Prym Tailor’s Chalk Sharpener with Dust Container
Restore a narrow marking edge to tailor’s chalk with Prym’s chalk sharpener. The V-shaped ridges shape a worn chalk block, while a container catches the dust instead of leaving it across your cutting table.

A sharper edge makes the line easier to follow
A rounded chalk edge can leave a broad band that is difficult to cut or stitch against accurately. This tool helps renew that edge for pattern outlines and seam references. It is made for chalk slabs, not graphite pencils; the sliding underside opens so collected dust can be emptied.
