loopinluke Report post Posted August 12, 2010 I really like that saddle. Your lines are perfect, and its amazing to me that you can have that much untooled leather without a scratch or blemish on it. Your experience shows, and that should make somebody a hell of a nice rig. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you do not mind me asking, what is the difference between a 3b and a Weatherly - I look at both and to me they look the same. Thanks Billy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
