Members Stetson912 Posted September 26 Members Report Posted September 26 I revised my pattern and came up with this. It is based on Lou Alessi's design but i created the pattern based on photos. It is made from a single piece of leather. Quote

Members DoubleKCustomLeathercraft Posted October 3 Members Report Posted October 3 The bone work is sharp and deep. Nicely done. How's it feel? That's the most important part of any holster. 😋 Quote

That's the most important part of any holster. 😋 This is 6/7oz (thats why the detail is crisp like it is). The built in s curve reinforces everything allowing the use of lighter leather. Because of that and the curved front edge, its the most comfortable holster ive worn or made. I can move around and sit with it no problem and I hardly know its there. Im a big guy so everything iwb kinda pokes and prods but this one is much more comfortable in comparison, and this is a full size 1911 too. Quote
CFM chuck123wapati Posted October 3 CFM Report Posted October 3 I like it, its a good design for sure. Quote Worked in a prison for 30 years if I aint shiny every time I comment its no big deal, I just don't wave pompoms. “I won’t be wronged, I won’t be insulted, and I won’t be laid a hand on. I don’t do these things to other people, and I require the same from them.” THE DUKE!

I find this comment to be key to a lot of business in the industry. As a holstersmith myself, the best compliment I've ever gotten is just about what you said. "It's the most comfortable holster I've ever worn." Or the other great compliment is, "I find myself carrying my pistol now often" The biggest problem with EDC firearms is the fact that a lot of holsters are just notoriously clumsy or uncomfortably bulky.
