Leather Skiver Leather Splitter with Pulling Handle,Leather Peeling Machine, Leather Skiver, Aluminum Made,Leather Skiving Leather Working Tools with Blades for DIY Leather Work Leather Thinning Craft

It is seldom the case that I purchase a product and it works exactly as expected. This is the one. This thing is simple, high quality, and it works. I have used this on over ten belts so far with perfect results. I am not sure why people would buy those $400 skivers when this gets it done for a fraction of the price. Great product!

Have been using it for about 4 months now one the 1st blade still. Still very sharp. Very pleased with it

Does the job, but there are a few things to know and that the designer should consider. User: Take it slow, do not try to hog off a lot of leather in one pass. 3-4 passes are much better. Designer: having 2 set screws for one bar isn't ideal as the set screws don't allow for synchronization, one set screw with a bar across would be far better. Need better fine tuning ability. A latch to lock the handle in place is needed. Other than that it beats trying to hand skive straps by a long shot, so good buy.

I think for thicker and wider leather it might work. I was trying to get thinner straps for a bag and it was just not working. The tension screws were coming loose every few inches and then it would shave down the leather til it cuts off. When it was working it wasn’t consistent. Maybe for keychains it would be helpful, but I wished I would have watched YT reviews before buying.

It might not have quite the precision and adjustability of the namebrand machines, but neither does it have the price tag. Great value for the money. It takes a little getting used to, but works well for thinning straps.

I've only used it testing how it cut some belt straps. I adjusted the blade thickness, it cuts like butter. I did mount it to my bench. Make sure the blade is even on both sides. If this thing fails I will update, but as for now, I am very impressed.

This tool is great. It's one of the most important pieces of equipment I use. My only regret is that I didn't buy the bigger one. Very sharp, easy to use and definitely sturdy.

It was very easy to set up and I was able to skive a strap right away. Very sharp, clean cut. The only thing that could be better is the screws that adjust the blade level on each side. There is not markings for either screw to let you know if you have adjusted them equally, so you need to be careful and pay close attention to your adjustments so the skiving cut is equal on either side of the leather strap.

Surprisingly good quality. A great addition to our workshop.

Works great for skiving leather straps and belt ends plus ton of other leather item uses. Easy to use and easy to adjust for thickness.

Works great

Just got it and cant use it cause it came missing the pieces that hold the blade on ... not impressed
