Vintage skiver splitter

Recommended Posts

I have a leather skiver made by Severe hdwr sold by Conway Saddle. The previous owner dropped the blade it now has a chip in the cutting edge. I think I need a new blade. It is 10.5" long. The screw slots are 9 9/16 oc and 3/8 wide each. I have not been able to find a blade that wide. It is a great tool. Can any one help me find a blade for it?

That sounds pretty close if not the common size for the older 8" Osborne #84 splitters. The new blades vary a bit vs the old blades. I would contact  CS Osborne and see if they can give you the specs on their replacement blades.

Thank you. I will call them in the morning. The adjustment is in the twist and only requires one hand. I really want it to work.
