"Overview" This is a skiving tool for leathercraft.
When aiming for a beautiful finish on leather craft items (wallets, bags, belts, key cases, etc.), a skiving tool is essential.
It can also be used for edge finishing and adjusting leather thickness.
Using a skiving tool improves the visual appeal, quality of finish, ease of use, and durability.
It is a convenient tool that can be mastered not only by professional leather crafters but also by beginners, so it is an item you'll want to incorporate if you want to enjoy leathercraft seriously.
"Trimming Leather Edges" If leather edges are used without treatment, they can become angular and look unnatural, or the edges may become rough.
Using a skiving tool smooths the edges of the leather, resulting in a beautiful appearance and a pleasant feel.
In addition, it enhances the luxurious feel of the leather, creates rounded, smooth edges for a professional finish, and eliminates any discomfort when holding leather products, making them easier to use.
"Flow to Edge Finishing" When finishing the edge (the cross-section of the leather), if it remains angular, the finishing agent may not be applied evenly, making it difficult to polish cleanly.
By rounding the edges with a skiving tool, the edge finishing agent can be applied more easily and polished more smoothly.
Features include smooth edge polishing, even application of edge finishing agent, and reduced cracking of edges even after long-term use.
Furthermore, if the leather edges remain sharp, they can catch on hand-sewn or machine threads.
Skiving the edges allows threads to pass through smoothly, resulting in even and beautiful stitches.
"Adjusting Leather Thickness" In leathercraft, it is important to adjust the thickness of the leather for each part.
For example, if the folded or sewn parts are too thick, the finished product may become stiff.
Using a skiving tool allows you to thin parts of the leather, creating clean folds and easy-to-sew structures.
Features include thinning the folded parts of wallets and bags for smooth opening and closing, thinning the sewn parts for easier machine and hand sewing, and adjusting parts to appropriate thicknesses.
"Specifications" Material: Stainless steel.
Handle: Ebony.
For sizes #1 to #5, please refer to the image for the corresponding leather thickness.
It improves the feel and usability, such as making frequently used leather products (wallets, key cases, etc.) easier to hold, and smoothing the ends of belts to reduce scratching clothes.
There may be minor scratches depending on the lot.
The color may appear slightly different depending on your monitor environment.
