    i think the mountain eraser is a reference to the japanese proverb, "塵も積もれば山となる (chiri mo tsumoreba yama to naru)" which means "even dust if piled can become a mountain” which is really motivating, meaning each and every one of your small efforts count towards your end goal! :D

    • @sweeety969
      @sweeety969 Před 4 lety +16

      That’s exactly what I thought. Even as a layperson it seems invaluable because instead of a small container that can only hold a few pencil shavings like the other sharpeners, you get to attach it to a bigger container and not have to worry about emptying it out all the time. I go through my coloured pencils or my nephew’s pencils periodically and give them a quick sharpen and usually have to either bring a trash bag with me or sit near a bin but with that I would just be able to pull it out and go.

    Important to note that what may appear to be a gimmick might be a tool useful for elders and those with disabilities. The ratcheting #3 sharpener would be so useful to those with limited rotational mobility in their wrists (arthritis, etc). The popcorn brush would allow people who, say, had a stroke and limited control of their hands, to paint again.

    When you work with pencils and you’re doing a large art piece , especially prisma color pencils because they’re soft and dull quickly, you can easily and quickly fill that bottle. Also dull tips are great for soft or light shading. I will look for those sharpers next time I’m in japan. 👍🏾

      i sharpen my pencils so that the graphite has four sides (so the horizontal cross section is a square) and a chiseled point at the end. you can use the edge of the tip for sharp straight lines, the corners for sharp details and the flat bit for shading. if the edges loose sharpness, i rub the flat bit on paper and its sharp again. obviously works best with thick pencils.

      some reasons why I like my pencil at different sharpness is because when I doodle in class I like my pencil to be medium-sharpish(but change it depending on what I'm going for in my drawing) because this is the easiest for me, then when I do my notes I want my pencil pretty dull because when I write I press down a lot and hold the pencil very tightly (I still manage to have good handwriting tho) and when I'm done with the class I have a sore hand and I always have a callus on the finger I push the pencil on, my writing is very dark and hard to erase because of this, lighter pencil would be better for my writing.

      There are small foldable scissors too, they aren't stabby and usually are sold as keyring attachments. It's not a japanese product, just generic old timey international one, i think. I loved mine as a kid, because as someone who didn't have a swiss army knife until i was a teen they came in handy a lot for all sorts of things. I even used them for sharpening the graphite tip of pencils a few times - as in not the wood casing.

      I used to carry around a tiny Swiss army knife for lace tatting and crocheting on airplane reasons. Was bad at unfolding those folding sewing scissors (regularly stabbed myself by accident) and it passed airplane regulations. Lost it a couple years back b.c it fell out of my luggage, but the scissors on those 11 dollar Swiss army knives might be more useful than the mini scissors in this video. If those are no good, baby nail clippers are also good (I keep one packed in my travel tatting kit)

    For the cat sharpener thing, I can definitely see why it attaches to bottles. I use colored pencils a lot and having a small sharpener can be a bit annoying because having to sharpen so many pencils fills up small sharpeners really quickly and that means having to empty it every 10 minutes. Being able to have a whole bottle could definitely make it easier because you wouldn't have to empty it all the time ig

    For the people who are kinda baffled by the pencil sharpeners, it’s super useful for 硬筆 (kouhitsu), a way of practicing the Japanese written language. The best way to describe it would be a form of pencil calligraphy? The sharpness dictates how thick the lines and/or how much pressure you can use while writing. It used to be a common school class but not so much anymore.

    The Tgal pencil sharpener is amazing. It’s really useful when the core of the pencil is different. If you have soft core pencils the the short setting is great as it can help with lead breakage, but if the core is hard then the longer setting is great for getting really sharp points. I’ve seen this sharpener recommended a few times so I got one and I think it is one of the best ones I have ever used, even alongside the manual and electric ones with a handle. And the fact that the price is so reasonable is such a bonus. Great video as always. Just love your channel. 💕💕

    I’ve been saving shavings five years ago since I first start drawing!
    It really is not logical (and I am pretty sure I don’t have OCD) but filling my box with shavings makes me so happy.
    So THAT CAT SHARPENER is a must for me 😭💜

    The blue Man is probably for architecture drawings, or product design! You bend him into a pose and trace around him

    On the subject of going out of one's way to avoid using hands to clean up eraser dust, my daughter is starting elementary school in Korea (and the school system has some degree of influence from Japan due to certain events of history) and she is expected to have 4 sharpened pencils (as sharpening is only allowed during breaks) and a mini dustpan and brush. I would imagine that keeping clean hands is seen as preferable for penmanship and brushes are less likely to smudge children's heavy pencil lines than fingers.. so there are good reasons and an educational precedent for those desk cleaners ♡

    Btw, T'galls are some of the best sharpeners for soft core pencils in my experience, so its not overkill for me so that my pencils do not constantly break :)

    I would love those pencil sharpeners, especially the second one because I'm super picky about how sharp my pencils are, like I'll spend 10 minutes at the sharpener in class until I get it how I like it. Being able to pick the angle would definitely help with that, catch up American pencil sharpeners.

      You might be able to get it from jetpens.com, they have Japanese office/school supplies like these.

    I think the cat sharpener can be really useful when youre painting with colored pencils at home! Usually sharpeners are not that big so you need to keep emptying out the container, this would make it a lot easier!
