Description: This is a new made copy of the 1832 Foot Artillery Belt by Stewart Historic Saddlery of Ash Fork, AZ., and most likely the last 1832 I'll make. Considered, by some to be the most beautiful belt issued to a US Soldier.This sale is just for the belt, it does not include the 1832 Sword. The pattern was taken from an original in the collections of a Museum in Oklahoma in 1999 (see photo of my notes taken at that time). The leather used is American tanned buff that is no longer available. I have to make the adjustment buckle and rings by hand out of solid brass bar and rod stock, as proper hardware is not available. The buckle is from Parsley's Brass, that sadly has recently closed their doors. In fact this belt is A 100% made in the good'ol USA item , a statement that can't be said much these days . Proper "R. Dingee" ink stamp is located on the inside of the belt All stitching is with linen thread , 8 stitches per inch . I'll include a small plastic bag with clay powder to help you keep your belt ready for Company Inspection ! In the past my price to make these belts was $460.00. Size adjustment holes are from 38 out to 42 inches,. More holes could be made for a smaller fit. My shop name is located under the buckle fold, out of plain view. THE 1832 FOOT SWORD IS NOT PART OF THIS SALE ,used as a prop fort he photos only.
