Montana Silversmiths is one of today’s premier buckle makers and probably sells more buckles than any other company. Montana Silversmiths’ modern production facility is located on the southern edge of Columbus, Montana, and within a few feet of the Yellowstone River. The business philosophy has always included creativity, innovation, passion and hard work as cornerstones since its beginning in 1973. Dennis Potzman is the President and there are about 200 employees.
The company is actually owned by Thompson Capital Street Partners, a private equity fund in St. Louis.
All buckles are silver-electroplated, containing 99.9% pure silver by government standards. The patented “Montana Armor” is guaranteed for life not to yellow, or tarnish. It is 10 times stronger than lacquer.
I am a Montana Silversmiths dealer and have many of their buckles on my website Beal’s Cowboy Buckles. If there are other Montana Silversmith items you’d like for me to get for you I’m happy to do that. No shipping cost and no extra charges for special orders.
