Deluxe 8 strand  braided leads are crafted over a strong nylon core. Each  nylon end is melted and stitched to the handle or around the slip ring or clip end with strong waxed nylon sting. Then over braided and coverd with a matching leather knot braid for total security. The double handle is great for dogs that pull  or for a "Beefier Look".
The 18" is handy for tall dogs, close in for traffic or vet visits and easily put in a pocket or bag.
