Frodo Report post Posted October 11, 2021 Japanese members or anyone that is in japan. I found an old Japanese holster from ww2, and the closure on it is crazy cool. I can not find anything like it here in the states I am wondering if you perhaps have this hardware item locally? A brass backing plate for a sam browne, CRAZY COOL, I want 100 of them Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mulesaw Report post Posted October 25, 2021 Hi Frodo My little brother lives in Japan, and I have forwarded your post to him. He sent me a link to a Japanese dealer, and explained me which Kanji sign I should look under. But there were only regular Sam Browne buttons. No backing plates. He'll try to ask in some leather shops if they know of it, So I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a positive reply from him at some point. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And it is available from a U.S.-based company. https://ohiotravelbag.com/collections/catches-clasps/products/p-3112-nic?variant=40506470105287 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
