A razor-blade type sharpener for sharpening a writing instrument to provide a frusto-conical tip. The sharpener has a blade carrier that includes a first cutting blade for sharpening the writing instrument to provide a longitudinally tapered portion, and a second cutting blade having a cutting edge extending transversely to the first cutting blade for cutting a distal end of the writing instrument to provide a blunt end portion. Accordingly, the blade carrier is capable of providing a frusto-conical tip having a broad point on a writing instrument, which has been found particularly desirable for crayons. A container for a writing instrument, each including such a blade carrier, are also provided.
