    Here is one such bloke I found when searching for ammo boots after being interested in them from another thread.

    That's the one I saw before, couldn't find it again, thanks. He charges $50 just to bull the toe and heel of the boots, plus the shipping. If you want the full boot beeswaxed and bulled it's $90 plus shipping

    And he claims a turn around time of 28 days because he's so busy.

    But those are definitely shiny boots.
