[CJsmalls]

tanner belt, natural + black hardware, just under 5 months old. didn't treat it with anything, might have to moisturize it soon somehow.

really enjoying this belt so far, color just keeps getting better.

tried to take these pics in the same lighting everytime, color is pretty accurate

[MikeS]

I was curious if anyone had an opinion on if this belt is origional to the belt buckle? Buckle is stamped 1975 on the back. The belt is pretty beat up. I Got this from a thrift store 8 years ago and it has been worn almost every day since... I know its not a 300 dollar sammy but for 2 bucks it has done its job for the past 8 years!

[hollowsleather]

That buckle is a thing of beauty. No insights regarding the belt's provenance, though.

[MikeS]

So after a few hours of searching I found 2 people selling these buckles in the original box that S&W sold it in in 1975 so im going to say this belt was added by someone. Hollows, Shooting you a PM about something...

red moon kids. around 9 months. tanned/conditioned when i first got it. neatsfoot about halfway through.

[aaronmetcalf]

made this leather wallet card case for my roomie out of untanned leather and stamped his initials in the back. oiled it with redwing boot oil. should last forever.

[Dioxic]

Not worn too much, its a great wallet but as you can see I've got no cash. It cost $300 and isn't sold in the US. I'm selling for around 150, price is negotiable if anybodies interested.

do you ever find that the spikes make it inconvenient to carry/put in a bag?

[callejeros]

I just wanted something diferente because I do not take the netbook except I travel in my car and actually it´s pretty confortable!

[vamks]

Found an excellent store in Florence run by a husband and wife who make leather bound books and notebooks. I bought this today, incredible.

Awesome store, definitely worth a visit.
