This Faber-Castell Sandpaper Block consists of a block of wood with two blocks of sandpaper mounted onto it. Sandpaper is an effective way to create a point on charcoal, pastels, crayons or difficult-to-sharpen drawing pencils. It is also a simple way to control the angle of the point on your pencil. The papers are of different grades, fine and coarse, and are designed for sharpening fine lead points, charcoal sticks, soft pastels and pastel pencils, none of which sharpen well in conventional pencil sharpeners. Each block of sandpaper contains approximately 8 sheets.

This sharpener measures 15.5cm in total with a width of 3cm, the sandpaper blocks are 88mm in length.
