Lemat holster and bowie

CraigC · Jul 7, 2018

Here's a holster I finished last fall for the Lemat and a bowie I got from Henk Neervort of the Netherlands.

Both the holster and knife (and the gun) are breathtaking. One of the nicest combos I've yet to see, GOOD work ! !

A classy holster and a classic looking knife. Good work on the holster.

Nice work! Nice bowie!

Nice work man.

Super nice! Very impressive. Do you have a pic of the LeMat unholstered?

CraigC · Jul 7, 2018

Thanks for the kind words!

Tallball · Jul 8, 2018

Very cool. It must be lots of fun to shoot.

I like the tooling on the holster. Made a few knives and sheaths but never learned to tool like that. Very nice piece.

What leather dye is that?

CraigC · Jul 8, 2018

Thanks! That one has a new border stamp by Robert Beard and I think it was my first rosette on a finished piece. I don't even remember what color I used. It might have been a weird combination of colors because I don't care for the way it turned out. It was just something I cranked out quick to be able to carry the Lemat last season.

Interesting that you're not keen on the color. I think it looks great - really rich looking.

When I made sheaths I was in California. The oil based leather dies are illegal there. So I tried a water bases product and then gave up and just conditioned the leather after that.

Looks good as always!

The Tandy professional water stain is actually very good. Works much better than the water-based powder dyes.

Wow, that really is beautiful work. I love the gun, too, especially the grips. Very nice and everything goes together well.

Very Nice Combo!

I'd like for those to be my daily carry

Armored farmer · Jul 12, 2018

J.E.B. would approve.
So do I.
Well done, as always.

Fantastic work!

I would be interested to see the back of the holster. Is the belt loop one piece with the rest of the holster, and is it designed for cross draw?

ATLDave · Jul 12, 2018

That knife, especially when sheathed, has a positively viking look to it.

That holster is simply amazing as is the coffin-handle bowie and sheath. I check your posts daily to get my morning dose of jealous. :thumbup:

I need to keep reminding myself not to break the 10th commandment.

CraigC · Jul 12, 2018

Don't have any pics of the back side. It is a crossdraw and the belt loop is stitched on.

Iggy · Jul 13, 2018

That outfit is fine as frog's hair.. Well done.

The Evangelist Cowboy · Jul 14, 2018

I need my horse and that combo and I'd be set for life... Great job Craigc
