Post examples of perfected technology
ALVIN BRASS BULLET | $8
First popularized by German pencil-sharpening giant Möbius & Ruppert, the Alvin Brass Bullet has been honing graphite writing implements for more than a century. Mechanically, it’s as simple as it gets: Twist the pencil against the low-angled razor to sculpt a perfect point. But what sets the Bullet apart is its design. Made of solid brass, with a diamond-knurl grip, it won’t show its age for decades. Dull blades are easily replaced, and the off-center alignment of the sharpening chamber allows for shaping a needle-fine tip without breaking the lead. It’s an honest tool, heavy and rough like a carpenter’s handshake. It won’t make you a better writer, but the sweetness of its rewards—the satisfying scrape, the long curl of shaved wood that emerges as you twist—will make you want to write more.

Would be better with a squared off body to reduce the grip pressure required.

>Not using a knife to sharpen your pencils
The tip you get from sharpeners is shit compared to a knife shaprened pencil.

>IS THIS A JOKE?
>If you start a pencil-sharpening business, you can expect to hear this question a lot. The short answer? No, this is not a joke. You pay David Rees money and he sharpens your pencils. It actually happens.

Don't want to be that guy but.
The design hasn't really changed in 100 plus years. It boasts as much as 98% efficiency of energy transfer. Not much else to be said
