Agreed. I splurged on a Blackwing One-Step Longpoint Sharpener and I really like it. Unfortunately I loaned it to my wife and she really liked it too... ;-)

One day, I'll get myself an El Casco pencil sharpener. It gives a very special point shape, a long point, but ends in a blunt surface. Here's a review that describes it really well: https://www.penciltalk.org/2012/05/el-casco-pencil-sharpener

Interesting. Do people draw with the blunt point? Maybe they angle it and use the circular edge of the tip?

Wow. I have never before been jealous on account of a pencil sharpener.

I have one at home, and one at the office. Sure, its cheap Chinese manufacturing, but it really works.
