Hey everyone, I was looking for a battery pencil sharpener to make charcoal drawing on the go much easier. I have begun looking online and already overwhelmed by how many there are with decent reviews. Before I purchase one, does have recommendations and/or problems with them. Thanks! ---

Just received my (not battery operated) sharpener and tested it, very happy with results. Admittedly not tested charcoal as yet. Comes with clamp too to attach to a table or whatever. ![](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/smartmarx/original/1X/39d35feb34c2cb678fb1f2a295a3482fae5beda9.JPG) ---

I’ve heard good things about that sharpener. Looks like it does a nice long lead. Keep us updated on how it does.
