This object, which Muggles call a "pencil sharpener", is actually a Dark torture device. It works as follows: put the finger of the victim into the appropriate-sized hole, turn the crank, and listen to the victim scream as shavings from the victim's skin reach the interior of the device. (Be warned: when the interior is full, you will need to empty it before you can torture any more people!) Ironically, the only Muggles who use this "pencil sharpener" for its proper use are little kids - who actually stick their own finger in the device and, for some reason, choose to torture themselves.

One last note: observe the dark color; with such a dark color, it's amazing that these objects are not recognized in the Muggle world as evil dark objects!
