Leather Skiving Knife, Pointed Skiving Cutting Knife with Wooden Handle, Leather Skiver - with Exquisite Package for DIY Leathercraft

After reading a few of the negative reviews, I was hesitant to buy this knife. Because it was exactly the shape and had a one side only edge, I decided I would try it in spite of the negatives. Ok, it was “sharp” but it was only ok. Looking at the blade, I knew I could improve the edge quite a bit. After about 1/2 hr with my wet stones and compounds, this knife now shames a razor. I couldn’t be happier. The construction is very good and the blade is thick and doesn’t bend ( which was exactly what I wanted.). It is a very nice looking knife but is not a show piece. I really didn’t think it is supposed to be. My $200 & $300 knives are show pieces. For the price of this one, I wasn’t expecting show quality. (My humor). Don’t get me wrong though, this is a very nice piece and well made. I will be buying another just to have two. I can’t beat this knife, for the price, anywhere. Highly recommend it. Three days later. My second knife just arrived. I’m just as pleased. A little time and a little bit if sharpening and I now have two awesome leather cutting instruments Show pieces? No but they are very nice looking but I’m buying a knife and I LOVE these knives. Easy to use. Cut curves, straight, thick, (14 oz )and thin (3-4oz) easily. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

Sharp and great for skiving on leather also looks pretty nice too

It was pretty sharp when I got it. But I work the edge on it, and polished it, and that thing makes her razor blade looked stupid. I used it to cut out some pretty intricate leather parts.The edges were vertical.It was not hard to do it cut through eight ounces of leather. I know it's a skive but it makes a hell of a cutout knife

These DIUDUS craft knives come with barely any edge. If you take the time on your sharpening stones to maintain a pure chisel grind single bevel edge these work quite well. Wish they came with storage sheathes. Overall a decent value.

This one was perfect and amazing for the price. Smooth, sharp, well-designed. My other one, the straight edged one, had a dinged up edge. I might buy another since chances are it will be nice like this one.

Do not waste your time and money. It came so dull it couldn't cutt warm butter. I did get it sharp but it took a very long time with multiple dimond stones. The handle is way to fat to get the proper angle to cutt. I had to put it to the belt Sander and reshape the whole thing. Not to mention the handle fell off and I had to re epoxy it back on. It barely had glue in it. And the bolster is uneven. Its just janky. Iv put way more time into it then the 20 bucks was worth.

Very well made. Super sharp blade. Cuts 9-10 oz leather in one pass.

Purchased and its way to thick to skive with you will need to grind handle down to a thinner profile and you will need to sharpen it before it's actually useful if i could give zero stars i would
