Innovative Pencil Sharpeners Designed for Performance and Precision
KUM has been setting the standard in pencil sharpening since 1919, delivering exceptional German-made sharpeners trusted by artists worldwide. Known for their innovative blade technology and precision craftsmanship, KUM sharpeners feature high carbon steel blades with Dynamic Torsion Action. This advanced mechanism reduces the risk of tip breakage and delivers smooth, consistent sharpening with minimal waste—resulting in sharper pencils that last longer.
Perfect for both studio and everyday use, KUM sharpeners come in a variety of shapes and sizes to accommodate standard, jumbo, graphite, and colored pencils. Unlike electric sharpeners that can waste expensive pencil cores, KUM’s handheld sharpeners preserve up to 40% more lead.
