Members dikman Posted June 29, 2015 Members Report Posted June 29, 2015 (edited) Very sumptuous! How could someone not be happy with that. The British Tan has a very "rich" look to it. A couple of questions, if I may, as I'm very new to all this and trying to learn as much as I can. 1. Why do you "cut" the stain? 2. What is NF? 3. I was wondering why you didn't line the holster. (I thought it made it smoother for the revolver). Edited June 29, 2015 by dikman Quote Machines wot I have - Singer 51W59; Singer 331K4; Seiko STH-8BLD; Pfaff 335; CB4500.

Members Red Bear Haraldsson Posted June 29, 2015 Members Report Posted June 29, 2015 You cut the stain to lessen the amount of color you are putting on the leather. Basically making the color lighter. NF is neat's foot oil. Lining is a matter of preference. Quote

Members Red Cent Posted June 29, 2015 Members Report Posted June 29, 2015 Very good work. That ain't no regular Blackhawk. That is a three screw Blackhawk. Quote https://www.facebook.com/redcentcustomleather?ref=bookmarks http://www.redcentcustomleather.com/
Members dikman Posted June 29, 2015 Members Report Posted June 29, 2015 Thanks Red Bear (the answers are pretty obvious - once I was told!). I had another long look, and I realise that what really appeals to me is the under-stated elegance of it, as in no flashy tooling and shiny baubles. It just looks right.
