Members YinTx Posted January 17, 2016 Members Report Posted January 17, 2016 Turned out nice! And if you sold it that fast, maybe it was worth more than $65? I think you spent more time, money and skill on it than $65, but thats just my opinion. Congrats on the fast sale!

Members horsemen76 Posted January 17, 2016 Members Report Posted January 17, 2016 Very nice work! Definitely worth more the $65 in my opinion. Love seeing your projects as they are always very well done. One question, how do you do the molding over the stamping without smooshing out the pattern? Great job! Quote
Members snubbyfan Posted January 17, 2016 Author Members Report Posted January 17, 2016 The price is what the market'll bear. I've done some research and that's about average price. Most people don't realize how much work goes into a custom holster. Very nice work! Definitely worth more the $65 in my opinion.

Members horsemen76 Posted January 17, 2016 Members Report Posted January 17, 2016 Thanks for video reply, that's awesome! I'll have to give it a try. Great work once again. Quote
electrathon Posted January 17, 2016 Report Posted January 17, 2016 I like the blue a lot. My only critique is all of my jeans have yellow thread, I think that is pretty common. Quote
Members snubbyfan Posted January 17, 2016 Author Members Report Posted January 17, 2016 Then my Levi's must have faded thread. The thread I used on the holster closely matched the thread on my jeans.

Members stu925 Posted January 17, 2016 Members Report Posted January 17, 2016 The price is what the market'll bear. I've done some research and that's about average price. Most people don't realize how much work goes into a custom holster. I've been getting $75 a piece for my IWB or OWB holsters with no shortage of work. Could be the market's a bit more inflated here I guess. Shoulder holsters are going for $175 although I don't make many of them which is a good thing for me, I don't particularly enjoy making them. Honestly though holsters are a small piece of my leatherwork. I'm with YinTx, I think you could have gotten more for it but if you're happy with it that's really the only thing that matters.

Members blackcoffee Posted January 18, 2016 Members Report Posted January 18, 2016 (edited) Any chance for a quick video on burnishing the edges. You have the look I'm after! No worries if you're too busy making stuff to sell ;-) Edited January 18, 2016 by blackcoffee Quote
