A Designey Pencil Sharpener
Funno, by Beyond Object
This over-the-top-designey pencil sharpener is by London-based brand Beyond Object.
"Funno is a pencil sharpener machined from a solid block of metal and hand-polished with a mirror finish in various colours."
"The new Matte Black version comes with a unique rough matte finish reminiscent of cast iron."
The metal mentioned is a zinc alloy. And for those who take their Prismacolors seriously, the brand boasts that Funno's sharpening blade is made by Möbius+Ruppert, a fourth-generation family-owned German manufacturer of high-end office products.
Funno is in production and runs $70.

Unfortunately, the (cheap-ish) sharpener component is GLUED in from the bottom. It snapped off after a few uses. Nice form, poor function.
Don't I need to grab it with one hand to sharpen my pencil? Will it not be full of fingerprints in after 2 uses?
