This is the most classic sharpener available. The Grenade by German manufacturer Möbius + Ruppert has been around for quite some time. There is still debate going on when and where the original design first appeared, however, it’s safe to say that this sharpener made its first appearance as early as sometime in the second half of the 19th century.
Made out of brass it will not only age with you as it develops a unique patina but also chances are high it’ll outlast you. It sharpens pencils up to 8.2 millimeters in diameter. The length of the tip is a good amount shorter then what you’d get from other sharpeners available, but a shorter tip also means more sturdiness.
In my conclusion a great sharpener for everyday “field use”.
Made in Germany.
