Romanian General Purpose Strap, Surplus
General-purpose straps made of leather are becoming quite rare but now you can get them again, for a while at least. This time Romanian ones, short and long. One-off batch, so when these are out, it’s all gloom and doom again.

Use
The general-purpose strap is your friend. You can attach all sorts of things to all sorts of things with these. Old-time outdoor folks and DIY wizards should hog a bunch of these because leather straps tend to break in tough use.
Size info
These straps come in two sizes. The short ones are c. 26 cm (10.2”) plus the buckle, the long ones c. 70 cm (27.6”). The width is c. 2 cm (0.8”). Because this is surplus, the measurements can vary a bit.
Condition
Used Romanian military surplus. Some of these have seen more, some less use. There can be some scratches, dents, and dirt on these. The leather on some of these has become hard, so you should grease them properly before use.

Long thick and sturdy.
A good deal.

Leather was fine but on both of them the pin for the buckle was broken.
Both of them went in the trash, and I used two BW general purpose straps instead.

Kaikki oli ehjiä ja siistejä mutta kuivia ja kovia. Nahanhoitoainetta tarvitsi että sai ne notkeiksi.

itse sidoin 70-luvun Ladan takakonttiin ladan oman työkalulaukun näillä ja tuli 5/5 :D
tosiaan osa saattaa olla osittain kovettunu joten suosittelen Ekol öljyssä uittamaan tai sivelemään ennenkun näillä tekee kummempia :)

Good quality but needed treatment (dry). Light cleaning with saddle soap then applied Tallipoika (black version). Straps took on very nice shade of brown which goes well with the Romanian green. Strong and sturdy. Hope to buy more.
Very good deal at current prices.
N.B. - recently purchased two more straps but in long version. Both in great condition. One is smooth leather like the short versions: the other is a shorter, soft, suede-like belt that was probably used to consensually restrain ‘prisoners’.
