Will this sharpen colored pencils?

Yes. I have sharpened Crayola colored pencils and it always works great for me!

Absolutely. I use an array of pencils from Prismacolor/Faber-Castell/Fantasia and the sharpener works well. This by far, has been the best one.

If the pencil fits into the slot (it does not matter if it is flat or round) it might work. I have only sharpened my kids pencils for school and it works very well.

Don't know if this is the "best" way...but I just use my Prismacolor pencil sharpener. It is the same sharpener I use for my watercolor pencils and colored pencils. Maybe there is a "best" or even "better" way. I never gave it that much thought...just used what I had... interesting question.

No, the pencils we ordered had to be sharpened (which is a lot of work for all those pencils, so we bought a nice counter-mount sharpener). Hope that helps. - Wayne

It does not come with a sharpener. I bought the PrismaColor Scholar Colored Pencil Sharpener and it works great!

You can try since I'm not sure if they can sharpen the huge crayons. Probably it can as long as they fit inside the huge hole.

There is an art to sharpening colored pencils with a hand sharpener. It's very easy to break the tip. As manual sharpeners go, this is one of the better ones. But like all of them, it dulls pretty quickly. It's worth the few bucks I paid for it and I would buy it again. Hope this answers your question.

Regular colored pencils, yes. Larger or triangular shaped pencils, no. It only sharpens standard pencils and colored pencils but it is the best pencil sharpener I have ever used and I am a teacher and have purchased many pencil sharpeners.

I am not able to answer your question. I ordered this sharpener a short time ago and have not used it yet.

If you mean little kid sized pencils, then yes it might. The dial rotates to allow for pencils of different diameters. The thing I like best about this sharpener is that it's vertical so that the machine stays put when you're sharpening. I'm a big guy so it always seemed that when I pushed on a pencil the machine would dance around the table and I needed both hands.

I can't say if it will sharpen ceramic knives, I don't own any ceramic knives, but I can tell you that I thought this sharpener is an inferior product. I believe I am qualified to say that because I am a retired furniture maker for 46 years.

Yes it will sharpen the bit. Just follow the instructions. I have a bundle broken bits and all were sharpened.

Absolutely! That is actually why I bought it. It does a great job on all pencils!

Yes-this sharpens the colored pencils well. Mine are not too soft- so this was not a problem at all. Not sure if you have a softer lead with your pencils-but this worked well in ours.

The size of the sharpener only allows it to sharpen #2 pencils. I have used it to sharpen colored pencils which works as well.

I have never used it to sharpen crayola pencils, but believe it would work fine even on the small hole. This pencil sharpener is worth the purchase. The best I have ever owned.
