Hammered Bottle Opener Buckle RED by metalogical on Etsy

Description

Our top selling buckle! Field tested and approved by experienced bottle openers worldwide! This unique buckle makes a perfect gift for that hard to shop for person and comes in handy at those parties or camping trips where no one can find a bottle opener!

Each buckle begins life as a piece of 3/16” steel. The 3” blank is heated in a forge to 2300 degrees and shaped on the anvil. The circular opener is hot cut with a handmade chisel and shaped meticulously with a hammer. It is then bent in a press, welded, cleaned and detailed to perfection, and sprayed with a durable clear coat and our RED metal dye.

Measures 2” X 3” and fits a 1.5” – 1.75” belt.

This listing is for a buckle only and does not include a belt. Please see our buckle/belt combos if you need a belt to go with your buckle.
