Default HELL BENT FOR LEATHER

That's me. I'm a little obsessed with classic leather. Here are
a few of my favorites, left to right:

Lawrence carved & laced model 32, with S&W model 10,
on a Lawrence cartridge belt, with a Bear knife.

Myres Tom Threepersons (Model 614) with S&W model 27, on
a Haugen belt. Same knife.

Heiser carved & laced model 728 holding my 1911 Colt Gold Cup.

Seventrees combat speed scabbard with "dog ear" hosting my
S&W Model 19.

Chic Gaylord's combat speed scabbard with "dog ear" made
for an N Frame, so my model 29 is a perfect fit.

I bet when you take your wife out for a Sunday drive in the country, and stop at a intersection, cows in surrounding pastures recognize you and run for their lives.

How about a photo of all your holsters together?

That would be a major undertaking and they probably wouldn't
all fit into one photo. I have shown most of them on this forum
at one time or another, and most of them are in my manual
"Renowned Gun Leather". The Gaylord Speed Scabbord, on
the left in the photos, was not in the first printing, but they are
all gone, so I will put it in the 2nd printing. Thanks for liking
the post.

PS cows, and horses too, tremble when
they see me coming.

Thanks for sharing your holsters, as well as your knowledge of good leather. It's helped me with my searches as I travel the lower 48. I'm keeping an eye out for a carved Tom Threepersons for a 1911, 4" K Frame, and unknown N Frame.....that decision will be made in a couple weeks.

Watch ebay and Gunbroker too. I've found a few on the auction
sites. And also our own classifieds here on the forum. Good luck!

Yes Sir, will do. I did luck into a couple of oldish Bucheimer holsters today on my trip back from Memphis. One holds my model 10, the other holds the 442-1 that I couldn't resist today. I'll post some pics later once I give them a good once over, to include detailing my new bug.
