tat2 Report post Posted November 17, 2010 (edited) I have a very nice example of a leather Skiver. This tool was used to thin the edges of Skirting leather. Simply adjust the height of the blade, mount unto a table and run the leather through. Very rare and hard to find , Our business is moving up and into more industrial machinery so we do not need it.I am asking for 400.00 Paypal ONLY but open to serious offers. I also have a leather plough on offer here. I will offer a discount on both vintage tools! Shipping is through Canadapost and tracking number is included! I will ship anywhere in the world! Please contact me directly. Stpehen 647-637-5229 sales@greenmanleather.ca Edited November 17, 2010 by tat2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dirtclod Report post Posted November 17, 2010 I can't afford it first off. But do you have a picture showing how it works because i can't make heads or tails out how it works. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Go2Tex Report post Posted November 17, 2010 Yeah, me too. I take it, this is a tool you would use to skive the edges of a strap? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tat2 Report post Posted November 17, 2010 To answer your question You mount the tool unto a table and pull the leather through which skives it down. The top screw wil adjust the thickness to skive up or down C.S Osborne had a model just like this one but there is no maker mark on the tool. I hope this answers your question. It will do the edges of strap or the hide. to help with fold overs and such. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
