That's very generous of you, TW. Gracias, amigo.

Skeeter Lewis

This is a copy of Jesse James's holster in the St. Joseph Museum. I magnified a color photo of it to full size and tried to duplicate it. The tooling is not done with a swivel knife. it's a 'tear-away' technique much used at the time. I used a freehand stitch groover.

Johnny McCrae

Absolutely beautiful! I love the carving. You have a very steady hand.

Many thanks for sharing this with us.

That's beautiful, Skeet! I really like seeing your work. Incised designs are harder than they look. Great job, there.

...and a ram's head holster, from PI page 81, adapted for a Peacemaker.

Beautiful work again, Skeet. Love those chaps. That holster looks like it came right out of the old west. 8)
