This invention relates generally to an apparatus for sharpening marking instruments. More specifically, the invention relates to a sharpener that is convertible for effectively and efficiently sharpening both carpenter's pencils and crayons. The sharpener has a removable and rotatable cap that facilitates the axial alignment of the carpenters' pencil within the sharpener. The sharpener further comprises primary and secondary alignment surfaces for axially aligning the carpenter's crayon within the sharpener, having the cap removed.

A writing utensil container formed from a single plastic mold, including a container front panel, a front bottom component, a container back panel, a back bottom component, and a container lid component. A bottom integral hinge component may pivotally couple the back bottom component and the front bottom component, allowing the container front and back panels to pivot toward and away from each other. A lid integral hinge component may pivotally couple to the container back panel with the container lid component for opening and closing thereof. The container front and back panels may have coupling mechanisms that selectively engage with each other to prevent pivoting about the bottom integral hinge component to retain crayon boxes between the container front and back panels. A front closure feature of the front panel may selectively engage with a lid closure feature for selectively retaining the container lid component in a closed position.
