Something what experience taught me .... Never use a screw / knife to make a hole in the belt ....

And when purchasing one , try to get a fit in which the central hole fits your waste , that way you have scope either way ....

Leather belts last good .

Thinking aloud , would drill machine be a bad idea ??? Seriously ...

I went to Dixie outlet mall last week and got a few holes puched on two of my leather belts. I went to one of the kiosks near Aldo outlet inside the mall. The owner of the kiosk was a desi. He charged me $1.00 for each belt and puched a few holes.

Hope this helps.

Yeah, I was gonna say...why not use a drill? I've done it before and works great.

Two things to remember when using a drill.

1. Place the belt on a drillable surface (no not your dining table) such as a wood board so that the drill drills through the belt and further in order to get a complete hole.

2. Reverse the drill when pulling out the drill, don't try to yank the drill out of the hole, it will leave a frayed scar on the hole. Reversing will give you a clean hole.

Hi ,

What I usually do is hold the belt between two pieces of scrap wood and drill it.
