This buckle is amazing despite being 5 times more expensive. The laser engraving is beautiful. I had five single words engraved. Impressed. Very well done. High quality metal works well. Be careful what you want to engrave. Left or right hand. A few weeks later. Unbuttoned at the slightest provocation. Loosen on a thin cobweb. Best used for demonstration purposes. Impractical, like a belt buckle. I would like to use it daily. TO UPDATE! Using a thick mesh belt works much better. Then it won't slip and there's less chance of accidentally detaching it. Now I would buy again.
