ltoddv Report post Posted October 22, 2017 Does anyone use a spoke shave for skiving? I was thinking of getting one to try but wanted some opinions first. I’ve been doing well with a safety beveler and tandy skive. I wanted to try a French skive or spoke shave and see if they were a little easier Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cowboycolonel Report post Posted October 22, 2017 I tried using a spoke shave, but found that the edges of the blade were a problem. On saddle seats and such, I use a heel shave, but am having trouble finding blades for them. Still, I use it for about all my seat work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cowboycolonel Report post Posted October 26, 2017 Let me know if you find them -- especially blades. I have a number 7 and a number 5, of which I use the 5 most often. . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
