The Swordfish Varipoint Electric Pencil Sharpener is designed for users in busy offices, studios, and classrooms who need a reliable and versatile tool for sharpening standard 8mm pencils. Its key benefit is the customisable pencil point selection, allowing for sharp, blunt, or intermediate points with impressive speed (3 seconds per pencil). A potential caveat is its specific compatibility with 8mm pencils only.

The Varipoint sharpener is designed specifically for standard 8mm diameter pencils.
The auto-stop function detects when the pencil has reached the selected point sharpness and automatically stops the motor to prevent over-sharpening and pencil waste.
Yes, the Varipoint features a unique pencil point selector that allows you to choose between a sharp, a blunt, or an intermediate point.
The frequency depends on usage. The transparent, slide-out tray is large to reduce emptying frequency, but should be emptied when full to maintain optimal performance.
Yes, the Varipoint features a replaceable, long-lasting helical blade. Replacement blades can extend the life of your sharpener.
The sharpener includes a safety feature that cuts power when the shavings tray is removed, and an auto-stop function to prevent over-sharpening.
The Varipoint sharpener measures 200 mm in width, 88 mm in depth, and 115 mm in height.
Check that the power cord is securely plugged into both the sharpener and a working electrical outlet. Ensure the shavings tray is fully inserted, as a safety feature prevents operation when it is removed.
Ensure you are using a standard 8mm diameter pencil. Remove the pencil and check for any broken lead fragments inside the sharpening mechanism. Empty the shavings tray, as it may be full. Try re-inserting the pencil gently.
Verify that the pencil point selector is set to the desired setting (sharp, blunt, or intermediate). Ensure the helical blade is clean; empty the shavings tray. If the issue persists, the blade may need replacement.
This is likely the auto-stop function engaging because the pencil has reached its optimal point. Remove the pencil and check if the desired point has been achieved. If it stops prematurely, ensure the shavings tray is not overfilled.
