These colorful Maped Globe Canister Pencil Sharpeners are not only educational; they are a lot of fun to use. With a single hole, it is great for sharpening the points of regular lead or colored pencils with the twist of your hand. A miniature world map adorns the exterior of the globe that sits atop the sharpener compartment. The sharpener base is easily removed to empty the pencil shavings. No need to take apart the hemispheres to get the job done. The names of the continents and most major countries of the world are shown with the exception of the South Pole region, which is where the sharpener hole and stand are located.
