Sharky’s large round knife, 12.5 cm

Patterns ask for confidence. The Large Leather Round Knife by Sharky Forged Steel Tools brings a wide, sharpened sweep that tracks corners, straights, and skives without fuss. Its ash handle sits warm in the palm, steady through long sessions. Out of the box, it’s ready to meet hides of different weights with control.

Clean cuts, quiet focus

Edges decide everything—stitch lines, seams, and the way a wallet closes in the hand. With a 52100 high-carbon steel blade shaped for trimming, skiving, and shaping, each pass leaves less to correct. The balanced 135 g build keeps movement grounded, so patterns stay true and craft moves faster with fewer re-dos.

For leatherworkers who prize feel

Makers moving from utility blades to a dedicated round knife that handles both sweeping cuts and close control.

In daily practice

Lay the hide flat and draw the 12.5 cm arc through the grain to trim patterns, feather edges, or shape curves in one steady motion.
