DUJISO Leather Working Knife with Wooden Handle - DIY Leathercraft Cutting

This is a skiving knife but if you want this to work like the top name brands , you’re mean to do some sanding .. on the bevel side facing down. You’re shooting for a 10 dreg angle . Blue tape a round pice of nylon on the handle so you can redress that angle. Start with 80 grit , marker up the blade . I did mine on a granite tile and the area that I’m sanding is only touching the blade . The nylon spacers is wrapped with blue tape . It takes time to redress the angle . Once that has a burr on the opposite side switch to 150 grit and repeat the process. Use a fine grit stone to clean the burr off the back . Then go to 180 grit so the same . After I got to 220-320 I started using the sand paper on the bevel on the back. I used water on the wet/ dry sandpaper. I went all the way to 15000 grit . Front and back , make sure on the back you hold the blade flat to the sandpaper. Keep the same amount of pressure on the blade fro start to finish. Onlt the cutting edge of the blade will be on the sandpaper . Once you get to 15000 grit do it bevel side and back 3-4 times . Your done wit the sandpaper. Now on to the strop board buy one or make one and use green stick compound on the smooth side of the leather. 20 times on the bevels side and the same on the back holding it flat . Then 15 , 10, 5 ,1 . It should be very sharp .Now this will shive shuck or thin leather , I’ve done four knives the cheap ones and a planer blade . Or you can spend the extra coin a buy a higher tagged knife and hit it with a strop and your set. Good luck , thanks for reading my story 😎

Love this knife. My first one got stolen, so I bought another one right away.

It was sharp for a little while but needed sharpening after I used it for the first time.

I was very pleased with this. It was absolutely razor sharp and ready to go on receipt. It skived some 7/9 oz leather with ease. I don't know about the durability of the edge, but I couldn't ask for it to be any sharper.

This thing is great!It's very sharp and can shave leather no problem at all. Was expecting it to need some sharpening but that is not the case at all.Very pleased with purchase.

It came Sharp, but I still had the refine the edge for the project

I know it's only 10 bucks, and I shouldn't expect much, but it came with a chipped blade, and though sharp, snagged repeatedly while using. I would suggest spending a little more on something with better material and finishing.

Nice design and comfortable in the hand. With a bit of practice, it should do the job just fine.
