DIUDUS / Cutting & Skiving
DIUDUS Pointed Leather Skiving Knife
A pointed, wood-handled leather knife with a seller-described single-sided 10° bevel and an explicit first-use polishing requirement.
CHOOSE THE TOOL FOR YOUR WORK
A pointed profile for buyers prepared to finish the blade
The pointed DIUDUS knife offers a different working shape from a round leather knife or the square-point Murphy. Its seller-described single-sided 10° bevel is relevant when you want to see the point while following a cut or working on a local area of leather. That is a design description, not a sharpening instruction or a guarantee that it will suit every hand orientation.
The knife has a wooden handle, fixed non-retractable construction and a listed overall length of 6.3 in. Steel descriptions are less settled: stainless steel appears in the specifications and part of the description, while the same listing also calls the cutting steel high-speed steel. Choose it for the pointed form rather than assuming a particular steel grade or maintenance advantage. The seller also discusses a storage box, but does not itemize a separate kit of accessories.
An important difference for a new buyer is the seller’s request to polish the blade before first use because its delivered finish is not fully polished. That makes it a different proposition from an unspecified ready-to-use knife; no polishing method or finishing abrasive is supplied in the text. If a documented material and simpler stated upkeep matter more than a pointed profile, compare the CBHGFEA round knife, which identifies high-carbon steel and gives clean-and-dry care. The Murphy offers a square point with a separately stated blade length.

What to check before choosing
Plan the first-use preparation
Make sure you can obtain suitable model-specific finishing guidance rather than assuming the knife arrives fully polished.
Compare the profile you need
A pointed blade, a round edge and a square point are different choices; choose by the cut you need to make rather than the shared skiving label.

Your questions about this product
Does it arrive fully polished?
The seller says the blade is not polished very smoothly and asks for polishing before first use. No detailed polishing method is provided.
Is it definitely high-speed steel?
The listing also identifies stainless steel, so the exact grade is not established.
Does the 10° bevel give me a sharpening recipe?
No. It is the seller’s description of the single-sided blade geometry, not a complete sharpening instruction.
