    I've got the Al Stohlman head knife from Tandy and it's very easy to sharpen and holds an edge well. I do have to strop it before each project but I no longer have to use my diamond stone on it. I watched a few YouTube videos on sharpening a head knife. Weaver Leather has a good one. Just take your time.

    Looks like you learned a lot and got a lot out of it. Love your work. Please share more in the future.

    Your talking about copying an Ernie HIll rig. He switched to rawhide lined holsters a few years ago and is very successful especially in Cowboy Speed Shooting Events. Once the rawhide is almost dried you should be able to use Barge. Good Luck.

    When getting started I always pierce the thread about 2 inches from the end and tighten it up. Seems to keep the thread from falling off the needle while stitching.

    Thank you very much.

    I've been wanting to try to tool a holster for a while. I normally basketweave but this was my first attempt at a flower that I like. All comments are welcome.

    I do it once or twice on each stitching progress. I'm getting better though. I stop and inspect the thread. Take my needle and push it back through the thread, then carry on.

    Exemplary!! You did a fantastic job.

    I like the design and the stitching is fabulous. Tooling is spot on and your line around the stitching is most excellent. Can't wait to see more of your work. Congratulations on a job well done.

    I tried to carve a rose and my initals in this holster for a Heritage Rough Rider. Just a simple holster made of 7 ounce leather, dyed with Chocolate dye. I decided I don't like Chocolate. It's too dark for me.

    That is so cool. Thanks for sharing it.
  17. AzShooter

  20. AzShooter
    Thanks. I'll try that.

    I'm making a holster for a revolver and I've carved in a rose and my initials. I dyed it with Chocolate die but want to bring out the highlights. Is there a chocolate antiquing or what should I use?

    I saw one on MakersLeatherSupply.com the other day. Sorry if it's not there any longer.

    Maker's Leather .com has the 1911 with the squared trigger guard.

    Nice design and I like the way you did the pockets.

    holster

    AzShooter replied to Frodo's topic in Show Off!!

    Great depth and detail. Looks good but I'd like to have seen a outline all across the holster. Loved the way you matched the belt loop with the main body. I'm impressed.
