V Posted May 21, 2009 Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 For the last few months i was happy with my strap collection so i didn't had any new straps for some time.. But lately i had the urge to adde some more so here they are: 1) I will start with this cajun gator... I sourced the suede gator hide seperately and sent it to Brent who makes THE best gator straps.. I also sent him a brushed logo buckle to sewn-in.. He has stitched it in tan but I didn't liked the contrast and i restitched it in matching dark brown... I think now it is a perfect combo for my 118 2)This is an old vintage suede strap i have made to sell but i have restitched it in nylon gold thread, darkened the edges and shortened it for a better fit and kept it for myself... Also another good and different colour combo with the 118 3) This is a Strapmasters MMV X stitched strap.. I had the same strap in the past but slightly longer and the fit was not good for my wrist.. So I sold the other one and tried to source a slightly smaller one... it was difficult because only few of them were made but i did find it eventually and now it is a perfect fit in the second hole with tail going up to the 12 lug. It has a GPF Mod Dep buckle 4) Nr 4 is my own Ammo strap.. as you may know from my other thread I sourced some ammo hides from my last trip and I made one for my 112 with a GPF Mod Dep buckle as well because they are going fast 5) Another strap I made for my 118 is this stitchless with my new MarlboroV2 hide.. I like this leather so much that I wanted it stitchless to enjoy the texture 6) Last but not least it is this very unique strap.. Idea by Strapmasters in order to hide the holes.. Trust me it is VERY difficult to make with only partion gluing etc... I really like the strap because even if you have different leather hides it is nice to have a different design It is relatively short (not vintage style) and i have put a polished logo buckle. I think it is a very nice match with my 112 and I am planning to do the same with a black hide as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xlr8tn Posted May 21, 2009 Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 The Strapmasters rep is a really nice strap and the hidden slot for the hole punches is a sweet idea. The color on this is perfect. -Brent Cajun Straps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
