Don Smith made Sharps cartridge box in solid used condition. It's got scuffs and some nicks but very usable. It has mint original roller buckles and includes both modern made tins. According to Don, this is the only example he has made of this box. Information from Don Smith regarding the box is below. $125 including shipping.

War. Completely hand sewn, has Belt loops and Sling Loops, Comes with
