Members busted Posted October 9, 2011 Members Report Posted October 9, 2011 Bought this at a garage sale for $10. Has anyone ever used one of these? Ya' know it is against the law to seal. You made a very good find. This is a lap skiver. Quote
Elton Joorisity Posted October 10, 2011 Report Posted October 10, 2011 Hey Mark I have one very similar...I'd be more than willing to help you get it in tip top shape the next time you come visit! Quote

That sounds good to me thanks. What was it originally used for? I have never seen one before. Quote
Ambassador Luke Hatley Posted October 10, 2011 Ambassador Report Posted October 10, 2011 That sounds good to me thanks. What was it originally used for? I have never seen one before. I have a newer Landis. I use it for skiving ends of belts and straps. Quote
Members MikeCahill Posted October 20, 2011 Members Report Posted October 20, 2011 Bought this at a garage sale for $10. Has anyone ever used one of these? I've got one like that, got to get the blade seriously sharp, and keep it sharp, mine has a tendency to wander a bit and mark the leather, that could be down to my inept setting up, good solid machine should last for ever mike Quote
ClaireAshton Posted February 27, 2015 Report Posted February 27, 2015 I've got four. Got them on Ebay and refurbished them for use on thinner leathers. Quote
Members LumpenDoodle Posted May 9, 2015 Members Report Posted May 9, 2015 I got one of these off ebay, and not done much with it. How have you set it up for thinner leathers? I got mine working after a fashion, but would love to get more use out of it. Quote
