Solid Offering From Crafter Blue

Post by SethR » Thu Nov 15, 2018 12:50 pm

Just received the new Crafter Blue fitted strap for my Black Bay. Fits great, super comfortable and only $65 vs the $200+ for the Rubber b equivalent.

Only issue is the god awful scent that Crafter Blue uses. Here are some photos.

I'm wearing my Shogun on their fitted rubber strap right now. There is a slight smell if I stick it right under my nose, but it isn't at all noticeable under normal circumstances. The vanilla scent off an Iso is much stronger by comparison.

^ I have found the scent to fade over time, and smells much much less than the vanilla Isofrane that I had before.
Iso used to give me a headache actually.
