Second Iwb Holster Complete

[savage_here]

OK guys and gals. Just finished up my IWB holster for my Glock 23. Thanks for the suggestions on post of my first holster. I must confess that this is really my third holster overall. But, I wasn't thrilled with the progress on the second one (for my HK P7), so I've scrapped it. So, this is the 3rd started, but 2nd completed!!

I did dye the edges on this one and did a little more thorough burnishing. I also got just a touch better wet-molding results. I went back to using water for wet-molding after my less-than-satisfying results with alcohol on the second holster. I also used the same method for this one as the first where I stitched the slide side first, then wet-molded, then stitched the trigger side. Again, this was a lesson learned from the second holster where I tried to stitch both sides prior to wet-molding. It's hard to do it the half-and-half method because I'm hand-stitching, but I think the results are worth it.

Anyway, looks and feels pretty good to me. We'll see how it rides and feels after a couple of days use.

Thanks again for all the comments and suggestions on my first one. It helped!

Wow! That looks fantastic! I would never have believed that this was your third holster if you hadn't told me. Your attention to detail and stitching is first rate.

That looks really good!

and my #3 holster worked great, but it looked like crap...
