Doing some roughout holsters for a change

I haven't done many roughout holsters; there's definitely a knack to keeping the look clean and consistent.

Man, those look sharp.  Did you use Tokonole finish on the outside?

Those look great! I bought me some of those clips a couple years back but have never used them. I noticed you used screws to secure them. Are the holes in the leather just punched for the screws? Stabilized in any way? 

Great job again!!!

Not really a fan of rough out, but man you really made it look great!

Thanks for the kind words-means a lot!

 

After wet-forming, I used Weaver's 'leather firmer', since I want my holsters to be as stiff and sturdy as possible. After that, there's a dip in Resolene, and that's the entirety of the finish. 

 

The clip is mounted to slotted posts mounted under the reinforcement piece wrapped around the mouth of the holster.
