Title: Seems well made
Review: The loops at either end are nicely stiched and not riveted -- having had rivets rip out in a flash I strongly prefer the stitching.The leather is a substantial 0.154" thick (a little more than the thickness of two US nickel coins).Initially the black leather lead is quite stiff. Although I rubbed it down with a bit of neatsfoot oil, I think the leather would have losened up anyway.I use the lead for obedience work on a headstrong 88 pound male Doberman. The lead is easy to handle (once the stiffness works out) and more than up to the task of stopping even an energetic beast his size.I can't say enough about the merits of a thin lead like this when handling a dog. I can easly hold all but the necessary 8" to 12" when heeling the dog and yet quickly go to 6' long when working on stays, recalls or jumping.It remains to be seen how this lead holds up on the long term, but at the moment I'm optimistic.
