IHB-08 - Heavy Duty "Tochigi" Leather Belt with Nickel Plated Garrison Buckle

[manufc10]

Very nice belt and very nice breakdown @Alex.

Personally I don't treat mine with anything, just let them age.

We're not sure when the black and brown versions will arrive, but when the natural belt goes live later today we've included black and brown combinations to enable requests on the website page for automatic email notifications when these other colours come into stock.

How wide is this?

While not IH, here is my Samurai belt in natural, about 2.5 years, untreated.

Buckle will get less shiney with wear? Is one of the old Garrison buckles laying around?

[Giles]

It'll get less shiny with wear as long as you treat it with contempt.  No old Garrison buckles aout, just the new ones….

Does the old one fit? Think a friend still has my old brown…

[Giles]

Should do.  Same width leather….

[JCMx800]

Gotcha!

[Dion]

Enjoy! This belt is awesome and I kind of like the new oversized buckle.

[JCMx800]

Looks great with the IHSH-50!

Today I've noticed that my belt is missing one screw :'(. Damn, it did come undone unnoticeably and got lost. @Alex @Giles do you have any left? I'd need two screws and two of those small parts the screws are being screwed into (sorry, dunno what they're called) so I can have a replacement and a spare one for the future.

[Giles]

we have them here

[Dion]

Nice to hear, should I drop a message with my next order then?

[Giles]

Yep…..

[Dion]

Great! And done.

Since mine is already half-dismantled and also felt pretty dry I gave it the complete Obenauf's Leather Oil treatment and it became amazingly soft and supple. Note that this is the brown version which looks almost black now.
