what process do you use to burnish the edge? I got a side of HO from Kevin and I can not get it to burnish like the leather I got at first from Tandy.

IWB Holster Question
gearjammer711 replied to tazzmann's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
I would not use a liner if it is a modern gun coating, they will wear better then one would think. or you could do one like the milt sparks summer special ( rough side out ). -
New to holster making
gearjammer711 replied to bigo5552000's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
8.50 sounds high IMO. a full side could be a bit much for your first. Call Springfield Leather they should be able to give you a better price and they will cut so you don't get stuck with a lot of leather , a side will make a lot of holsters. BTW shipping on the leather is not as bad as one would think. and if you have questions springfield will answer them. Kevin must have spent 30 min on the phone with me on my first order. (PLUG) -

2nd photo...more critiques please
gearjammer711 replied to carljc72's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
The holster looks good brother Carl. I am going to try a holster with the same kind of loops ,are the belt loops held on only buy the back part of the snap, or do you use some Cement ? -
loos good , the edge takes time to learn, you have to get a smooth cut and the mosture content of the leather needs to be right. some people use diffrent cems. on the edge but if you can learn when the leather is right it will burnish great. it is still hit and miss with my holsters. BTW where did you find the working tools stamp.
