Made by hand
Every buckle starts in these hands.
We’re a small, family-run, veteran-owned shop in Loveland, Colorado. There’s no factory floor here, just a small crew who builds the molds, casts the metal, and finishes every buckle by hand. It takes a little time, and we think you’ll see why it’s worth it.

NFS volunteer pin
Nice quality piece. Would have been 5 star but the catch on the pin back is upside down & falls open. EZ to fix tho. Just remove the catch & flip it upside down & crimp it. Now it doesn't fall open
-
Excellent Quality!!!
Beautiful heavy quality badge. It fills the entire USFS shirt center pocket flap when attached. Now I am afraid of scratching it...

US Forest Service Volunteer Badges
As the last original member of the 20 year old Mt. Hood Wilderness Stewards (VOLUNTEER Rangers), in the face of slashed USFS recreation budgets & the difficulties with recruiting, retaining & rewarding dedicated volunteers, my purchasing & presenting a new volunteer badge to our hardest working participants is the least I can do to show appreciation for the sacrifice of their time & energy to "Preserve, Protect & Promote Wilderness By On-The-Trail Leave No Trace Education." I have been a Western Heritage customer since you began in the 70's, when I was a FS employee, buying the dress FS buckle (#781), then the Willamette NF & the Malheur NF buckles when I worked on those Forests. I've been a relatively regular customer, ever since & all of my interactions with your staff have been excellent. Thank you for the services you provide. - Barry Stuart Keller, Mt.
