    Not forgetting that they need polishing from time to time too. Also a bit of bees wax on the tips helps out alot when removing.

    Those look great! I've never used a maul. What advantage is there over a mallet?

    I avoided doing any real skiving for years. About a month ago I picked up my skivers again and practiced on using different angles of cut and depth to get what I wanted. As was stated. Super sharp blade is key. Then play with how deep or shallow you want to go. I'm pretty happy with my skiving now and actually build things that need it!

    When I was in we used kiwi shoe polish and water. Built up the layers to fill in the scratches.

    I used edge kote once..once. for dying edges I use my dye of choice and let that dry. Slick until I'm happy then run bees wax over the that and slick again. I've never had issue with that and some if my gear is all weather all the time

    You could also try a V gouge then and carve a small trench out where the hardware will be.?
  23. kiwican
    Those look super cool. Have you considered skiving down the areas around the hardware to thin it out some?
