Called at Margaret’s workshop recently and had a jeans belt made and saw these School Belts hanging up. All made to the exact design and pattern used by her Grandfather and Father. Made with the same skill and craftsmanship as done by her ancestors who produced a strap that sent fear through many a school boy being told he was to be belted for his misdeeds, knowing the immense sting it would inflict. The Tawse’s Margaret makes today are not replica as seen on the net. This is the REAL THING for any collector/connoisseur or for recreational use. Beautifully polished and top quality English tanned Buffalo Butt hide used which is very dense and stiff.
From order to delivery in 4 Days.
