JINGLIN x YORKSHINE | Böhler N690 Professional Leather Skiving Knife
Refined to Essentials. Built for the Cut.
In professional leathercraft, the relationship between the blade and the leather is everything. By combining Böhler’s world-class metallurgy with a precision flat-ground back, we’ve created a tool that feels predictable—there are no surprises and no “fighting” the blade. It’s built to sit on your bench, be picked up often, and deliver consistent, clean results.
Why Professionals Choose This Blade
-
Böhler N690 Stainless Steel We chose Austrian-made N690 for one reason: it is the ultimate "low-stress" steel. It offers exceptional corrosion resistance and edge stability. Even in humid workshops or during long, intensive cutting sessions, it maintains a predictable edge without requiring constant maintenance.
-
Precision Flat-Ground Back Most market-standard knives are finished on basic belt sanders, which can leave a slight radius on the back. Our blades are precision-ground to be perfectly flat. This allows the knife to sit 100% flush against the leather, ensuring surgical accuracy during edge skiving and thinning.
-
Tapered Gradient Geometry The blade features a precision-tapered profile. This "gradient" thickness makes the knife incredibly sharp out of the box and significantly easier to hone or sharpen when the time comes.
-
Professional 100mm Blade The 100mm blade length is the industry standard for balanced control. It provides a generous cutting angle and ample surface area for both long, sweeping skives and delicate, incremental thinning.
Who It’s For
-
The Pragmatist: Leathercrafters looking for a "zero-fuss" blade that resists rust and requires minimal oiling.
-
The Perfectionist: Makers who need a perfectly flat-back knife for hair-thin skiving and vertical edge alignment.
-
The Professional: Users who want a production-grade tool that is easy to re-sharpen and comfortable for long hours of work.
