Scharf-Fix Paring Machine
Scharf-Fix Paring Machine
Couldn't load pickup availability
A simple device without complicated mechanisms or motors. It allows the paring of leather to become a simple routine. Edge-paring and corners are a 'breeze' to undertake and as it is also so precise, preparing onlays and inlays become easy tasks. It can also cope with handling large areas of leather. The machine is provided with 3 roller-cylinders of different widths - 4, 8 and 12mm to make it capable of paring even narrow pieces. The patented mechanism of the Scharf-Fix automatically makes the knife stay in the chosen position, so there is no need for time consuming readjustments.
All Scharf-Fix machines sold from 2018, have a manufacturer's extended warranty period of 5 years from original purchase date. The manufacturer also guarantees 10 years availability for spare parts.
Note - The Scharf-Fix can thin down leather starting as thick as 4mm. But if the leather is tough and unyielding, skiving it down to the final desired thickness might require 2 or perhaps 3 passes, decreasing the skiving thickness with each pass, until the required substance is achieved.
Spare blades may be ordered separately.

It was exactly what I wanted.
This took a mere 11 days to arrive from the other side of the world - given the international shipping woes of late, this was impressive. I appreciated it being shipped within hours of my order being received. I've briefly used one before so know how good they are and am now enjoying the chance to improve my skills and produce leather suitable for binding books. I found the guide on the DAS bookbinding YouTube channel a very useful addition to the written instructions.
All up, a most satisfying purchase - Hewit & Sons is to be highly recommended. Thank you.
Very nicely made tool which is easy to use - clamps to the work bench nicely when its needed and it comes in its own box so can be stored away safely when not in use. It pares small amounts at a time so good if you want accurate and consistent work.
Hi. Super quick delivery. Well packaged and, thank goodness some instructions. Haven’t sat down and tried this out yet, but hope to this weekend.
Good price, quick delivery - well pleased
