    I have looked around the Net and cannot really find any good suppliers of Cantles. I wanteded, well could not find anything that was not antique, or too expensive that was brass. I do not want to spend a small fortune to purchase a brass one, nor do I want military, or antique. As you see below, I am currently having a nice day brown leather Sporran made. Of course I would like to have it done with a brass cantle, stud tacks, and other parts for making this sporran in brown and brass, but could not find one. Any ideas were to look or links on line?Here is the one I am having made, would like to have had brass, but if I cannot find what I want. Guess I will have to stick to this one exactly shown below, but still love it. I like the Templar Cross, Celtic knots on the cantle, and the leather cross in the medallion with the silver stud tacks around the edges. This silver or pewter, not sure what it is, has a nice appearance, not loud but to my out classy looking. I guess the brass would make it louder, but different. When I first found it I fell in love with the look and thought to make it a little different the brass would be a great addition. Since I really do not have a nice day sporran, since I plan to go to Nova Scotia Games in July, I would like to have this. Getting made now.
