Why Use a Super Skiver?

Skiving is a fundamental leatherworking technique that reduces bulk, improves flexibility and creates neater finished products. The Ivan Super Skiver allows you to remove thin layers of leather accurately, making it easier to fold, stitch and glue leather without unsightly thickness at seams and edges.

Compared with sanding or trimming by hand, a dedicated leather skiving tool offers greater control and a cleaner finish, helping elevate the quality of your work.

Compatible Blades

The Ivan Super Skiver uses standard replaceable skiver blades, making maintenance simple and ensuring consistently sharp cutting performance. Fresh blades can be fitted in seconds, reducing downtime and improving cutting accuracy.

Suitable for All Skill Levels

Whether you’re starting your leathercraft journey or working professionally every day, the Ivan Super Skiver provides an affordable and effective solution for precise leather thinning and edge preparation.
