DUX, the oldest German brand for high quality pencil sharpeners was established in 1908 and to this day continues production in Geretsried, Bavaria. This double hole sharpener is made of Duroplast (Bakelite) and is great to have on hand to accommodate standard and larger size pencils. Duroplast was the material used to produce the body of the Trabant peoples car, manufactured in East Germany until the fall of the Berlin Wall.
