Strap buttons on the cheap
If you are like me and are.. frugal [read: cheap] here is a great substitute for strap buttons -- assuming you use them
Hillman Brass Knurled Nuts 10-32 $1.75 from Lowes (US) and you will need to get the brass screws 10-32x1/2. Also $1.00
pic to come

I know some guys like to find new ways to do things and that's great. But if you buy your strap knobs at CGGitty's you can get 12 of them for $8.49 which works out to about $.70 per knob and that pretty damn cheap and it's the real deal besides.
And you're doing business with a great company like CBGitty. You can't lose
