The Honest Boy Pencil Sharpener May Inspire You to Write a Fairytale
John Ibbitson — February 19, 2012 — Unique
The Kikkerland Honest Boy Pencil Sharpener is a playful take on a traditional sharpener that makes refining your stationery a fun task. Inspired by the classic fairytale Pinocchio, this device is shaped to resemble the wooden puppet’s head. The only thing missing is his nose.
When you stick a pencil into the sharper it becomes Pinocchio’s nose, and as you sharpen it, the length of his nose decreases, which means that this version of Geppetto’s craftsmanship must actually tell more truths than lies.
The Kikkerland Honest Boy Pencil Sharpener sells for $9.99 and is a fun, functional desk accessory that would look great in any office, or make a cute back to school present for one of the kids.
