I have only seen these in pictures so I'm hoping I did it justice.

What do you all think?

Looks great, the only thing I can see that you could change is the angle of the belt loop. On my Thad Rybca Rhodesian Holster the belt loop is straight. Other than that you did a great job, I would be

I was worried about the angle, but from what I looked at it was hard to tell some looked like a strait drop and some looked like they had a cant. I my have to take you up on getting a closer look

I my have to take you up on getting a closer look at your holster, after I made this one I really like the style.

I'll PM you once I get back from the post office.

No problem, I've got another style, a Bruce Nelson that I would like to send you also and see if you can maybe make one like it also. I would like a Rhodesian in smooth leather with a little more higher ride and to fit a 1.5" gun belt. Just PM me and if you want I'll send them out to you for you to look at.
