Beltman vs Sparks belt

kingdaddyoh · February 8th, 2009, 08:11 PM

Anyone have both? I am going to order and wait on a primo set-up. I am probably going to get Milt Sparks to do both the holster and belt (in leather and/or shark). I know Sparks holsters are top-notch, my question is are the belts of the same caliber?

I don't have both. But I do have a beltman and I recommend them highly.

You've got the right idea about ordering a complete rig from one maker. I'm a big Sparks fan... holsters, pouch, and belts. No experience with Beltman, but they have tons of fans. I just like to keep it all the same so there's no fit problems.

I have used RafterS, but recently ordered one from Beltman. I chose him based upon delivery time. I may have done as well with HBE, and am having second thought.

I hope someone does have both a Beltman and Sparks belts, as I am also interested. Might also like a comparison of Beltman and HBE, but do not want to hijack the thread.

But so far the OP has not gotten an answer to his question. We know that both makers have a following, but who can make a comparison based upon ownership?

Regards,
Jerry

Ive been using the same beltman belt for almost 3 years now, it still looks great and does the job. I can't say enough good things about beltman belts.

Sorry, I don't have both, but have used Sparks belts for over 20 years with no problems. They are top quality and built to last. I have friends who feel them same about the belts from Beltman. Both should be good quallity and last along time.

Thanks, that's what I wanted to hear. I've heard such wonderful acolades regarding his holsters but I guess they just overshadow his belts. I want a "BBQ" outfit, you know, something that just stinks with quality workmanship. Happy Birthday Me!

Here's a BBQ setup, Beltman worked with TT on the dye color to match.

Great thing about the Beltman is this is his primary specialty making belts.

My new rig is almost here...
