Bazil brush 474 Posted August 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 Cheers ss collars have there place, I have had quite a few and still do have one left, his leads are good I wouldnt use anything else tbh, but I don't think you can beat a traditional collar for hunting with alot lighter and a lot less bulkier imo. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bazil brush 474 Posted August 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 (edited) Tb25 I want a tradional leather collar! Now please don't fill this topic about ss gear as im not asking about ss nylon collars, other people deserve to sell there gear like black dog as I'm sure ss appreciates. Astanly I like my leather collars pal I tried to get some at peover the other day but couldn't find what i wanted, i like the look of these and it would be good to hear back of any happy costomers of his. Good traditional leather collars with brass fittings are hard to find mate. Edited August 11, 2013 by Bazil brush Quote Link to post Share on other sites

stewie 3,387 Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 the collar on my old bitch on the right is from BDT and about ten years old.....still as good a the day i brought it...............the one on my bull cross was on her few years back when she was a pup but tbh it wasnt the same quality as the older one.......shit leather, the brass fittings fell off and the red lining used to run in the rain turning her chest pink............ she got it off one day in her kennel and chewed it up lol...........cant say i was to bothered.............

Astanley 11,598 Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 Iam a bit of a traditionalist myself , and prefer leather but fek knows why because the nylon ones are harder wearing and longer lasting , That link does look interesting are Harris and Watson still going ? some of their stuff was like works of art .

MIK 4,763 Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 I use Jims leather collars on my lurchers when there just out and about and in there kennel but when they are grafting its strong stuff collars all the time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bosun11 537 Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 Before I met Aaron I used to use either Black Dog or Glynn for my collars, both produce ok leather gear thats reasonably priced. Harris & Watson are still going Alex, there was a link up on here a while back. Baz, just as a matter of interest, have you seen the SS lurcher collars? The brown or black with brass fittings are cracking kit, very light weight and made for any size of dog. I've got one on my mutt, forget its there most of the time and looks and is performing as good as when I got it over a year ago. They are well worth a look. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
