CARL Fraggle Desk Pencil Sharpener with Lead Remover

The CARL Fraggle is a hand-crank desk pencil sharpener with a colour palette inspired by national flags, so picking one feels a bit like picking a favourite team. Underneath the playful look is a genuinely useful sharpener: turn the handle and the pencil draws itself in, while a built-in lead remover clears any broken bits stuck in the chamber without needing to take the unit apart. A three-stage adjuster lets you dial in how fine or blunt the point comes out, which is handy for switching between writing and colouring pencils. The body combines a sturdy plastic shell with metal internals, and its compact footprint makes it easy to keep on a desk or shelf at home, in a classroom, or at the office.
