Here is my newest creation. My father in law wanted a holster so I figured I would make him one for Christmas and surprise him with it. He really likes the basketweave design so that is what I went with.

I with with a natural antiqued finish on this one instead of dying it. Something I had not tried yet. Always looking to grow and learn so I figured it would be a good time to try it.

That's beautiful, Rube. Nice even basket weave. What a fine gift. Your FIL should be extremely happy with that.

I like the antique finish. I've used antique finishes without dye before and always liked the result. Nice work.

Thanks. This was the first time I tried the antique without dye and I do like how it accented the basketweave.

It also imparts a subtle coloring to the whole project, too. What color antique did you use? Medium brown?

Great Christmas gift. Beautiful job of stamping and finishing.
You need to learn to like all the little everday things like a sip of good whiskey, a soft bed, a glass of buttermilk,  and a feisty old gentleman like myself
