Abstract: The present invention provides a cap sharpener for clutch-type pencil, in which a blind end divides a cylinder from the cap, and the blind end has a through-hole at the center portion interconnecting the cylinder. The cylinder has a blade mounted on the top inner portion slantly and engaging with a lead which extends through the through-hole of the blind end. Two opposite resilient trips are formed in the inner wall of the cap with two granular projections extending inwardly from the trips, respectively. When turning the cap and a pencil being capped with the cap in an opposite directions, the cap will hold the pencil shaft still for the blade in the cylinder to cut the lead accurately. Additionally, the cylinder can be separated from the cap, and holding the blade in a slanting angle in a hollow body, and connected to the blind end of the cap by means of female and male joining faces. The hollow space of the cylinder, furthermore, can be used for collecting the lead chip powder.
