Yep, but I still find my pocket knife or a utility knife like a box cutter to be quicker and better on these carpenter pencils, especially when only resharpening ... but maybe that's just me?!?!
Lenn, I want to be sure you understand that I started a new thread with this diverant topic so as not to sully your original threads featuring your wonderful craftsmanship and ingenuity. Your threads just made me think of things that I had along those same lines, but mine are mostly just commercial items that don't hold a candle to your delightful creations!!!
