Interesting he is still using a knife when the mass-produced little pocket sharpener had been around for a few decades. My carpenters still used knives on their pencils in order to put the point in the right place to help keep the pencils steady/flush when tracing along edges. I always wondered why carpenter’s pencils were flat.
