This is a holster I made for a client to test out some design features for me. It's the third holster I've made, and is based on the second one I made, which I've been carrying for the last few weeks. I used Fiebings Pro Oil black dye, and coated it with Resolene, then Tan Kote (both applied with a sponge brush) and finally Sno Seal.

This is my first time using the oil dye, and I like it! Still not sure about resolene (hard to make it look good without an airbrush). Will tan Kote seal against moisture the same way?

Overall, I'm pleased with it. :)

That's a nice looking holster. I like the amount of boning you did, not to much and not to little.

I like the way it's adjustable depth and cant.

Thanks! I used 4/5oz leather for the front of the holster and 8/9oz for the back.

Tan-Kote is NOT water proof, or even water resistant. Damp rag will take it off.
