3-in-1 Pencil Sharpener

The Faber-Castell FC283898AZ Grip Trio is a manual handheld sharpener designed to handle three different pencil barrel sizes: jumbo, standard graphite, and colored pencils. Its triangular shape and grip dots provide ergonomic control for users aged six and above. A built-in shavings compartment keeps workspaces tidy during use.

Suitable for mixed pencil sets.

This sharpener suits artists, students, or office workers who regularly switch between jumbo, graphite, and colored pencils and want one tool for all three. Buyers who only use a single pencil diameter will find the extra holes unnecessary. It is not designed for electric operation or for sharpening crayons, pastels, or leads thicker than the jumbo opening.

Compact manual tool fits in a pencil case

The grey alloy-steel body measures 4.6 by 6.5 by 20.8 centimetres and weighs 0.04 kilograms, so it slides easily into a desk drawer or pencil case for portable use. No power source or batteries are required. The snap-off lid opens the waste reservoir for quick emptying, freeing up bench space otherwise needed for a separate shavings bin.
