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

                …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.... 😃

                    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

                      All down to personal choice.  Bear in mind that the colour will change once you apply an oil.  Take a look here:

                        Not to be a downer, more for the potential enlightenment that I hope ensues. The cracking along the edge of my belt is annoying.   Prefer the aging of my sugarcane.

                          I too prefer the IHB-01 over the 02. The 01 is one héll of a belt, whereas the 02 feels like a plastic toy in comparison…

                            I think the 01 and 02 share same leather, only difference is hardware, surprised you would find such a difference seul

                                Nor pics nor my words can accurately describe the difference, but it's there and it's very noticeable  🙂 Must've been the Elton John of cows that provided for my 02…

                                            hmm, you reckon i can fit in the W32 for 634S? don't wanna end up looking too baggy in the jeans since its straight-cut. and, is there any chance that i can get my hands on the belt? the black one.  😞
