BG Japanese Leather Skiving Knife, 35mm Straight Blade, Right Hand
Japanese skiving knives are a core tool for leatherworkers for their precision and versatility, thanks to several key features. Their single bevel, unlike many Western knives, allows for fine, controlled cuts essential for skiving, the process of thinning leather edges. This bevel helps guide the knife for clean, even skives. Our BG Japanese skiving knife uses a premium D2 steel, known for its balance of hardness and toughness. This steel, combined with hand polishing, contributes to exceptional sharpness. The handle design supports various grips for both vertical cutting and angled skiving, important for different techniques. Beyond skiving, these knives excel at long cuts, trimming, and other detail work, adapting to various leather thicknesses and projects. The combination of single bevel, quality steel, ergonomic handle, and resulting sharpness makes them favored tools for leatherworkers seeking precision and control.
