I think I speak for several of us when I say we could have happily gone the rest of our lives without knowing that.

stay safe.

They keep making this eternal vigilance thing harder and harder.  Protecting the 2nd amendment is like playing PACMAN - there's no pause button so you can go to the bathroom.

Just found this. They carry seconds from Horwith. Horwith only seems to do large orders.

As you've seen, horsehide is near impossible to find. I started using  it for the inner layer of a knife sheath design I woked out some years ago. Started making holsters out of it. I love the stuff. Gives a kydex fit w/o the plastic-y feel.

Don't know. Never made one to sell. I've got two, son has one, daughter another, yougest boy is asking for one..  I'm Friends with one of the "Elders" over on THR & he's given me insights to some of the holster makers from the 50's & 60's so I keep experimenting. .
