Versatile Leather Cutting and Skiving Tool:

The Ivan SS Japanese Style Skiving Knife is useful for many common leathercraft applications. Its broad blade design allows the user to make controlled cuts while also providing the leverage needed for skiving thicker leather.

Ideal uses include:

• Skiving leather edges
• Thinning leather for folds
• Cutting leather panels

• Preparing seams and overlaps
• Cutting straps and smaller components
• Reducing bulk around wallet interiors
• Preparing leather for bags and cases
• General leathercraft cutting

Whether you're making wallets, belts, bags, cases, footwear, or other handcrafted leather goods, this knife offers a useful combination of cutting ability and precise control.

Stainless Steel Blade:

The knife features a stainless steel blade designed for durability and dependable performance. A properly sharpened blade helps the knife move smoothly through leather while reducing the amount of force required during cutting and skiving.

Keeping the blade sharp is especially important when skiving, as a sharp cutting edge provides better control and helps produce smoother, more consistent results.

Contoured Wooden Handle for Better Control:

The wooden handle is shaped for a secure and comfortable grip, giving the leatherworker greater control over the blade during detailed cutting and skiving operations.

The contoured design helps position the hand naturally while working, making it easier to control cutting angle, pressure, and direction. This is especially useful when thinning leather gradually or making longer controlled cuts.

Japanese Style Leather Knife:

Japanese-style leather knives are popular among leatherworkers because of their simple, functional design and versatility. Unlike specialized knives intended for only one type of cut, this style of knife can be used for both cutting and skiving, making it a practical addition to nearly any leatherworking tool collection.

It can be used for rough cutting larger leather pieces as well as more precise preparation work before stitching, gluing, folding, or edge finishing.
