Why the hell did it  take me a year to realize this belt is size adjustable from the buckle end thanks to it being attached by screws and not sewn???

Lol

There is a video from like 2011 floating around somewhere.. a $3 leather punch kit from Michael’s works wonders btw!

As soon as I had my “revelation” I immediately  remembered seeing the video years ago. I happened to have the hole punch as well so the mod was easy.  I’m back to my original hole now.  Very excited.

Used to be “natural.”  Now it’s “aged.”

I can't remember exactly how long I have had this belt.  It was from the first run of natural we ever did, so I am guessing 17 or so years, possibly even longer.  It gets worn most days. The buckle attachment was beginning to get a tad shady (which after only 6,000 or so days wear is pretty pitiful  ), so I asked Haraki for a new piece…

The pimpage was done at Iron Heart camp in Japan about 6 years ago...

Looking pretty ropey…

Old and new….

A quick dose of olive oil (because that is what I had to hand), and we're ready for another 17 years…..

@GraemeE just told me the name of these beautiful screws ;-)).

not easy to open

[Aetas]

That’s one reason I love them @Kasi.

Never had to retighten them in ten years.
Bought this belt from @Seul a decade ago.

It’s the one and only belt I use.
There was no need for something else, after this IHB-01 turned up.

I want it chopping IH crew did it for me at the party.

The best belt of all time is IHB-02 Garrison Leather Belt made 12 years and still have it

I still have the OG plate buckle I bought from that Southeast Asian fisherman that used to be on this forum... His name will probably pop upin my tired brain soon... (And it did: mankarat!)
Anyhow... Thàt is the best belt ever made if you ask me

Oh here's a pic. You'd be surprised how hard it is to take a good picture blindfolded...
