I don’t do these things to other people, and I require the same from them.” THE DUKE!

What leather? Thanks. The leather is Hermann Oak 8oz to be like what the 19th century called bridle leather. The holster is closer to 9oz. 30 minutes ago, TonyV said: Beautiful work! Thank you. Quote

Well, in the old books the bridle leather back then seems to be about 7-8 oz. Most holster work done now tends to be a heavier leather.
