I've noticed that holsters that have been "handboned" seem to always be more expensive. Exactly what is that process?? Does it affect function or is it just an appearance thing?

A process of hand forming a wet leather holster to the exact contours of the gun. It requires a certain 'touch' to know exactly when the leather will form and stay formed to the required shape--to much working of leather and the surface of the leather will burnish and discolor or not accept the final color (DYE) as readily.

with a pistol replica in a new holster,the maker will take some object,such as deer antler ect. and use it to rob the holster to the contours of the pistol. jwr
