Description
STAEDTLER® 512 blue double sharpener
Two-part sharpening for technical details and expressive lines
This model combines two different openings in a compact housing, allowing you to choose the exact point shape required for the task at hand. The narrow hole forms thinner pencils with a precise 23° point for sharp contours, while the wider slot shapes thicker materials with a 30° angle. A robustly fitted metal insert handles the cutting work durably, eliminating the need for regular blade changes while maintaining a tidy workspace thanks to the integrated shavings container.
✨ Product features
- ✔️ Dual opening: Standard pencils up to max. 8.2 mm diameter with a 23° sharpening angle as well as thick colored and graphite pencils up to max. 10.2 mm diameter with a 30° sharpening angle
- ✔️ Durable metal insert combined with a secure locking lid, which protects against accidental opening via side push buttons and a safety lock
🎨 Creative design possibilities
The separate openings allow for targeted material processing without changing tools. Technical drafters benefit from the narrow aperture for exact dimension lines and intricate grid systems, while artists use the wider version to create quick base layers, soft grayscale shading, and vivid color lines. Since the housing is completely lockable, it can easily remain on your drafting board or desk without shavings or graphite residue spreading into the surrounding area.
- ✔️ Ideal addition for architecture workshops, drawing classes, and conceptual sketchbooks
🔥 Workmanship
For areas of application with a high volume of writing, the stability of the cutting edge is of particular importance. The insert, made of hardened metal, retains its geometry even with constant wood removal, allowing pencil surfaces to be tapered evenly rather than splintering uncontrollably. The lockable lid section prevents mechanical stress during transport in briefcases or drawing portfolios and ensures that the mechanism functions reliably for years.
👉 Important: Close the lid firmly after each use to prevent sharpening waste from falling out and to ensure the functionality of the safety-lock mechanism.

What are the delivery costs?
Delivery costs:
For packages with a value of up to 50.00 Swiss francs, a delivery fee of 4.90 Swiss francs applies.
For orders over 50.00 Swiss francs, delivery is free of charge for customers.
In June 2025, we adjusted the delivery costs from 7.90 Swiss francs to 4.90 Swiss francs.
👉 Why only 4.90 Swiss francs for delivery?
-
We want shipping costs to remain transparent and fair for our customers.
-
4.90 Swiss francs covers only a portion of the actual shipping and packaging costs – we cover the rest for you.
-
This keeps your shopping experience at Kidis Art straightforward, affordable, and fair.
Why is there a small-order surcharge?
For orders under 20.00 Swiss francs, we charge a small-order fee of 10.00 Swiss francs, which already includes shipping costs.
👉 Why is there a small-order fee?
-
Every order incurs fixed costs (packaging, processing, payment systems). In order to cover these fairly while still offering our products at low prices, a small-order fee is necessary for orders under 20.00 Swiss francs.
-
This ensures that we can continue to offer a diverse range of products in high quality without having to artificially increase product prices.
-
At the same time, we would like to avoid tiny orders where the shipping and processing costs would be higher than the value of the goods themselves.
How long will it take to receive my order?
The processing time for your order is generally 2–5 business days, including shipping time. During peak season (e.g., before holidays or during special promotions), it may occasionally take 1–2 days longer.
Kidis Art always strives to process and deliver your goods as quickly as possible so that you receive your order without a long wait.
Where do our products come from?
For paints and art supplies, our products come exclusively from Holland, where the highest quality standards and precision in manufacturing are a matter of course.
We source our craft materials primarily from Germany and France, and occasionally from China when special materials or designs are produced there that enrich our range.
Kidis Art places the greatest importance on quality, transparency, and safety. That is why we take great care to ensure that all products are traceable – from manufacturing to the ingredients used. This way, you can be sure that you are receiving only high-quality and tested materials for your creative projects.
