NItram Sharpening Block
The Nitram Sharpening Block is the ideal companion to your Nitram charcoal batons, providing the perfect surface for shaping & sharpening charcoal & other drawing media.
To sharpen or shape your charcoal sticks to a fine point the charcoal blocks should be moved back and forth over the block slowly while maintaining light even pressure, rotating the stick as you go to even sharpening.
See below demo from Nitram on creating the perfect fine point.
The Nitram Sharpening Block comes with an extra set of sanding surfaces.
