X-ACTO Ranger Wall Mount

Regarding the X-Acto Ranger KS 1031 pencil sharpener, my older pencil sharpener has much, much thicker & stronger steel. This junk bucket is so thin that I've already dented it by simply grasping to remove the shavings. Even the little foldy-over tabs holding the ends on came open. Oy! What A Mess! ...

Comes with three screws that are of cheap quality. I recommend using something different tan what is provided. The sharpener works but it is definitely not the easiest to use. I remember the smooth rolling quality of a school style sharpener. This one has a lot of resistance. Perhaps because it is n...

Very sturdy build and for us Baby Boomers, would remind one of the crank-handled pencil sharpeners we used in grammar school. Bonus- two rotary sharpening blades for accurate pencil points. Happy with the quality: all metal construction. I just wish it was manufactured in the USA and since is not, d...

I bought this pencil sharpener for my classroom because the mechanical ones were giving too much trouble. This definitely needs to be mounted otherwise it’s a struggle to sharpen anything. However, drilling this was a total headache because the body gets in the way. I took it apart too (the handle, ...

Call me old fashioned, but I'll take this style of sharpener over all others! As long as they stay low cost and high quality.. My only complaint is two, the shavings basket has a rather loose feel to it when fitting back on. Not as firm as the old ones. And the mounting base footprint is a wee bit t...

This sharpener works well. It doesn't seem quite as sturdy as the ones I remember from grade school but so far it is just fine for home use. Just a small thing but it doesn't stop feeding into the cutter once its sharp. It will continue to grind as long as you're turning it so you have to check it o...

Overall it’s great! The only issue I have is the quality of the handle and shavings container. These parts seem to be less durable than the sharpening mechanism and base itself. Otherwise no issues!

X-ACTO KS Pencil Sharpener We own two of these sharpeners -- one is mounted on a wall in the garage and the other one in our tool storage room. Pros: - each sharpener brings a pencil to a fine point with little effort or time. Like most sharpeners, if you keep at it, the pencil will get shorter and ...

I love this thing. One like this was in my house when I bought it in 1990 or so, in the closet holding the water heater. But when I installed a bigger water heater, there was no room for it anymore, and I gave it to the handyman helping me install the heater. So when I decided I really needed a shar...

I got this to replace my now-defunct battery-run sharpener, since I really like my old (very old) study metal one, and having used X-acto knives in the past figured this one should sharpen well. It sharpens REALLY well--a longer thinner pointier pencil point on my number 1 pencils, and cranking it i...
