Shop Note
A premium skiving knife is one of the best upgrades you can make at the bench. Keep the blade sharp and strop it regularly for clean, controlled cuts. In footwear development, proper skiving reduces bulk, improves folded edges, helps lasting margins sit cleaner, and gives your prototypes a more professional sample-room finish.
