Some Recent Leather Work

[gjohnsoniv]

I haven't done one of these in a while so I've decided to show off some recent pieces.

[Smokin45]

Nice work!

[gjohnsoniv]

The Glock 19 pouch and MP5 will probably be in the classifieds later, they were pattern testers but I made myself a double set afterwards. 

The first ar mag pouch is my third pattern and attachment style plus a thumb index point. Revision 2 will likely have a full reinforcement lip to strengthen the opening.

Beautiful work......a true craftsman.

Dig the cigar holster.

It's crush resistant, ran it over with my car to prove it.

The revolver pieces are very nice. If I didn't  already have one of yours for my 686 I'd be after one of those.

It looks better without the blue gun but the picture does not do the holster justice. He does have some mad skills. Thanks again GJ.

Some more.  I did a slight redesign on one of my AR magazine pouches.  The main modification was just adding a reinforcement lip around the index notch to prevent collapse, and widening said notch slightly.  The other modification was adding in semi hidden tunnels for running shock cord for bungee retention.

Did this last night. Herringbone 8 thong braided horse lead. I really don't like the two ferrules I used but they were what I had on hand. Need to source something better.

Looks great to me. Also looks like you could easily do this same work to make a key chain. Just another item you could add to your arsenal of designs.

[gjohnsoniv]

Most definitely on the key chain. I have to say this was a challenge but I've never done it before so that's part of it. The thought of moving DOWN in size is scary lol. Outside of the horse world I'm not sure where I'll use it though, well maybe on some bag handles or something. Maybe I'll do some ar mag pulls for the lulz.

[gjohnsoniv]

Couple new recent projects.

Ar and triple pistol pouch for a Seal friend of mine

Same ar mag pouch as above but with a G17 holster

Ambi tomahawk sheath and mount for PALS

Scout sheath for PALS

Assorted colors on more AR pouches

G19 and MP5

[DaveTN]

Excellent work! 

 

[Grand Torino]

Man that's some right purdy stuff.

[peejman]

Nice!  What kind of tomahawk is that and how complicated is the sheath?

It was a custom, that's all I know. There wasn't even a makers mark on it.  Not that complicated of sheath, actually fairly simple.

Where do you source your leather? I am out of leather right now, so I need to get some ordered in along with some supplies. I intend to get this thing off the ground this coming year.

Tandy, honestly. I've gotten it from some other sources but I like being able to see the piece before I buy it. Outside of that any places that "name brand" leather like Herman Oak, Wicket and Craig, etc should be good to go.
