    JL custom m200

    Man, that's great to know that you rate that hide as well. Now I know I wasn't just imagining how good it was.

    Nothing wrong with that, I do like a well made one. Still want to have a jacket with a nice riri with it. Nice to know, is that what Japanese makers use for their jackets?

    Got it, I'm in the same thinking so long as it works and don't break too easily. I actually like trying different types of hardware, for variety and to experience the difference.
