Members katsass Posted July 22, 2010 Members Report Posted July 22, 2010 I've been doing some leather working off and on for a couple of years now. This is my latest holster. Made it for a friend of mine. It's completely lined. Hand sewn with the saddle stitch. I used artificial sinew. 7-8 Veggie tanned tooling leather with a 4-5 veggie tanned tooling leather liner. I know it doesn't compare to the work I've seen here but it's my best so far. VERY nice combination of a skirt holster and a California Slim Jim style, and very well executed. As said, the hammer thong came in around the 50's, IIRC, when the fast draw craze hit, and the movie westerns became a bit more than the black-and-white "B" grade kiddy shows. I see none with a hammer thong in my go-to referance book for historically accurate holster work "Packing Iron" until about then.
