I really like your style!!!

BTW: since you mention "no handhole" - is there a real purpose for the handhole (besides ease of handling the saddle ?, does it really help in airing the horse's back?) ?

Very cool indeed!!!! I like everything about it. It has a style all its own. Love the loop seat and high back cantle without cheyenne roll.

The combinations you chose for this saddle work very well in my opinion.

Good job and very original.

Thanks for posting.

wow, Steve, another beautiful saddle incredibly well done! My amateur eye sees a well-balanced saddle with a sense of calm about it, like everything is where it's supposed to be. As it no doubt is.

Your shop, on the other hand, looks totally chaotic!

Thanks for sharing, Steve.

Hey Steve!

That's a beautiful job, and I'm sure your customer will be rightly impressed.

Traveller,

As one who's shop sometimes looks a little like that, we prefer to think of it as "lived-in"... :youwish:

My choice early in life was either to be a piano-player in a whorehouse or a politician. And to tell the truth, there's hardly any difference.

Tosch,The first saddles I saw with no hand hole was in Idaho.It was first done to stop juniper needles getting against your horses back and also keeping the cold from coming up their.As to do we need to cut them? I think that is the customers preference.
