Customer Reviews
It's got a good weight—heavy enough for most tasks but still light enough for long sessions. The handle is comfortable, it's well-balanced, and the weight feels just right. I'm really happy with this purchase and would definitely recommend it!
I was initially torn between this hammer and another one with a vintage floral handle. I ended up going with this one because it seemed like it'd hide dirt better and had a more classic look. Now that I've got it, I'm really pleased—it looks exactly as I expected.
But I'll probably still grab that Bohemian-patterned hammer I was eyeing before. Collecting leather tools is addictively fun, isn't it? 😌
I just received this product, so I can't comment on its longevity yet, but my first impression is positive. It's well-crafted and well-balanced, exactly what you'd expect for the price. I'm looking forward to using it more, and if it holds up, I might consider buying a lighter model. From what I can see so far, it offers great value for money.

Let customers speak for us
I was really suprised how got was, but also how it arrived. Too good to open but also great for a hobbist getting into leather, it would be a good gift.
Good gear very happy
I live overseas and shipping was no problem and the tool is really well made gorgeous in fact
Commande parfaite et échanges super avec le vendeur. Merci
This machine has become an essential part of my crafting tools due to its versatility and thoughtful design. I want to share my experiences and thoughts on this impressive tool.
Each punch is purpose-built, making it easy to create holes of various sizes and shapes. Includes 6 different sizes, making it perfect for any leather project. The build quality is outstanding—it feels sturdy and stable during use.
The smooth, controlled punch action results in clean, precise cuts every time, without tearing or distorting the leather. Whether I’m working with thick or thin leather, it consistently delivers good results.
I’ve used this tool for various leather projects like belts, wallets, and keychains, and it has performed exceptionally well across the board.
Wasn't expecting much for the price. Very happy to be as surprised as I am. Very good build quality. Excellent value!
Finally got the whole set together after waiting a little over a week. Big thanks to the shop owner for the help and the little gift! The product quality is great, and it's really good value for the price.
The walnut base is sturdy enough. Embossing effect is also quite good. I opted for the #1 handle, but I might purchase a #2 handle later on.
If you're looking for a stamping machine that excels in design, functionality, quality, and price, MAXITA is a trustworthy brand to consider.
I started using it right away, and the results are good. Definitely a great investment
When I first got my hands on this, I could only say, Wow, this is luxurious! I love the rich walnut color and the slightly glossy finish. It was pretty easy to assemble, and when I started using it, I found it to be very sturdy. The rotation is smooth, and it even has a handy spot for storing my stitching needles. Overall, it's definitely worth the price and the wait.
My wife surprised me with this as a birthday present, and considering it's from China, it's surprisingly well-made. I didn't have high expectations initially. I've been searching for a good way to skive chrome-tanned leather for sewing preparation for quite some time.
I was almost set on purchasing the Schärffix skiver or even considering a bell skiver. I already own an old cast iron hand-crank gear-driven American skiver that works exceptionally well with vegetable-tanned leather. It's great for thicker leather but not ideal for chrome-tanned leather since it wasn't designed with that in mind. I have a variety of hand skiving tools including round knives, head knives, dexter knives, Tandy skivers, and various handmade tools for paring/skiving. However, this YaeTek Manual Leather Skiver seems to be the best fit for my current needs. While a bell skiver would be ideal for full-time skiving of chrome-tanned leather, this tool meets my needs perfectly. It's a step up from hand skiving tools but not as productive as a bell skiver.
My initial impression was not great - the parts seemed loose and sloppy. I had to tighten the turnbuckles, adjust the slop, and lock down the lock nuts. After adding a drop of sewing oil to the threads and pivot points, and a dab of grease to the cam lever, everything operates smoothly with minimal backlash. It was refreshing to only need to make a few adjustments, unlike many Chinese tools I've dealt with in the past. The machining on the blade holder could be better, and the included blades are terrible.
Adjustment is quick, and with some common sense, you can achieve repeatable results. I haven't experienced the deflection mentioned by Jeff Peachey with the Schärffix-style paring/skiving machine, but it's possible it may become an issue with long-term use. So far, I've dulled half a dozen double-sided blades, but the skiver is still working well.
The 18 blades included with this skiver were junk, but Schärffix blades fit and hold a good edge. Standard double-edged razor blades also fit and are a good option. I recommend buying a sample pack from Amazon to try different manufacturers before purchasing a box of 100.
Overall, the YaeTek Manual Leather Skiver works well on soft leather and thin veg-tan, but heavy veg-tanned leather will likely damage the tool quickly. For heavy veg-tanned leather, a sturdier machine like the Landis or American type skiver is recommended.
It's a great tool, and I would have purchased it myself if my wife hadn't gotten it for me first.
I find it really smooth and effective when skiving hard leather with this tool, but it can be a bit tricky with soft leather as it tends to deform sometimes. It requires some skill and practice. Overall, the product offers great value for the money and is quite suitable for beginners.
The product is substantial and comes in excellent packaging. The customer service team was very helpful in resolving a minor shipping issue, making it a pleasant shopping experience overall.
They work well for drawing fine lines and filling large areas. The dark colors come out vibrant and smooth. They're easy to use, and safe for kids. Overall, they’re a decent option for ceramic projects.
