That is some very nice work. I especially like how you have sculpted the holster loop and jockstrap; very attractive.

Best regards.

I think it needs a more dignified name.

Very nice work and I like your backdrop for the photos too.

How many total hours do you estimate into that rig?

Just curious...

I did not pick the Name,It makes sense though I would say from start to finish I have about 10 Hours into it.It takes about a Week though with drying times,caseing,etc.

I think they should be called thong holster. That jock don't look like it would hold much.

Let me add, very nice work.

I am the proud owner of that fine piece of leather, and believe me it looks better here in my hands, than it does in the pictures.
As poster #4 noted, I will surely be back for more.

What you can not see in the pictures, because of the Texas jockstrap, is the beautiful carving on the holster body, but believe me; this piece of leather is FINE !

It is a "perfect fit" in all ways, for an old .357 Magnum,(Pre-27) !

Thanks 05CarbonDRZ
