Refine your leather projects with the STRYI Profi Japanese Skiving Knife — a professional straight-beveled skiving tool designed for shaving thin layers of leather, edge thinning, and precision surface work.
Inspired by traditional Japanese leather knives, this tool features a wide, straight cutting edge ground to a precise angle, allowing you to work close to the leather surface with excellent control. It’s ideal for skiving seams, reducing bulk at folds, and preparing edges for stitching and finishing.
To use, place the leather on a proper cutting mat, insert the desired corner of the blade into the leather, and pull the knife toward you. The flat handle profile helps maintain a steady angle, enabling clean, controlled cuts and smooth transitions.
🔧 Pre-sharpened and ready to use, the blade is made from high-carbon steel W1-7, hardened to 60–62 HRC for long-lasting sharpness and consistent performance.
The ergonomic wooden handle, finished with natural linseed oil, provides a comfortable grip and precise handling during extended skiving sessions.
