If you would like a cheap good version of this you can't beat the stabilo m80 works a treat and won't dint your pencils. My plastic m80 cost around 30 auDont forget to run graphite pencils through after your coloured pencils to maintain your blades on the crank shaft
Great Tip! To Maintain the blade. Thank you and great alternative for most pencils, but I have used the Stabilo M80 on pastel pastels and it doesn’t like the Hexagonal shape of the Caran dache pencils and tends to break easily.
I watched this video and it convinced me into buying one (the red edition). I bought it in a shop in Switzerland for 97£. I am in love with this machine. What convinced me to buy one is, that you can replace the cutter-unit once it gets dull - so it's really a sharpener for a lifetime. And I love I can sharpen pencils sharp and coloring pencils blunt. I have the option to change it continuously adjustable. No other sharpener has this option. You would have to buy many different one to get the same results.
Wonderful! Glad you got your hands on one. They are a joy to use. And as we both said will last a lifetime.
To me, that is the perfect pencil sharpener. The down side, is obtaining one. The pluss is that it is Swiss! Very precision engineered. Hope you will get lots of use from it. I like that its got variable point feature. Thanks for showing it! Wish i had one! Enjoy!
Thanks for sharing! Keep an eye out for sales! Or perhaps eBay?
Mitsubishi sharpener is wonderful. I don’t use pastel pencils, but it’s fantastic for colored pencils and makes the points both sharp AND long. Since I like to use the side of the pencil, I really love the longer point.
Nice, isn’t it lovely when you find the one thing that really works for you. Thanks for watching.
Thank you for the video. Please tell me what kind of glass bottle you have as a sharpener, size, shape, brand??? Is it a reagent bottle or something else? 300ml ? I know I’m a pain, ;)
Here’s the Link www.jacksonsart.com/studio-essentials-studio-glass-bottle-with-lid-250ml I got your email too. Hope this helps.
I just bought one, it sharpens all of my pastel pencils , Carbs, Pitts, Contes, Carans,. the price is insane But I dont want to spend more time sharpening than drawing
Honestly I don’t even think of the price anymore, it’s just so easy and convenient to use and a little spark of joy I get Turing the handle and hearing the grind lol
I bought a small set of Caran D’Ache Neocolors on sale and also some Swisscolors, which are marketed as children’s’ supplies, but which some UA-camrs have said are the same product, with a different target audience. The big difference between the artist-quality and supposedly kiddie-quality was that the kiddie crayons had square ends, So, how to sharpen them?
None of my rather large collection of mostly-useless pencil sharpeners (including the special ones for pastel pencils, which do work for that purpose) would work on the Neocolors. However, by determined browsing on Amazon I found a highly-recommended beauty crayon sharpener. My experience with this kind of sharpener (for sharpening lip and eye pencils) has generally not been great, but I didn’t like the art supply options for the Neocolors, either. Happy ending: the beauty pencil sharpener works perfectly on the Neocolors: sharpens even the blunt-ended kiddie crayons to a nice point without damage, unnecessary waste or any great effort or skill. Cost: £2-something, shipping included.
Moral of the story: you don’t have to spend a two-figure sum to sharpen these crayons.
I haven’t and wouldn’t sharpen any of the Neocolour (oil, wax, or water soluble) with this as they are too soft. Am rather confused about you comparing Neocolour (crayon like) to swisscolours (pencils) in my experience two very different products. Glad you found something that works for you. I still use and enjoy using my sharpener for pastel pencils.
This is a beautiful , helpful and a lovely video . Thank you .

Thanks glad you found it useful.
Thanks for the video. Is the only difference with the normal red version the green color? Or is this edition bigger or heavier?
I can’t say for sure as I don’t own the red one, but from what I can tell they are the same, they just released the green one as part of a Christmas collection a few years ago.
I have a question how is it holding up with pastels...someone commented it began to sharpen less and less with waxy/oily
Hi thanks for watching, it holds up fine, done so many pastel pencils, I would imagine if it does to that, you could clean it as it all comes apart.
Thank you for the heads up@@studio.spirit
although soft pastel pencils are known to dull pencil blades very fast and it's recommended to just cut it with a knife, no matter what brand sharpener blade. for that reason I avoided to use pencil sharpeners on them.
Where do you buy replacement parts?
Also, does this have an auto-stop feature? Thanks!
Yes once it has reached its point, it won’t keep chipping away at it.
I haven’t had to buy any yet, but if i did I probably contact caran dache.
@@studio.spirit thank you!
@@studio.spirit I was able to place an order for the new cosmic blue color. Your review was very helpful. Thanks!
What happens if you just pull the golden screw in the back, not all the way in and not all the way out? Can you technically get a third angle then?
Not a different angle per se just not as pointy. Thanks for watching!
does it leave bite marks on the pencils?
Unfortunately, yes.
do they make one for left handers?.
Hi, you can mount the sharpener in any direction, so would be suitable from any requirement, thank you for watching.
It from London Graphic I mentioned it on the haul video but not this one.
thank you! it looks amazing!
Did you mention where you bought this metal version?
It from London Graphic I mentioned it on the haul video but not this one.
thats a really nice pencil sharpener
Does Caran D'ache make a BUGGY WHIP straightener?
🤔🤨😜
I got this from newyork for 200 dollars, cardboard box in silver colour
I think I have seen the silver one it is nice.
£ 225 ,it’s nice to but very expensive.
Very expensive, but I have no regrets and has saved me money on my pastel pencils.
HOW MUCH
lol yes that much, but I don’t regret it at all.
