Otis, you piqued my curiousity so I googled Keuffel & Esser items.
This cast iron pencil sharpener isn't the most impressive Keuffel & Esser item but it certainly brought back memories!
..........If I remember correctly, you stuck your pencil in the hole and moved the top part in circles. (there was sandpaper inside
etsy
It was made of cast iron so it wouldn't fly off the table.
Does anyone else remember using one of these things to sharpen a pencil?

I used to use one of those in school.....but never owned one. I preferred the sandpaper pads on a wood stick. Yes, they were heavy cast iron. Nothing wrong with them....they still work fine.
