Kutsuwa Rechargeable Pencil Sharpener

USB-powered pencil-sharpening device

Even at this day and age of pin-sharp mechanical pencils, there's something just satisfying about holding a well-sharpened regular pencil. Some say it's the smell of the wood, while others swear by the very idea that as soon as you start writing the sensation in your hand changes as the edge becomes softer. Whatever it is, you will get it from your pencils with the Kutsuwa Rechargeable Pencil Sharpener, which adds a 21st-century twist to the classic sharpener: it powers from any USB port, including that of your computer. How's that for irony?

Coming in three colors (gray, blue, rose) to suit any environment, the Kutsuwa Rechargeable Pencil Sharpener has a suction cup on the bottom to stay upright, even when you're not using it. It's made of ABS, PC, and steel and weighs a mere 372 grams (13 ounces). It takes about two hours to fully charge but when it's done, it can give you about 200 sharpening cycles with an over-sharpening prevention function to stop you from ruining your writing instruments. Give your home office an analog touch and make your pencils really, really sharp at just the press of a button.
