ask and someone on the site may make you one. i would offer but i am 10 days away from Elk season.

that is very nice.

There's an old saying don't put anything in your hand that wont fit up your .... if it gets taken. If you carry it you better learn how to use it. Just so ya all are clear in the US it depends now on who you hit, who you are, and most importantly how good a lawyer you can buy. Justice has nothing to do with it and yes prison sucks. I believe in self defense but I also have seen firsthand decent people in prison for protecting themselves. Back in the day the prison guards would use them but now they have much better ways to deal with bad behavior.

oh yes you can they are illegal because its very easy to kill some one with one. your whacking the thing that holds their grey matter. a decent roundhouse to the temple area and they are toast. When you get one done try it out on a melon or some such you will be surprised at the power.

i agree they are considered a deadly weapon, a boot is considered a boot.

but I will add I make them like marshalwills also, they work just fine too.

the front is essentially the same except the front strap goes all the way over and the back snap is on a dog ear. that way your thumb pops the snap as its going down the correct off side of the revolver. I'll try and find a pic.

nice job, did you skive the inside of the sheath at the spine? the fold appears kind of bulky

its a wonderful job of stamping and appears to fit well. i really like the way you stamped the camo turnaround by the trigger that is a hard spot to fill and make look good. i would suggest a more finished strap to match the holster somehow, maybe to match the lower strap, it looks out of place and as bladegrinder says a bit to long after the snap. My two cents on a strap, it is dependent on the type of holster you make and the intent of usage for it. I do however feel most holsters need a strap of some sort. you can put a thumb break on that style by adding a dog ear at the top back by the fold of the loop with the male snap then sew your strap on the front of the holster or design it into the pattern. i meant female snap.

go for it!! I can't wait to see what you come up with.

that's half the fun!!

never slowed Clint down lol.

that is some nice work!

I wouldn't resist them because there are no real outlines to follow I think the brand will dye differently than the rest and be just as noticeable.

Awesome as always !!

you rock man!!! a doll to last a lifetime.

plus there are tons of you tubes on it as well as quite a few here use them so if you have questions ask.

That is some nice work!! Leather is useful art, you will love working with it. It takes acrylics very nicely as well as dyes.

That's taking it to the old climate change demon. replace a 150 watt light with a 150 watt element then add a few extra leds so you can see.

wet form your trays. then use rivets.

bacon oil has nitrates and or salt in it which will have a negative effect on leather imo. plus it usually burns to some degree in the frying process Lard and tallow are rendered by boiling in water so burning doesn't happen.

so i cut 5 pieces inch square. then used 1/4 teaspoon of each which turned out to be to much so i soaked some off with a paper towel. Then I applied neets foot oil to the one marked peanut oil, lol switched those around, then ran a thread through all and hung them in my green house. 1 Neets foot oil 2 peanut oil 3 feibings golden mink oil 4 elk tallow 5 control piece. NFO and peanut oil are both very light oils so soaked in nicely. The tallow and Mink oil had to be heated with a hair dryer. I can tell already the elk tallow is way to heavy on its own as a liquor for leather however it may work well as a mixture with lighter oils as a water proofing. The golden mink oil I believe has a good portion of petroleum jelly in its mixture.

I've spent about an hour looking I cant find any thing like them. i can see they are expensive on that site due to the nice craftsman ship no doubt, they are nicely made. You could buy several cheapo wing dividers and set them and leave them. You could make them from about anything not necessarily metal. You could take an old set of dinner forks and tweak the tines to the desired widths, crab / lobster forks maybe even.
