Working on a matching set of buckles.
And some saddle silver from a day or so back

Your engraving always looks so clean and crisp. I see that you also spilled the required amount of blood for the job to be done!

No blood, just dirty hands

very nice work, for sure. why is the buckle called, "5/8" ? just curious

That is the size of the leather that it will fit. 5/8...3/4....1 inch...and so on.
This is referred to as a cart or center bar buckle.
