Ticonderoga My First Pencil Sharpener, 1 Hole, Large Barrel, Yellow/Green

Works great for the My First Ticonderoga pencils! My 2 year old (almost 3) is able to use it with supervision easily. I appreciate that it has a cap so shavings don't leak out everywhere. Seems to be good quality as far as sharpeners go. I can see it being great for kindergarten classrooms!

Made in GERMANY. This pencil sharpener is well made. It sharpens large diameter pencils and regular diameter pencils. Happy with this purchase. Much better than the two poor quality sharpeners from China that broke quickly and didn’t work well.

I don’t know why I’m so surprised at how amazing this sharpener is, considering the impeccable reputation of Ticonderoga pencils. This thing is incredible!!! It sharpens to PERFECTION…and I am the ultimate perfectionist. I sharpened about 10 pencils upon opening and it is consistently impressive. I also must mention the safety features. There is a lid that shuts so little fingers don’t get cut. The price is right…so excellent value. It is not messy, as the shavings go into a holder and it is super easy to empty it out (I already tried). The color matches the packaging for the pencils. It seems to be very durable, especially since it’s “manual.” This actually is nice though, because it means that it is easily portable. I can’t say enough great things about this product, I am pleased. I put a “before” and “after” picture for you to see for yourself!!!

This works on the “my first pencil”s; it is HARD to find a sharpener that sharpens the little triangular pencil, but this works great! It’s very sharp inside, so I probably wouldn’t let a kid use it without watching them do it. Cheap, too!

I picked up the Ticonderoga My First Sharpener for pencil time at home and it’s exactly what you’d expect from Ticonderoga, basic, effective, and solidly made. It’s perfect for kids because it’s easy to use and holds up better than most generic sharpeners.

Needed a sharpener for our thicker pencils that our toddler uses and this was the perfect match. Works great and is very easy to use.

Works great with the fat pencil for first-time writers; it's cute and worth the money sharpening fast

The big wide pencil sharpener is exactly as advertised. It fits perfectly on my son’s desk, and my son loves the cap for helping keep it mess-free.
