How to sharpen pastel pencils: pastel sharpener, craft knife, sandedpaper & crank handle sharpener

In this video, I will show you different ways of sharpening pastel pencils. I will be using different brands of pencils as each brand has its own hardness of the lead and the consistency of the wood casing, as well as the diameter.

Pencil brands I used in this video are:
Kohinoor Gioconda
Stabilo Carbothello
Derwent pastel pencils
Conte pastel pencils
Faber Castell Pitt Pastel pencils

In the video you can see three different ways of sharpening the pencils:
generic and pastel sharpeners
craft knife and sandpaper
Swordfish crank handle sharpener

You can see how different brands of pencils behave with each of these sharpening methods and decide which one suits you best.

Hope this is insightful and if you have any questions or suggestions do not hesitate to leave me a comment below.
