The Grip sharpening boxes are as versatile as they are practical: Three different openings for graphite, colour and jumbo pencils provide an ideally sharpened point for drawing, painting or writing. No matter how the pencil is used, the lead is perfectly protected from breakage. There is plenty of time for creative work and writing before the spacious double casing for shavings has to be emptied.

Because of this I’ve worked my way through a fair few packets of pencil crayons, but I never really found the right sharpener to keep them in good condition— They would become blocked quite quickly, and then ultimately cause the crayon to either snap or cause enough damage to the lead/tip it would subsequently make that colour unusable. They would oversharpen and then cause the nib to break as I placed it on the page and that was just annoying after the third time of buying a sharpener happened. But with this Faber Castelle I haven’t had any problems whatsoever!! It’s awesome. Easy to use, easy to clean, it doesn’t get blocked, it’s light, and it sharpens the crayons like a dream in a split second! And not only that but you’re getting three sharpeners for the price of one included into the unit. You’ve got one for colouring pencils, one for graphite pencils, and even one for chunkier crayons or pencils and to top it off it even has a small chamber to collect the shavings so there is NO MESS. Its functionality is truly EPIC. Best purchase I’ve made yet when it comes to pencil sharpeners! And I can promise you don’t look ELSEWHERE, buy it now if you’re in need of a new sharpener. 10/10 VERY HAPPY! Review: Brilliant Sharpener! - BELIEVE THE HYPE! I’ve been a teacher for 24 years and over this time, I have bought many pencil sharpeners for my classes. None of them can hold a candle to the Faber - Castell sharpener. During the last year I’ve have started sketching, and I needed a sharpener. When I tried this sharpener, I was blown away. Every pencil is sharpened perfectly and the shavings are collected inside, which means no more shavings on the floor, table, etc. I also have osteoarthritis in one of my hands, so because the Faber-Castell sharpens so quickly, I am not struggling. I rarely leave reviews, but I had to say how wonderful this sharpener is. ## Features - Trio sharpening box for graphite and colour pencils, standard and jumbo sizes - Large container for waste - Ergonomic triangular shape ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B001P3LKPK | | Best Sellers Rank | 38,222 in Stationery & Office Supplies ( See Top 100 in Stationery & Office Supplies ) 167 in Pencil Sharpeners | | Brand Name | Faber-Castell | | Colour | Silver | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (3,285) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00092633312018, 04005401838975, 04005402838981 | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 4.4D x 7W x 15.9H centimetres | | Item Weight | 0.01 Ounces | | Manufacturer | Faber Castell | | Manufacturer Part Number | FC283898AZ | | Material Type | Graphite | | Model Number | 183897 | | Power Source | Manual | | Special Features | Ergonomic | | Specific Uses For Product | Colour Pencil, Graphite Pencil | | Target Audience | Adults | | UPC | 999994518465 092633312018 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Faber-Castell - **Colour:** Silver - **Material:** Graphite - **Power source:** Manual - **Specific uses for product:** Colour Pencil, Graphite Pencil ## Images ![Faber Castell Trio Sharpening Box - Silver - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61bjG4f6q+L.jpg) ![Faber Castell Trio Sharpening Box - Silver - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61KkQE19yML.jpg) ![Faber Castell Trio Sharpening Box - Silver - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71fMiyqEOOL.jpg) ![Faber Castell Trio Sharpening Box - Silver - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81rCWqC+R1L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: How do you open up the sharpener to CLEAN out the shavings?** A: It is an easy thing, once you figure it out! :-) On the hinge side of the opener, there are arrows with the word "clean". From that side, you can gently pull the silver end of the opener away from the black hinged section. The shavings can easily disposed of from the silver section. Both the silver sections can be removed in the same manner, to empty shavings. Hope this helps! **Q: What is the largest diameter pencil this can sharpen? Will it sharpen 15mm diameter Pencils? It doesn’t say on descriptions** A: hai quoc nguyen~ No, it will not sharpen 15mm pencils. This is for standard to medium size art pencils only. 15mm would be considered a jumbo size pencil. I hope this helps. **Q: Would this sharpener work on jumbo crayons** A: According to the full product description, No. I concur, owning and using two of these. Nothing Jumbo. **Q: Where is it made?** A: Guessing Germany. Renowned, long-standing company from Germany known for their writing instruments. It's a good sharpener. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The ROLLS ROYCE of Pencil Sharpeners! *by P***P on 6 May 2025* Over the last 6mths I have really gotten into adult colouring books, they have been super helpful for a way of making me relax and have some quiet time whilst also doing something that is enjoyable.

Nice to have separate places for the different types of pencil. Seems to stay sharp for a reasonable time. Very useful to have something that catches the shavings when drawing in places that might not appreciate pencil shavings all over the floor :-). ## Frequently Bought Together - Faber-Castell Grip Trio Pencil Sharpener - Grey, 3-in-1 Artist Pencil Sharpener, Manual Handheld Sharpener for Colored Pencil, Jumbo and Graphite Pencils - Faber-Castell Erasers - Drawing Art kneaded Erasers, Large Size Grey - 4 Pack - Faber-Castell Graphite Sketch Pencil Set - 6 Graphite Pencils (2H, HB, B, 2B, 4B, 6B), Drawing Pencils and Sketching Supplies --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/48463428-faber-castell-trio-sharpening-box-silver](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/48463428-faber-castell-trio-sharpening-box-silver) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-26*
