Bisley Joe Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 Thinking about getting back into making leather stuff, like holsters. Is there a need for more leather? I don't want to mass produce stuff, but instead lean more towards unique creations. My favorite here is the holster I made for an authentic Merwin & Hulbert owned by a collector, along with a matching sheath for a bowie knife he has. Here are a few things I've made. What do y'all think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trailrider #896 Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 Beautiful work! Whether to go back to it again depends on ho much time you are willing to spend and whether you really expect to make money at it. (Depends on how much customers are willing to pay for such great work.) Best of luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major BS Walker Regulator Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 Don't let talent like that go to waste. You should also try making competition holsters as well as traditional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Navy Six Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 There is ALWAYS a need for nice new leather. I also like your studded Slim Jims, that would be something I'd go for. I spend a lot of time looking at leather maker sites searching for something a bit different, yet traditional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
