Sneak Preview of Tyger's Sporting Kilt Buckle and Belt

[tyger]

Lately I have done a little fishing with my kilt on. Nothing very demanding (no waders!) or out of the ordinary. But I sure didn't like 2 things: the sporran/strap, and my standard belts and buckles. Nothing really against my belt/buckles if one is wearing a tie; however, sans tie I fet a little ridiculous. I need something a little less formal when ties are not part of the dress.

So, I started to think about those casual comfortable web belts........and I figure that I can either make, or brass- or copper-clad, a steel clam-lock buckle and put it on a web belt. Of course, it will have to be embellished with a sterling silver Tarpon (or permit, bonefish, redfish, trout, salmon, or bass)! Busy at Tyger Forge, I will be!

Here is my conceptual design, please feel free to comment:
