I would say yes! since G. once posted images where he said how to cut/shorten a belt to a special length.
on the salephone ATM otherwise I would have quoted that post here…

so ordering a large one would be your best bet I'd say!

It's a piece of piss. You need a screw driver, a sharp knife and a hole punch or drill…...

ha! In other words, you'd rather not.

Giles

I do it all the time. I over order the XL's and cut to size. It's a 5 min job….

Ah, so this translates into "it's a piece of cake" around here. Understood.

Giles

That is a correct interpretation….

We have piece of cake too, but PoP just has a better cadence to it…..

About time I did this:

G, great video. Just when I was looking at my belt yesterday to do the same. Looks like it is now time. What is the name of the hole punching tool you use?

injunjack

G, you need bigger hammer….

Giles

It's a leather punch. I bought a set of them off the bay:

a drill works fine as well if you don't have a punch. not as clean, but you'll never see it anyway.

Ah yes, that's what we call A Finnish Screwdriver in the UK…..

What I used to use…..

injunjack

…and here he goes. I was serious. With bigger/heavier hammer you don't have to pound so much to make a hole with a punch....Oh, well.

BTW do you know what is a Russian Ass-Buzzer like? (I remember you spent time in east block way back then...)

Well.... It doesn't fit in yer ass, and it sure doesn't buzz....

Giles

….....does not fit in the ass, and does not buzz.. otherwise works as intended

EDIT: Whoops, you beat me to it....

Hi all

I recently bought the Iron Heart IH-02 belt in natural. I've had it about a week and it's incredible, the best belt i've ever owned.

My question to the board is should i hit it with the Obernaufs leather oil now to protect it straight from the off, or wait a while?

Also if i do decide to oil it now, do I coat the inside of the belt as well as the outside?

Any/ all thoughts greatly appreciated
