KUM: German Precision, Perfected Over a Century
KUM began in 1919 in Germany, with a name that simply means "plastic and metal". The materials they used to solve the age-old problem of terrible pencil sharpeners. What makes them special is their revolutionary curved blade technology that prevents that infuriating moment when your sharpener tears the wood instead of sharpening cleanly.
For over 100 years, this family-owned company has been obsessing over the details so you do not have to. Whether you need a basic sharpener or their famous long-point models, KUM turns the simple act of sharpening a pencil into the satisfying experience it was meant to be.
