Matte Black/Natural Rope Dog LeashThis classic leash gets more beautiful with age and will last for years to come. Handcrafted in our studio in New York, our dog leashes are hand spliced to withstand hundreds of pounds of pull with the ends then "whipped" (an old nautical term) for additional durability. Fixed on the ends are our solid brass lockable carabiners designed to allow additional safety for our rescue pups big and small. Nothing ages more beautifully than marine grade rope
