How do I open it to empty it?

Not force, one hand. The design is confusing. Most people are using the indentation for the lid to open de cap. That needs extra force. If you apply a little pressure from the side, you release the small tooth gently. The video on youtube requiere to much force on the plastic.

For Prismacolor colored pencils, which is best: the Prismacolor Premier pencil sharpener or the Prismacolor Oval (bullet shaped) Pencil Sharpener?

I love this Prismacolor sharpener. It is easy to empty and makes a very sharp point for controlled, layered drawing. I am ordering a second to keep in my travel art bag. I don't recommend this sharpener to sharpen an initial box of unsharpened pencils--for this I would use an electric sharpener. But, to keep at your desk to keep your pencils sharp, this works really, really well.

does this work for the "verithin" prismacolor pencils?

Yes, the Prismacolor Pencil Sharpener will perform well in sharpening the Verithin Colored Pencils, as well as any other type of pencil, whether it's graphite, charcoal, pastel, or any other brand of colored pencil.

私は日本でカリスマカラーを愛用しておりますが、カリスマカラーはプリズマカラーと同一の芯を使って日本国内で加工された製品です。ですから、プリズマカラーと同一の芯であるものをプリズマカラー純正の削り器で削れるということ自体がまず私にとってはうれしいことです。サイズ感としては初めて見たとき「やや大きいかな？」とも思ったのですが、すぐ気にならなくなりました。むしろ削りカスが多く入るということで利点のように感じています。そもそも鉛筆削り器というものは消耗品であって、刃の切れ味が悪くなってきたら交換するものなのですが、私はこの削り器が気に入ったので、刃が鈍くなったら外して刃を研いででも使い続けるでしょう。（刃はプラスのネジで止められています買ってよかったと心から思いながら毎日使っています。

So glad I found the reviews as I had no idea how to discard the shavings. Bought this product because none of my other sharpeners did the job! Love how easy it is to use and how efficient it is. Great product! Bonnie G

Sharpener sharpens all pencils sharply without breaking, performs well as compared to the price paid. However, I cannot seem to pull the cover to empty the shavings.
