Heavy-duty 12-blade sharpener

The Westcott HD Pencil Sharpener ACM16681 is a heavy-duty unit built for classrooms, offices and home workspaces. Its helical 12-blade cutter sharpens pencils quickly and cleanly. Auto-stop technology prevents oversharpening and reduces lead waste. The extra-large shavings reservoir means fewer trips to empty it.

Ideal for shared, quiet spaces

This sharpener suits teachers, administrators and families who need reliable, low-noise sharpening for multiple users each day. The safety shutoff stops the motor when the reservoir is removed, making it safer around children. Buyers who only sharpen occasionally or need a compact, portable sharpener may prefer a smaller handheld model.

Adjustable dial covers six sizes

The adjustable dial accommodates up to six different pencil diameters, so one device handles standard and jumbo pencils alike. Quiet operation keeps noise low in libraries and open-plan offices. Sold as a single unit in black, it arrives ready to use without additional accessories or software.
