Members Sylvia Posted June 12, 2012 Members Report Posted June 12, 2012 Wow. I don't know if I'd be able to resist telling him that this is a common issue, and that the "damage" can be reversed by repeating the "cleaning" process while turning the holster slowly over an open flame....... No... the proper way to repeat this cleaning is to boil it in gasoline over an open flame. *Kaboom!* (no more holster or ignorant customer) ***Please do not try this at home... this was only for humor purposes!*** Quote A teacher pointed at me with a ruler and said "At the end of this ruler is an idiot." I got detention when I asked "Which end?"
Members mdmorgan Posted June 13, 2012 Members Report Posted June 13, 2012 I had thought about posting something about not being able to please everybody myself. The customer is not always right, sometimes they are down right stupid. I'm way new to the process of making and selling holsters. I've been selling kydex beltslide holsters on ebay. Yeah, it's like a yard sale but you gotta start somewhere. Well, all the reviews from there and a gun board I frequent have been great. Everybody loves the holsters. Heck, I'm wearing one now. So a couple days ago a guy posts some feedback on ebay. The feedback is, "Ok for the money but won't last long having single thickness leather belt loops". Dude! Seriously?! All hybrid holsters are one layer of leather and one layer of Kydex. And it's a layer of 8-9oz Hermann Oak at that. I left a comment that he needed to contact me if he had a problem. But he listed it as positive so there was not much I could do. Some people. A part of me wants to go hang one on the kids swingset and see if it will hold my weight hanging from it. I think it will be close. So unless someone drags him around by his holster, I doubt I'll hear from him. Not ALL hybrid holsters. I make them like this. I don't like hardware Quote
Members chiefjason Posted June 13, 2012 Members Report Posted June 13, 2012 Not ALL hybrid holsters. I make them like this. I don't like hardware I like it, but a double layered beltslide would just be a holster. No need for kydex. Funny thing is, I offered an all leather beltslide made from 2 layers of 8-9. Maybe he should have paid the extra money an bought that. FWIW, I've been kicking around doing an all leather tuckable like that and just molding it like a normal holster. It's on my to do list. Speaking of hardware, I have figured out how to make some nice leather loops for the tuckables. I'm just waiting on the correct hardware to finish them off. Quote
