Two new straps on the way from Micah



I received this photo of my straps before they were shipped.
Hopefully here early next week.

It's always cool how he sends you the photos before they arrive. Only a WIS would do that!

+1. And his straps are even better when you get them.

Will do. I'm really looking forward to seeing them in person, especially the Metta.

I'm curious about the metta as well. They look so plastic to me in pictures, but they are so much more expensive. Look forward to your feedback.

Congratulations on your forthcoming straps.

Please take a photo of them attached to your Pam.

I have just purchased an 11 year old Micah strap, which I have been told has a Patina like to butter.

Can't wait for it to arrive.

My straps have been delayed in the mail - argh!

They should be here in a few days to a week, so I'm back to waiting (im)patiently.

I really like the Metta. It's comfortable and very good looking. The Mauser (ammo strap) is thicker and looks like it could survive a nuclear war. I like them both a lot. I think I like the leather better on the Metta but the round holes on the Mauser better, but that's just picking nits.

No real criticism. I'm impressed with the guarantee Micah offers. Basically, guaranteed, period. He states it in a humorous fashion in the paperwork, but that's the point.
