Pencil Sharpeners from Office Allsorts
A pencil sharpener is a device used for sharpening the writing point of a pencil by shaving away the worn surface. Pencil sharpeners can be either manually or electrically operated.
The first patent for a device to sharpen a pencil was applied for in 1828 by a French mathematician, with an improved design coming along in 1847. Electric pencil sharpeners have been made since 1917. Before the invention of the pencil sharpener people used knives for the purpose of sharpening pencils. Pencil sharpeners were a big improvement as they were quicker and created a more uniformed finish.
