New spurs

It's been a busy week in the shop already. The first set is on it's way to some preconditioning pens northwest of here, where they will see hard use the rest of their lives.

I hope they serve Tim well.



The next set are made using 4140 steel, nickel silver, and buffalo nickels on the buttons.
They are a one piece spur, with a 1" band, 1 1/2" shank, and an 1 1/4" rowel.



These spurs are for sale and can be shipped anywhere in the continental U.S. for 325.00$.

SOLD! Thanks.

Here is some more information on 4140 steel.

I use it because I can lighten a set of spurs up and still maintain enough strength to not bend easily.
