I started making belt buckles when I bought a kilt. I needed a buckle to go along with all the other highland dress, and I could not find an artist crafted buckle. Everything was factory made. So, I bought some metal and taught myself basic jewelry making skills. Soon, I was selling kilt belt buckles around the world.

But hunting and fishing are my passion, so it was not long before I had to make myself a few wildlife buckles. Then others wanted them, just like what happened with the kilt buckles.

Every buckle tells a story. From "Having a Damsel for Dinner", to "Bug Out Bob", to "The Sundance Kid", I have designed each buckle with action so that it tells a story.

I personally make each belt buckle from six 100% recycled USA metals and gemstones. I use hand tools and traditional jeweler's methods to craft each buckle into art that you can wear 365 days, all year long.

Each buckle is partnered with a full grain buffalo leather belt.

I also am proud to make the world's best web belt: the GatorGrip© belt. My GatorGrip© sportsman's belts are the world's best because the solid brass GatorGrip© buckle stays where you put it, and will never slip during a day in the field, or on the water. I started making these because the store-bought belt buckles always slipped. What an aggravation. My GatorGrips are handsome, comfortable, strong, and rustproof! Satisfaction is guaranteed. See why "My toothy grip will never slip!"
