First Agitation Collar

On my next one I'll take more time gluing the two peices together and burnishing the edges. But overall it will serve its purpose. The handle has deerskin stitched on the inside so it is easier for the handler to grip.

That is the fanciest agitation collar i've seen do far ... nice work !!!

Your work looks very nice and clean..

Thank you for your critiques. I' wanted nice heavy collars that looked as tuff as the dogs they were on. I'm looking for different hardware.i would like to find nice heavy solid stuff.

Other than the deer hide on the handle, is that all veg tanned? A friend asked me to make a collar for his working dog, put I was concerned about durability and strength with veg tanned. They operate in some extreme conditions. What weight leathers are you using? The collar looks substantial....I like it.

That is all Veg tanned. I sealed it only using some neutral kiwi polish. No problems yet, but im in California so im not sure if i know what extreme weather is. I used two peices of 7oz glued and stitched together.

Couple more items I'm working on I messed up the stitching on the harness but my friend is happy. Hell I was already ruining it with pink
