Members Dunluce Posted December 19, 2019 Members Report Posted December 19, 2019 (edited) While looking at skiving knives I notice some are called Lap Skiving Knives. What is the difference in use between a lap skiving knife and an ordinary one? What is lap skiving? Edited December 19, 2019 by Dunluce Quote
CFM chuck123wapati Posted December 19, 2019 CFM Report Posted December 19, 2019 (edited) lap = overlap, underlap, two pieces of leather skived so the thickness doesn't change when they are lapped together. each piece of leather is usually skived at a taper. Skiving or paring is a basic term for thinning a piece of leather.
