Product Information
Getting the right point on a pencil is really a matter of skill and expertise. Most people need to know how to achieve the perfect pencil point to match the job. Deep in New York's Hudson River Valley, craftsman David Rees - the world's number one #2 pencil sharpener - still practises the age old art of manual pencil sharpening. How To Sharpen Pencils is a book, a manifesto and a fully-illustrated walk-through of the many, many, many ways to sharpen a pencil. Delivered with pencil-sharp wit and hilarity, this is the authoritative guide to a dying art.

Reviews
Praise For How to Sharpen Pencils "The book is powerfully funny ... a stylistic high-wire act, and Rees never teeters." --The New Yorker "Dear Reader is plunged into delicious confusion ... gloriously irreverent." -- The New York Times Book Review "This is the best treatise on pencil sharpening (in a sea of none) and diabolically funny. I''ve already alerted the Pulitzer committee." --Library Journal "This book is really a must-read for anyone interested in pencils. And there are well-placed lines likely to render you, as I was, doubled over in laughter. But what I enjoyed most about Mr. Rees'' book was reading something written with such sincerity by a person who obviously does what he does with care." --Pencil Revolution "There is a long chapter on how to sneak into someone''s house and smash their electric pencil sharpener with a mallet." -- Businessweek "The hand-sharpened pencils sent to me by artisanal pencil sharpener David Rees are without a doubt the MOST EFFICIENT writing instruments in my collection. I use them both for business and for pleasure, as their SLEEK and ELEGANT design coupled with their AMAZING SHARPNESS help make me an object of envy at work and about town. My favorite use for a David Rees hand-sharpened pencil? Sending threatening letters to strangers whose names I pick out of a phone book." --MATT TAIBBI, investigative journalist "Of all the great artisanal crafts, hat blocking, cobbling, and trolloping, I think I was most disheartened to see pencil sharpening relegated to the dusty bin of history. That is why I am so thrilled David Rees is picking up the reins of the forgotten art of manual graphite-encased-in-wood point-crafting. I love my pencil!" --AMY SEDARIS, crafts expert "Looking back, I cannot believe that I spent so many years of my life mechanically sharpening my own pencils with pencil sharpeners. Truly, my life before I was presented with correctly sharpened pencils by an artisan was a dull and ill-sharpened void. Learn from my mistakes." --NEIL GAIMAN, writer "You may think that sharpening a pencil is easy, but David Rees makes it look hard, and that makes all the difference." --JOHN HODGMAN, comedian "Could I sharpen my own pencils? Sure, I could! I could also perform my own dentistry, cobble my own shoes and smith my own tin--but why not leave such matters to real artisans, instead? I trust my bespoke pencils only to David Rees." --ELIZABETH GILBERT, writer "The number one #2 pencil sharpener!" --STARLEE KINE, public radio writer "David Rees carved away the wood that hides the graphite the way I need to carve away the fat the hides my ability to wear a bathing suit. Thank you for showing me the path, Rees." --PATTON OSWALT, performer "One is tempted to call it a must-read for anyone who has ever used a pencil." -- Booklist Praise For David Rees'' Get Your War On "Riotous and principled." -- Washington Post "Hilariously deadpan fatalism... a surprisingly articulate expression of our anxieties." -- Newsweek "The Thomas Nast of the internet." -- Comedy Central "The most original cartoon since... well ever. Raw, enraged, sardonic, hilarious, despairing, and impossible to pigeonhole." -- Rolling Stone "A glorious excoriation of our post-9/11 loony bin." -- New York Times "A phenomenal cult hero." -- Variety "Brilliant." -- USA Today From the Hardcover edition., Praise For How to Sharpen Pencils "The book is powerfully funny ... a stylistic high-wire act, and Rees never teeters." -The New Yorker "Dear Reader is plunged into delicious confusion ... gloriously irreverent." - The New York Times Book Review "This is the best treatise on pencil sharpening (in a sea of none) and diabolically funny.
