Buzz kidder sporran quality?

[JRB]

I've got that same sporran. I think it's the best sporran out there for the money. The leather is very nice quality and it is very well put together. I really like the magnetic closure because it sort of works all by itself and can be done with one hand.

Just me. The quality on the BK sporrans is good, no question. Problems I've had with them are that the "hand hole" on the top is too small for my massive paw and once there's "stuff" in the sporran its very hard for me to find that tiny snap and connect the flap with the magnetic closure.

Of course I also have my usual rant about marketing sporrans without giving the dimensions (is there anything more important to the purchaser?) or showing the photo with an object so size can be estimated.

As long as you're at SWK why not get a ballistic nylon nightstalker and fall in love with it then replace it with the leather version in a few months when they come out?

But, biggest thing. Wrap a tape around your paw then ask if that size will fit into the top opening to find what you need.

Yes, but will it fit on Big Mikey's head?

A couldn't agree more. I'll probably get the ballistic nylon sporran too.. I like to change accessories a lot (blame this on Donna).

Ardchoille: not a hijack attempt, but wanted to relate something the wife told me the other day. We were getting ready to go out, and I changed my outfit. I was wearing the new Newsome Leatherneck box pleat, a black polo shirt, and my RKilts sporran (distressed bronze leather) and brown shoes. I gritted my teeth and finally decided that the black shirt clashed with the overall color palate, and switched to a green Skagway t-shirt. The wife looked at me and said, Until you started wearing kilts, you never matched your wardrobe colors!

I can sooo relate My life has been enriched since I have been wearing kilts.

Amen Riverkilt - Ron you've hit one of my sore spots right on the head - what other product can you spend yards of cash on without even slighest hint of its basic dimensions? Its absurd.

No doubt whatsoever that the Buzz Kidder is a quality product but I'm saving my loose change for one of Jerry's leather nightstalker sporrans. I think its going to become an instant must-have classic.

I can't add too much to the comments already here except to say that I have one of these and it is probably the sporran I wear the most.

Thank you all for your posts. I bought one and it should be here very soon

I ordred the Stillwater Nightstalker (Nylon) it's wonderful! I can actually store my 'stuff'' in it , and get to it without dumping everything on the floor.

However, I was shocked and apalled when I logged off and sat there for a while, and no delivery! It actually took a whole three days to be delivered. disgraceful!

Just kidding! Jerry is the tops!
