IHB-08 - Heavy Duty "Tochigi" Leather Belt with Nickel Plated Garrison Buckle

You could try polishing with a super-fine abrasive like a silver polishing cream/liquid, we use "Silvo" in the UK. But be aware that the nickel is a coating on a base substrate of brass, if you get too enthusiastic, you may expose the brass.
Personally, I would live with it, but then I'm a slob….

Hahahah I'll just opt for this. I'd rather that it looks worn than I go overboard and f$%k it up. Thanks!

I have access to a glass blasting machine at work, I've given the metal bits of the belt a treatment with the glass blaster, giving it a satin matte finish.

I should add, that it also removed the patina on my belt during the process. I too wasn't a fan of the look.

Hahahah – thank you for further reinforcing my decision to leave the belt alone, @BULLITT BEE!

I've got a natural one of these with the brass buckle, but I'm curious — to anyone who's got the nickel version, does it end up dulling out / patina a bit? That's what I'd want... the brass version does so pretty quickly, but I can't tell from the pics what this one does.

@popvulture I’ve worn mine a lot and the nickel hasn’t tarnished at all. I’ll post a pic when I can.
