Need to take down some notes while you’re whipping up that pasta sauce? This wooden spoon pencil makes it possible with one utensil. However, without a drip guard and with the constant threat of having to move closer and closer to a boiling pot after each sharpening, you might as well rename your mitt “Indi-hand-a Jones” and brace yourself for a non-stop thrill ride as he tries to escape dinner preparation without getting burned.

Fred Conlon’s Gnome Be Gone statues have been protecting your gardens and wine, now he is making that same level of protection available to your cubicle. And being an ever vigilant sentry is not his only duty, he will also hold your business cards and a single pen/pencil. Just beware those razor sharp teeth when putting your fingers anywhere near him, I somewhat doubt this guy is OSHA approved.

Top Gear V8 Pencil Sharpener: Pencil sharpening to the extreme.
Sharpen your pencil like a real man would, with a V8 engine. The roar of the engine will come to life with every pencil that gets sharpened. And just like a neglected engine, if you don’t maintain your sharpener by emptying out the shavings, the engine will stall. Whether you are a fan of the BBC’s Top Gear or not makes no difference, using a V8 to sharpen your pencil is the only way to go.

The Sharpener Desk Tidy is a desk organizer that looks right at home with a pencil stuffed in it.

Store some pens there too, it is an equal opportunity desktop storage device.

Not quite as disrespectful to your monetary system as using it as toilet paper, the Money Erasers will let you whip out 20 and 50 pounds and fix mistakes. Money is normally good that way, although this one only works well for pencil mistakes. If you made that mistake in pen you are just SOL. They would probably make a US version but I think they are afraid that the eraser would be worth more than the dollar.
