Not long ago I dreamed up a project which I could not produce alone, so I contacted Tyger of Tyger Forge fame. We exchanged particulars and he made this for me:



It's a belt buckle with my initials, d, b, and h imposed. I've used this as a sort of shorthand signature for several years, and now I can proudly display it to the world. I'm going to try to use it as ID at the bank.
Anyway, the buckle is copper with pewter lettering. There's a special process (which I don't understand. I call it magic.) that Tyger used to produce the "pitted" background, which I really like. He'll chip in here soon and tell you all about it.

Here's the back of the buckle:


The belt slips through the big ring, and catches on the clasp. It's the easiest belt-clasping system I've ever experienced. And that's not saying much.

I'm very pleased with this buckle,and have plans to commission another one with my college seal once I get the college tartan process up and running.
Tyger does excellent work, is a peach of a communicator, and is open to pretty much any kind of design.
