Description

A duo of sharpeners for every standard-size pencil situation:

No. 516 (the one with indented sides) is the best-selling sharpener in Japan. In fact, NJK has sold over 52 million pieces in the past 40 years! Suitable for graphite pencil, colored pencil and crayon.

No. 508 (the one with scalloped sides) is made specifically for super soft/fragile pencils. Suitable for colored pencil, chalk pencils and even makeup pencils.

Founded in 1933, NJK (which stands for Nakajima Jukyudo) is an Osaka-based sharpener company, whose philosophy is “quality that is light as an apple peel, and is sharp as a Samurai sword.” We agree, they’re some of the nicest, sharpest sharpeners out there.
