VERY well done. I especially like that he has gone his own way with styling yet every element has a purpose; and that he has mounted the rear tunnel loop next to the fold and well away from the slotted wing. Excellent.

In this day and age ,most of the younger fellows use plastic Kydex types. I am 64 and like leather it is more comfortable for me. The boxy Kydex types catch on everthing,I have had them tear the belt loops off my blue jeans. Guns and leather fit better and have less wear on finishs. Leather is a art,warm and soft ,it has soul and class. My son enjoys working with leather and it flows from his heart. I used the holster and did not even notice it and the SW M64 4" is no light weight pistol.

Well, I'll bet you are proud of your son. What a great gift!! You cannot buy that sort of gift. He seems to be pretty talented. Good job.

Best Regards, Les
