Seems like I'm not able to edit my post to correct the link. Thanks for posting the correct line.

Thanks all for the replies. I've been looking for one coming up on ebay for the last couple of years. They seem to come up more frequently in US than in Europe. Importing from US isnt that practical given the customs (25% of total) and shipping charges. Now that I'm more determined to get into making bellows and other leather parts for my instruments, I'd like to acquire a good skiver soon, and so waiting for ebay won't fit my timescales. So I will have bite the bullet and buy a new one. The Cowboy Skiver from China looks interesting - I wonder what it's like though?

Thanks Tom, this looks very interesting - I may go for one. Steve

Hello everyone My name is Steve and I'm based in North Yorkshire, England. I'm a musician, my main instrument is English concertina, and I also restore concertinas. I'm starting to work on the leather parts of the instrument: eg making and repairing bellows, valves, gaskets, leather boxes. I may even start gold block embossing. I'm making an effort to get leather-working tools together for this enterprise. Steve

I'm looking to buy a Schärf-fix 2000 - in good condition. Does anyone have one for sale. I'm based in UK. Thanks, Steve
