Well built, sturdy, I recommend this belt.
This belt is really well built. The non-buckle end has been dipped (or 'painted') with what seems like a clear epoxy. That epoxy, or whatever it is, is not real heavy, it doesn't hamper use at all. It looks like it was put there to prevent fraying. It seems like a great addition, I've seen belts like this that are cut with a 'hot knife' that leaves a bump all along the cut end. Overall I really like this, it's non-magnetic, which I need for work, it's well built and I highly recommend it.
