Flint, these are the types of slings I can really see a market for. Hard working weapons that look good, are super durable and don't take 30+ hours to make per sling. Are you selling them?

Not yet, but thats the idea. Now that I have a good pouch design, im trying out some ideas to make them look as good as possible. I was set on making my natural ones to sell but they take 2-3 hours straight for me to make and i know they wont last as long as paracord + leather.

Thanks! I wouldnt keep making them if they didnt work well. So far I have found that this design is good no matter how thick the leather is, i've tested and compared these out of almost every cut of leather i own.

Those are nice slings flint.  I really like the finger loop designs. Are you cutting everything by hand?

Thanks guys! yes, I am only using EMT scissors and a cheap leather punch to make these. I just ordered a better punch since mine is junk now. I might order some better cutting tools too, but I dont really have any complaints about my scissors.
