Medusa Holster Complete plus fancy packaging.

When you have good customers, it’s nice to give them something special.  I lined the box with soft felt to protect the holster during shipping and added the practice carving as decoration.

Thank you.  I bought the box at a local store for 7 bucks.   I couldn't make one for less than 300 bucks.

Nice presentation! I can hear the recipient opening that and saying, "WOW!"

[fredk]

Most excellent

Good presentation is often forgotten about

Thanks!  I wanted to inlay the leather into the box top, but it wasn't thick enough to do it.  Might have to start making my own boxes.

Is that Linear B on it? Koridade ?

[Bob Blea]

That is a first class holster and packaging!  They are definitely going to be wowed!

Everything about that is awesome. Your customer is going to love it.

nice work on the holster and cool idea on the box. However, you overpaid for the box, I can get them here at the dollarstore for 2.50 lol

Thanks dude.  You're probably right, but I live on an island and EVERYTHING is more expensive.  Maybe you can ship them to me in bulk!

Linear B is an ancient Greek text, still being deciphered.

The letters forms you have on the holster are;  ko ri da de

I thought you'd used it to put the person's name on it

You're very close.  Ko Ri Va De and the organization who ordered it is Koryvantes who specialize in historical recreations of greek artifacts.  Good on ya!  I was unaware of the name of the text and it is my understanding that it was not ONLY the Greeks who used this system of writing, but I just mad the holster.  Also, normally this text would be written vertically, which makes sense since its linear.  It wouldn't fit anywhere on the holster and be as visible as he wanted so its horizontal.
