Default A Classy Touch

We have many talented holster makers on this forum.

Most have their own trademark that they emboss in the leather to identify their holsters. One of my favorite features of the Heiser Saddlery holsters is their enameled HHH fancy snap button. I was wondering if any of our holster makers have ever thought about using a custom feature like this for that "Classy Touch"? Of course, I have no idea what something like this would cost to make (or who makes them), and since production numbers would be no where near what Heiser's were, it may be cost prohibitive on a small scale.

You are correct. Snaps can be had with stamped logos or trade names, enameled, and in various colors. But the costs involved in design and die-making are prohibitive for all but the largest volume holster makers.
