Well I’ll be the oddball. I say, put a topcoat on it, and then antique it.

Holy smokes! Stunning work!

Thanks! Just my iPhone.

Yes these are all my own patterns and designs.

Very nice!

Thanks y'all!

And a knife sheath.

A few of my recent builds. Chest rig for a scoped revolver, with Timber Rattlesnake inlay. Basic strong side holster. Simple, rugged, tough, inexpensive. Belt, holster, and cartridge holder combo. 2nd pic is of me wearing it, to show the concept behind the design.

I would wait. I doubt it would ruin it, but it will definitely affect it and change the appearance.

Another for the Cowboy 4500. It changed my life as a leather smith.

Very sharp looking. Well done!

Thanks everyone!

There was in fact a reason. The customer asked for it to be made like this.

A few of my most recent builds. My Texas Sidekick holster (made to be worn crossdraw), a chest rig, and a simple western belt.

Same as above…not sure how I missed this post. This is a stunning work of art. True craftsmanship.
