A Sunday Go To Meeting Rig....

[ChuckBurrows]

Here's a Sunday go to meeting rig or if you're a Texan a BB-Q rig....

The knife, hand-forged and built by the late Gib Guignard aka CactusForge, with a sheath by me, aka Wild Rose Trading = CactusRose 21

The knife in the sheath...

The belt only view - 1...

Here's one of the pistol the rig was built for...

The rig was inspired by the fancy rigs worn by Texas Rangers in the 1920-30's. The owner didn't want that fancy though, so I came up with a carving pattern inspired by the carving on 18th Century American Long Rifles, built in Pennsylvania where the owner hails from. The holster, knife sheath, and the belt are all lined with calfskin and the rig is entirely handsewn. The metal throat on the sheath is nickel silver to match the knife's fittings and the small concho is Sterling silver. All parts are lightly aged....

I lurk on the forum alot and probably should butt in more often. A lot of top notch things posted here, but for some reason this one brings a tear to my eye. This is really nice. If you have some more work to post, I'll sure look at it. Thanks for posting.

Man I love the color of the sheath. Very very classy.

Beautiful

Fantastic stitching, I'd have to echo Hilborne's statement

[Beaverslayer]

I can't stop looking at it either, that is one VERY beautiful looking rig. Is it the photography, or is it really that color? if so, what color is that?

I'm in the same boat, can't stop looking at it. Love the tooling, clean and simple. Awesome work there!

Not only is your leather a work of art, so is the photography!!!

The leather color is oustanding. And I love your tooling...simple and elegant. Not too much and not too little. You're one hell of a craftsman, Chuck.

Hello Chuck, I just wanted to let you know that your DVD's on leatherworking are very enjoyable! Your down to earth presentation and dozens of helpful tips and tricks made the viewing very excitiing and left me wanting for more! These items are just another example of your talent for this craft!

My thoughts exactly. Somebody went back for seconds when talent was being passed out. You should be either be that good with leather OR photography not both.

Seriously though, that is an absolutely beautiful rig. I've admired your work every since I got into leather work. Just curious, but is that belt single or double thickness. I can't tell from the pictures, but seems like to me that would be a lot of weight for a single ply belt.
