I second the marble slab, buffer and wood burnished mentioned above.

If you're going to be tooling be sire to get jewelers rouge to strop tour swivel knive. This will help keep a nice honed edge and will prevent your blade dragging, causing your leather to ruffle around your cuts

[Tooled Pistol Holster]

Howdy All,

I'm brand new to the forum, and wanted to begin gathering some feedback on my work. Started leather working as hobby just a couple of months ago after being inspired by savoy leather and Sam Andrews videos on YouTube. This was my first pass at a tooled Springfield XDm holster. Made from 8oz Oak-leaf and lined woth glazed pigskin. It has a neatsfoot oil finish, and painted tooling. Finally I top coated it with acrylic resolene. Thoughts comments and critiques welcome!
