Y’2 / The Shop Eco-horse Henry 1.8mm is getting a lot more wear. Typically layered with my IH type 3 vest. Breaking in nicely.

Progress on the break-in. It’s looking better and better. Still stiff as hell.

Eco hoarse shirt has landed. Soooo stiff, but so good. Smells amazing. Went with size 46 and fits a bit tighter than my IH 18oz CPO or UHF XXL.

Thought I’d share an amazing score I found this summer on Poshmark. All in I paid $250 Canadian for a brand new pair of JK Boots. Normally these would have been north of $900 to get them to Canada. The best part. They are my size. Rough out lower 10 inch smooth upper.

Freshly oiled with Obanaufs:

I do a bit of leatherwork. I found it awkward to carry a leatherman everyday due to thickness. I did up this pancake Leatherman holster in 9oz (I think) veg tanned leather, hand saddle stitched with Kevlar thread. Treaded with beeswax and Obanaufs.

Just grabbed the green eco horse western. Hope it’s here by weeks end! Will post some glam pics for you all.

Any body get sore elbows (inside of arm) during the break in? I sure do. But the break-in process is well on its way.

Fades starting:

Hello Everyone from Edmonton Alberta Canada. Been lurking for 10 yrs and never posted. I’ve been wearing Iron Heart since 2013! Really enjoy the overdyed denim and UHF shirts. Looking forward to interacting a bit more with folks on here.

I’m into vintage safety razors and use them as my everyday shaver. I currently have / use a Gillette “Fatboy” and a “Fatboy Slim” from the 1950s and 60s.

@Matt I have the same knife. Probably from 96 as well, when I was in scouts. I still have it!

Dan Carlin - Hardcore History is my fav podcast. Covers mostly war, violence, human extremes over the ages (ancient to WW2 / Cold War era)

Highly recommend for any history buffs.

@Autorotate will do. It’s a pretty big financial pill to swallow. Quality over quantity though.

I recently went to an only one kind of sock rule for fit consistency and predictable performance. I’ve been exclusively using Canadian military wool socks that I find new in bag at thrift stores. I usually get them for $3 a pair. I like not having to rummage through the sock drawer. As an added bonus, I not longer have to find matching pairs. They are all the same!

@Autorotate that indigo tho. Nice jacket dude. I’m on the fence between the blue and the green Y’2 western shirt… leaning towards green.

I’ve had Chris Reece, Hinderer and Strider in my pocket over the last decade. But I always came back to my first “real” edc knife. The original Spyderco Manix, pictured here along with the Native Chief.

I’ve been a huge Filson fanboy for many years. I find it increasingly difficult to shop there anymore though. Pretty much everything is now made overseas and still commands a premium price. I will continue to enjoy my made in USA items like the tin cruiser and mackinaw cruiser but probably won’t shop there anymore. It’s a shame. But… it’s more Iron Heart bucks now
