Just got my new copy of "Packing Iron". What a great book. I can't wait to try some of the holsters shown in the book.

Packing Iron is my favorite leather book. I like to cruise through it for ideas. I suppose some day, I'll have made something from ideas gleaned from just about everything in it.

Howdy Major,
Your Holster would look right at home on page 76. Beautiful job! This is the look I hope to get close to achieving someday. Many thanks for sharing this with us.

Major 2, I was ready to go to page 76 of my copy of Packing Iron to get a closer look at that holster! You did a really fine job on that Slim Jim. Everything about it is excellent. Thanks for sharing, JD

Major nice job. Its sort of funny, about a week ago I started the same holster. I got both holsters cut out and the belt is done. 1 holster is part done. Hope it turns out as good as the Majors. Very good. KT

AC ... glad you like the Cattleman, I never heard from the fellow in Va. that bought the mate.
Kid ... I can't wait to see yours
Johnny... I used some of that Pebble Leather you sent me and made a Lined Mex Loop Holster & money belt for my friends 58 Remington.
I still have two sides left with 3-4 oz lining it makes nice holsters.

With all your tallent, I'm humbled you guys like the holster.

Major u do beautiful work. I know mine will probley not be as good as yours. You nailed it perfect. KT

That's some beautiful work, Major. I really like that one on P76. Your work could be mistaken for an original. YOur other holsters are cool. Very nice work. Thanks for the pics.
