Does anyone have a link to it? Maybe from last year or so.
I brought it back to the top. "Different types of black belts" If that's what you were looking for.
Thanks!
Actually I am looking for the one with the different brands with comparisons.
I remember the thread, but not the name.
To sum it up, a bunch of us spazz end about how awesome our eosin
Panthers were.
Though, I will add a year and a half of use has left it quite frayed. It looks cool, but it's definitely beat up. I might try something else for my next belt. Maybe start a collection of black belts I destroyed.

What a nice belt.
Josh you gotta get a Eosin panther they are amazing. I think the thing will last forever. I recommend the smaller width. The belt is so heavy/thick the wider one is impossible to keep tied

I have a Eosin Panther and I am the envy of everyone. Unfortunately it's only because the belt is awesome, I suck at Jiu Jitsu. It's also ironic that NogiDavid has a hook up on belts.
I just got an Isami and I'm really pleased with it. Haven't worn it yet though, tonight is the debut. Went with the F400 model, not the F450 that they recommend for BJJ (one of my training partners has the F450 and I wasn't impressed). Forgot about David and his discount with Eosin - If I don't like how the Isami wears in, I know where to go!

Here's a couple pics of my eosin after 1.5 yrs, on the mat about 4-5 hours a day, 6 days a week.
It's an awesome belt, but you gotta like the fray.
It comes untied about every 8 seconds, which I like.
