Scarnitura

Definition

Skiving is a fundamental technique in the world of strap craftsmanship. As a collector and artisan, I know how crucial it is for achieving a high-quality product. This technique involves thinning the edges of the leather, allowing for a finer and more refined finish, essential for the Rembordé method. Skiving not only enhances aesthetics but also ensures greater strap durability. It is a practice that requires precision and skill, significantly influencing strap choice, especially for those seeking quality and impeccable details. For Milano Straps, skiving is an indispensable step for those desiring a high-end product.
