I found this wonderful article about sharpening pencils on Matthew James Taylor’s blog.  He gives details about sharpening pencils for various sketching and drawing techniques.

There are types of points to achieve certain strokes, shading, etc.  He gives information on the types of sharpeners and methods for achieving the points.

    Yes, isn’t that a crazy sharpener? I hope it doesn’t make me start collecting pencil sharpeners. ROFL!! I have a tendency to see things then start looking for them and end up with a “collection”. :)
