1. DUX Mine sharpener
Pencil Sharpener GEDESS
When the first mechanical pencils hit the market in the late 1930s, there was a need for a device that sharpened only the lead without damaging the metal casing. The Swiss Georges Dessonnaz from Fribourg developed a pencil sharpener and patented it (Swiss Patent from April 9, 1939, US Patent from May 20, 1941). The initials of his name formed the designation for the sharpener: GEDESS. The drawing from the patent document does not show the current design, which has been in use since around 1944, but the basic idea has remained intact. In its new, modern form, the GEDESS was also exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
For leads with a thickness of 2 mm to 4 mm. The lead is sharpened by rotating the inserted pencil. Comes with a plastic catch container, light gray, individually packaged in a cardboard box.

3. DUX Sharpie
In the early 1950s, DUX developed a sharpener that allows for the adjustment of the pencil tip's sharpness in three different settings. A knurled knob located at the end of the sharpener enables the selection of three distinct pencil tip styles. The knob clicks into place audibly and tangibly when turned. Depending on the setting, it allows the pencil to penetrate more or less deeply into the sharpener. The precisely defined angle between the cone and the blade then produces the desired tip.
Three different settings:
1. Slightly blunt tip for colored pencils.
2. Standard tip for graphite pencils.
3. Finest, pinpoint tip for drawing pencils.
Even delicate cosmetic pencils can be sharpened very well with minimal waste. Made of brass, with a clear protective coating. Comes in a leather case.
