Very nice looking belt and excellent job on the inlays. That does look like alot of stitching.

Cool gun also, those are pretty rare arent they. I havnt heard anyone talk about those since I was a kid lol.

Question for ya, on the holster and other inlays did you double up the leather over the whole thing or just behind the inlay? It doesnt look like there is any stitching accross the top of the holster. Do you rely on glue to hold the double layer of leather if you use that. Thanks.

[DCKNIVES]

Thanks everyone. Max, yes I use a full piece, fully glued and it is sewn around the inlay only, and of course on the side.I only do stitching where the stresses are.On your question about the Wildey, they are not real common but this guy has three, this one and one with a 10" barrel and another with a 14" barrel.Dave

Thanks everyone.Dave

This rig is amazing. The inlays. I like the pattern you applied to the retention thong. A little western phen-shey, I'd add a silver tip to the belt.

[DCKNIVES]

Thanks Tom, the retention strap was patterned after the billet ends. It was originally set to go with a silver tip but he increased the size on everything and went with 2" billets then changed his mind on the tip.I was getting changes all through this build.Dave

I'm just now looking at this. My head spins and I feel that swamped feeling thinking about the time it probably took to build such a work

Incredible!
