I kind of like this one. And it's only 69 cents!

I have found that one all over. BUT the roller is part of the buckle and does not come off.

Cheers,

Looks like a last crusade buckle to me. Anyone have a screen grab?

How about these? One for the belt and one for the bag.

Randy, what size are thoses buckles? One of them is the wrong size considering the belt is 2 inches and the strap is 1 inch. From the photo they look to be the same size. If they are 1 inch please give info on the bag buckle. Ie is it solid or stamped.

Cheers,
Jeff

actually, I believe the belt is 1 1/2 inches, not 2. Still, one is the wrong size.

Yup, it's the wrong size. I forgot.

Randy · Post by **Randy** » Thu Oct 09, 2003 10:12 pm

The silver one. The brass one is 1 1/2.

Gobler,
I like that second one you posted, I beleive this is the same one, from Tandy. Ive used it on a couple straps, but I believe its too long...

Were you the one that ordered all those buckles from A plus products?

IndyJames, I did order the buckles from A+ and they do look nice but I found if you put too much strain on the strap the buckel bends. As for the one here, no it is not the same. If you look closely to te one you posted it has an indentation for the bar to rest in. The other does not and I belive it is square. I am calling tomorrow to varify.

Cheers,
Jeff

The one I posted is smooth all the way around, I did just have to double check my strap though!! Yup no indent....!

I just now happened to find this one. It is very similar to Kepplers buckle.

My bag strap has something very similar whicxh i had found in a local shop. But this one looks pretty good and sturdy.

I also used that Tandy buckle!! I must say that it IS to long. It works as a temp buckle, but that's it.
