My 12 year old son Ethan and I recently finished this holster for him. It is my No.5 model scaled to fit my old Bearcat. I did the cutting and lacing. Ethan did the stamping, dyed the leather, glued the lining and did the stitching. He is almost as proud of the holster as I am of him!  |

Great Work Ethan! ;D
I have a feeling he will treasure that holster for many years to come. I really love the contrasting stitching.
Thanks for sharing that.

I have a question?, did you use a laceing fid for the "holes" you used for the lace, I've ben an amatuer leather crafter for years and wanted to try to lace a holster but just didn't have the nerve to try the laceing after all the time it took tooling,
Thanks for your time,
