Great points. Can't compare with SBL. Different animals.

Thanks, this was helpful. Love the copper tube. Trying to decide between SBL, this one by the Colonel, and the #1943. Wish the 1943 had the copper tube.

It does

I own the bag

[@maxvalentine7830]

it's called burnishing and you can only do that with veg tanned leather... SBL uses chrome tanned leather so the edges cannot be burnished/finished

The problem with the leather is that it's too soft and it won't be able stand on its own.

I think snaps lose tension over the years.
