and extremely high quality curved blades.
