I've had Sam make a Colt 45 holster and belt for my father about 20 yrs ago. It's one of his priced possesions. It will be mine after he passes, then my son's after I pass. Thank you Sam. You're a craftsman, and your excellence is admired greatly.

[@andrewsleather1079]

Thank you! That is great to hear the holster and belt will stay in your family.

Hey Sam, I am looking to move into making some exotic skin holsters. Can you do a video on working with those skins making holsters and the places you purchase these skins. There really is not much in the way of exotic skin holster making available on RUclips. I usually learn by spending a lot of time in the school of hard knocks but mostly considering the cost I would really prefer not having to go through that school this time if I could find a better way. I have a particular need to fulfill soon to work with alligator if you have any tips? I have been a fan of your videos for years. It is really great to see someone lend a helping hand these days to teach others. You sure have helped me....Thank you!

[@andrewsleather1079]

The alligator works just like cowhide as far as cutting and assembling the holster. One of the best sources is Henry at the Ostrichmarket.com. Tell him I sent you.

@@andrewsleather1079 Thank you very much for your reply. Do you tuck the edges under or just use edge dressing on them as you do leather?

[@andrewsleather1079]

@@TPMAKHOME Yes I use the edge dressing

[@HELLEKSONART]

Pretty

[@hypocrnsnk]

Why are you giving out your manufacturing process?

[@hunter_abc_3235]

I'm pretty sure it's not that hard to figure out just search how they make leather veneer and boom
