As winner of the Kokuyo Design Award of 2002, this 28-corner eraser has quite a reputation. Invented by Japanese product designer and art director, Hideo Kambara, the Kadokeshi eraser excels in both aesthetic design and physical practicality. Kadokeshi is a Japanese combination of the words, corner (kado) and eraser (keshigomu). The 28 corners of this eraser ensure that there is always a sharp corner and straight edge for precise erasing. This eraser was included in MoMA’s 2004 “Humble Masterpieces” exhibition and now exists as part of the Museum’s permanent collection. This Kadokeshi 28-corner eraser is available individually or as a pack of interconnecting erasers for even more sharp edges!

  • Dimensions: 3.5 x 1.5 x 1.5 cm

Adorable and effective

As an eraser, absolutely no complaints. Removes marks cleanly, no tearing or smudging.

As for the cubes/corners... they work. Gives a good choice and control over how broadly you are erasing, and has enough angles to fit anything. I still would go to a kneaded eraser in many art use cases, but for things like guide marks for a bullet journal layout it's great.

And finally, they look unique and fun, and get my five year-old's enthuiastic "Cute! Can I have one!" While getting grown-ups curiosity, followed by an "oh, that makes sense" when you explain the point. Er, edge.
