"I have been wanting a skife knife, but I have been paranoid that I will mess up my projects by cutting off too much! When I saw this knife, it looked like a perfect solution for a leather working newbie. I have been pleased with it so far."

"I'm disappointed that I spent so much on an item that doesn't feed skive blades well. I expected much more from C. S. Osborne tools. . But, this isn't my first experience with sub-standard tools and materials coming from Osborne. I'll start looking elsewhere. I'll stick with my Hobby Lobby skife tool and Head knife."
