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. Slip leads have a movable stop knot that can be positioned behind the brass ring to keep the neck loop from falling too loose or in front of the brass ring to help prevent it becomming too tight.
