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.

IF what you do is something that ANYBODY can do, then don't be surprised when ANYBODY does.
