Rohn Report post Posted January 21, 2015 A couple of holsters I just finished. Dyed with Fiebings OX Blood dye. I think the one with the black looks better. What do you think? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LLWork Report post Posted January 21, 2015 I think I like the one with black also. It's a nice contrast. But the all Ox Blood one looks sharp also! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rohn Report post Posted January 21, 2015 Thanks for the comment LLWork. I actually have an order for the one that is all Ox Blood. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Troy Burch Report post Posted January 21, 2015 I like the black contrast best but the ox blood is nice as well. I think it would really pop if antiqued with mahogany. Very nice Troy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hi Im Joe Report post Posted January 21, 2015 I'm going to go against the grain and say I like the all oxblood holster more! Both are very nice! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thefanninator Report post Posted January 22, 2015 Both look good. Gotta go with the black and the contrast though. I did a matching archery arm guard & quiver set once and I made the border match the double loop lacing. Maybe try a black border with the black lacing.

camano ridge Report post Posted January 22, 2015 Rohn, your ox blood looks good. When ever I try ox blood it always ends up looking pink. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LLWork Report post Posted January 22, 2015 Rohn, your ox blood looks good. When ever I try ox blood it always ends up looking pink. Mine ended up almost purple. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
billybopp Report post Posted January 22, 2015 Fiebings ox blood is one of my favorite colors, and I often do contrasting colors just about like you have done. I like 'em both, tho! Bill Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eddie1968 Report post Posted January 22, 2015 both look great. nice work there Rohn Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rohn Report post Posted January 22, 2015 Thanks for all the great comments. The more I look at these holsters the harder it is to say that i like the one over the other. This is the first time I have used OX Blood but it will not be the last time. I ordered more today. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stu925 Report post Posted January 22, 2015 I definitely like the ox blood with black better. I like the contrast better. The ox blood looks nice on it's own but with the black looks a lot nicer to my eye. Stu Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Basically Bob Report post Posted January 22, 2015 I like them both, Rohn. Great job! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Halitech Report post Posted January 22, 2015 as usual the work itself is great but I like the one with the black better. Just enough black to offset it enough that you can tell the main is ox blood but not too much black that you loose sight of the ox blood behind it.

doubleh Report post Posted January 31, 2015 (edited) Great work. If I were choosing I would go with the oxblood one. Nothing wrong with the oxblood and black but I just prefer solid color holsters. I used to own a pair of cowboy boots with oxblood bottom and black tops. Boy, I though they were pretty and loved them but that's boots and not holsters.

Rohn Report post Posted January 31, 2015 Thanks Doubleh. After had had them dyed and finished I liked the one with the black trim better, but the more I looked at them the more I liked the all oxblood one. It seemed to grow on me. I guess it would be hard to choose one over the other for me now that I have had them around for a while. They are up for sale on ebay but so far no takers.
