This one is from last winter and the pattern is a composite of Al Stholman, another deceased leather crafter, and me that I assembled. It is made from 8-9 ounce Herman's Oak, lined, and hand stitched. It is right cross draw which makes it handy to wear in my jeep while traveling the boondocks. It has a wrangler stuck in it but works equally well with a single six or rough rider.
This one is made a little earlier and I gave it to my son-in-law to carry his rough rider in. Same leather and stitching method but no lining and one of the few I have dyed. The inside was sanded down very smooth and finish applied after form fitting to reduce wear marks even it is just an RR being carried.
These are the first holsters I have made after around a 20 hiatus from leather working. I was very rusty in the tooling department with the first and with some rust left on the second.
