Two more Armaggedon belts

[Dougster]

I have for you two more belts. Made from 5mm thick bridle leather, edges burnished and creased with solid brass buckles and hand stitched keepers with waxed nylon thread. The single prong has four oversized rivets and the Sam Browne six.

These are serious belts and unlikely to fit your jeans.

One is a standard, single prong 2 inch belt, which will suit a belt 36 - 48

The other is a Sam Browne with extra floating keeper and would fit 33 - 42 waist

Please see my previous thread for feedback on these belts:

Apologies for the crap pics, the flash has whited everything out.

Hi Dougster, what's the longest you could do one of these belts? My waist isn't that huge, but I need a nice, sturdy long black luggage strap for an old school suitcase.

 

[Dougster]

Can't believe I forgot the important bit. Single prong £35 and Sam Browne £40..

David, I'llpm you in the morning. I'm afraid I'm losing focus after the two days I've just had....

No worries Dougster

Gentlemen,

these are the last belts you will ever buy. 5mm is more than double the thickness of many leather belts. Richards skills lie in leatherwork - but not photography I am forced to say...the belts are vastly better than they look - burnished finish, really heavy and massively robust. I genuinely believe you could tow a car with one and not damage it...in fact I would bet money on it.

I lack the means of proving it - but I suspect they would also survive a direct hit from a hellfire missile.

The 2 inch belt fits a pair of 5.11s so should fit most military type belt loops - but they are also great worn over a coat

I rarely sing praises - but these deserve it - the Armageddon belt is well named

+1 to that.

I've recently received one of Richard's belts and I am abolutely delighted with it.

I'll take the single prong one as its just the right length I was after! Half asleep now. Will sort the PayPal when I stir at lunchtime if thats ok.

Another pair of good looking belts. Look strong enough to be part of a cart horse harness.

In all honesty, I have to say that those prices are an absolute bargain for leather and workmanship of that quality. Look for example here: http://www.tannerbates.co.uk/sales/the-oakbark-leather-belt or here http://www.equusleather.co.uk/index...r-Belts/Russet-Oak-Bark-Belt/flypage.tpl.html for bridle leather belts of comparable thickness.
