You have been a busy man. That's a nice clean neat looking Holster. Great color!

Thanks. Its Fiebings Saddle Tan Pro Dye.

You're right though, I have been pretty busy. I really don't know what took me so long to get into leather craft. I have been thoroughly enjoying it.

Looks good, Rube. Your buddy should be quite pleased with that. You're really getting going on those 1911 holsters. Thumbs-up!

Seems to be my most requested holster lately.

It's a popular piece. I don't know too many people who dislike them.

First project of 2021. Decided to make a pancake holster for my Case Trapper.

Marshal Will Wingam · January 01, 2021, 01:18:43 PM

Looks great. I wouldn't have thought of a pancake for a knife. Good design there, Rube.

Thanks. I seen the design somewhere so I thought I'd try one myself. This is my second one I did. First one a few weeks ago was just a plain one for a Buck 110. This is for a Case Trapper and stamped it some.

I love it Rube! Very nicely done!

I've been thinking about making one of those myself. I think I'll have to tackle it now.

Rube Burrows · January 11, 2021, 11:21:06 AM

Thanks. I have been making a few of these lately. Pretty straight forward and people seem to love them.

Johnny McCrae · January 12, 2021, 10:28:35 AM

Very nice. Great design and workmanship. Many thanks for sharing this with us.

Made this for a Christmas present, but timing and Covid is moving it to a Birthday Present. It is similar to the one I raffled for Pirate Day, but is veg tan.

Been working on this rig for a fella with an 8" & 10" Ruger .44. I started it last March or April, but had a couple illnesses, dog maulings, cold weather, wet weather, and finally a mold infestation that ran me out of my shop. Every time I wet a piece of leather, it would be spotted with mold the next day. Plus, I knew it was going to put forth a mighty battle, and, it did.

Marshal Will Wingam · January 12, 2021, 11:46:51 PM

Good work, Mo. I remember that other one you made. It's a cool design. Someone is going to be happy to get that.

Nice, CQ. Sounds like you waded through all the obstacles and prevailed. It was worth it. Looks good.

Rube Burrows · January 13, 2021, 09:16:35 AM

Nice work guys.

Gunleather · January 19, 2021, 02:58:03 AM

Here are a few I've done over the past few months.

DeaconKC · January 19, 2021, 02:19:12 PM

Love the job for that 642!

Marshal Will Wingam · January 19, 2021, 06:32:43 PM

Nice work on all of them, GL. I like the way you burnished the top of the basketweave on the second one.

I know, it's not very cowboy-ish. But I thought you might like to see the purse I made for my wife.

It was my first really big project, and it had it's challenges. But in the end, it came out pretty nice and my wife loves it. So mission accomplished!

The inner framework of the purse is made from 6oz veg tan. The outer panels are 9oz. It has pockets inside for all the mysterious junk that ladies carries around. It's hand stitched with waxed cotton. It's very sturdy and should last her a long time.
