Custom Basketweave Belt

[dfrensdorff]

Just off the bench … custom hand stamped Basketweave belt made to go with a custom buckle. Hermann Oak skirting w/ burgundy latigo lining.

Very cool. I'm in the process of making a holster, double mag pouch, and belt with suspenders for my XDm for practical pistol matches. I'm liking the basket weave, I use it on most of my holster reinforcing pieces. Nice job!

Good looking belt . . . and I must say. you certainly have a ton more patience than I.

My "grumpy . . . aggravated . . .  exhausted" meter would have been pegging half way thru the belt.

May God bless,

Was this just dyed or was it antiqued to get the color it is? What did you use?

It was dyed with Fiebings dark brown … after it was dry, Neatsfoot oil, then after that was dry, tan kote.

Thank you, and no, I did not make the buckle. It was made by Sheridan Buckle Co. It was brought to me by the owner to have the belt made.

Thank you … Practice, proper casing, and a good stamp are important … I use Barry King stamps.
