Luna Slim

Beeeyouteefull!!! Is the extra layer on the outer side just for looks? Or stiffening? Or?? Just wondering 'cause I'm gettin ready to do a pancake holster for a Kimber 5". Also was thinking of adding a little place for the little bent paper clip thiggy required to break down the pistol. Again, NICE!

Thanks all for all the input on what I'm sure is a well thrashed subject!! Olive oil eh? Cold pressed? Extra virgin? Actually, I think I'll try OO on something. The videos were very informative - Thanks! I went ahead and used neatsfoot on a holster I just made (WWII 1911 style for web belt - no tooling), and yes, it turned dark. That's OK. Thanks again! BTW - this is a great forum! LOTS of activity - so much to learn! - Tim

First off, appologies for blunders getting set up with you folks - Seems like all the forums I belong to are set up differently. I am starting off with (tooling?) leather in the 6-8 oz range making holsters and knife sheaths. Which is better for the raw (maybe sometimes dyed) leather, Lexol or neatsfoot oil? Matbe more generically, what is each of these best for? Thanks
