What we liked

  • + The maker lists 420B martensitic stainless steel with the edge sharpened and shaped at the factory.
  • + An anti-skid groove design on the handle is meant to stop the hand from slipping.
  • + A thinning-knife format suits skiving edges and folds before stitching.

Trade-offs

  • - It is a skiving knife, so it is less suited to cutting straight lines through thick hides.
  • - The brand is not the best known and the listing does not state the blade length.
