I've got a question. After the holster is stamped, how do you wet form it without distorting the stamping?

You treat it just like anything else you wet mold. Only difference is I do it all by hand on stamped holsters. I had a big problem with this on my earlier work but the problem was I wasn't casing the leather before tooling. That made a huge difference in the stamping lasting.

Cool. I got one for my uncle I'm working on tonight. I just did a simple beveled line about 1/2" in from the edge, with some camo stamps along the line. I just know I'm going to lose them when the leather stretches for the gun though. When it's done I'll post pics in the thread I started for his wheelgun holster.

Thanks for the info!
