Often, nowadays, I find that I am disappointed when opening an eagerly anticipated parcel only to find the contents below my expectation. Therefore, you can imagine my joy to receive an item that not only is going “to do what it says’s on the tin” but also excites at least four sensory responses, those of smell, touch, sight and anticipation.
The room is now full of the smell of new leather as I look at the stitching of the keepers and D ring. I also like the care taken in trimming the leather round the brass hooks. Can’t wait to use this sling but first I must take it to bits to treat the leather if it’s going to have any chance of surviving the UK summer!
The leather makes a very nice creaking noise so there is the hearing sense taken care of as well.
So much pleasure from one well made sling…Thanks Jon.
