It's a flat slider sling, the earlier of the canvas types. I've heard of them going for as much as $100 US but not what he's asking...

[Bill Hollinger]

Yes, I would steer clear of the above mentioned sling as well. Not just because of the price either.

I was wondering if it might be a Danish copy. I've seen flat slider slings accompanying Danish returns here in Canada. The web looks different and so does the color of the finish on the slider...
