A chiv is very closely related to a pikey and indeed is all pikey, a subset of pikey, if you will.

The main difference is that a chiv's favourite style of casual-wear is Burberry.

Burberry baseball caps are a favourite amongst chivs but you do see Burberry shirts, shorts, shoes etc and very rarely you may spot a truly hardcore chiv bedecked head-to-toe in Burberry....nnnnnice.

A secondary difference is that a chiv is generally more stupid and therefore more vicious than a pikey...watch out...doubly nnnnice.

(CHEEV)verb... to chiv someone is give them a slap letting them know that they have crossed the line from being appropriate to being downright obscene.

Rapidly ages your body inside and outside. Gives you the appearance of a 40 year old sex offender with the personality of Charles Manson on bath salts.
