:shock: Wow!  :eek:

Good looking holster!  I'd sure like to see it with my own eyes and feel the leather.  You're quite a craftsman.

Thanks folks for the kind words.  Howdy I stitched it by hand. Using a awl and  needles.  Hard work for sure but worth it.

Big Hext if ya come up for regoinal ya will be able to see em in person.  Or I just need to get down there and shoot sometime.

Singing Bear....I have made other things too.....Cuffs and knife sheaths....this was the hardest to make for sure...

Not that I don't admire that hansome young face of yours, Don't even go there :roll: , but I sure do miss the original moniker. Just somethin bout it that was appealing.
