Here's my interpretation of the Holster John Wayne wore in many of his westerns, and especially the one he wore in El Dorado.

Please, take a look and let me know what you think..

I'm a bit dis-satisfied with the the way the stitching came out on the main seam.  I had to re- profile the Strap across the front as on one picture you can see it was way too big (third Picture), so I cut it down top and bottom. I used stitching chisels and this is hand-stitched.

Thank you

Looks pretty good, I think.  Those little "boogers" in teh stitching are only that loud because of the contrasting stitch color.  Use a brown thread and that's a LOT less conspicuous.

Yeah, I am not crazy about the main seam.. off stitches..  And I used off white thread...


I have modified my pattern for this holster...

Nice Holster and personally I like the contrasting stitching. I'm going to try different color threads in my Knife sheaths.
