Re: 2nd strap purchased for Pam 24
Matt, that combo looks great. My favorite strap (from another maker) looks very similar.

This is from today's WRUW, but I guess I should post it here, too.
Pam on the Kain strap.



Sure is a big buckle.

It looks like you need to order the next one a little longer Matt (or is it just on loose for the photo?). One of the things I love about custom straps is that you can eliminate all those extra Wu-Ken holes that no one uses.mattcantwin wrote:

Chris, it is currently on the second hole.CGSshorty wrote:It looks like you need to order the next one a little longer Matt (or is it just on loose for the photo?).
I usually get this length (130mm/80mm) and remove the second keeper.
I prefer a single keeper without too much strap beyond it.

Re: 2nd strap purchased for Pam 24
I am a single keeper guy myself. Incidentally, the second keeper is intended to be a spare, but some insist on ordering straps so long you need two keepers. I have been ordering mine in 140/80 and eliminating the small holes so there are few if any holes visible above the buckle.

WHat do you mean that nobody uses.CGSshorty wrote: you can eliminate all those extra Wu-Ken holes that no one uses.

My extra holes wind up on the other side of the buckle.
Also sometime it is nice to have some extra tail........

by the way the first keeper is sewn in.
