Hi,
I am new, a greenhorn when it comes to leather crafts. I have an Old Ted Blocker Holster that's seen better days. In other words the seams are coming apart. I believe it is for a .22 Auto. and is similar in size and shape to a Kel Tec PF 9 (close but no cigar) I was thinking if I can reform the leather and then re-stich the seam where it has come apart I may be able to get it to fit the Kel Tec fairly snug and safe. My question is that even possible? I hate to get rid of the holster because the leather straps and holster are still in fairly good condition But have no other firearm that will fit the holster so if it can't be reformed it may not even be worth the effort to repair it. I am also considering using deer skin for the re*stitching because it is what I have on hand coupled with the fact I also have a leather punch. The question here is do I order an awl and thread or can I make a nice durable repair with the deerskin lace? I'm a newbie her but have a lot of vintage gun leather and old knifes that need sheaths so bear with me as I learn to use this site please. I added PIC's of the Ted Blocker I want to repair if I can reform it, Thanks
Dan
