I designed and made this one yesterday. Fully lined, full grain leather, double stitched, good for a 2 1/2" belt. The pistol is a Springfield, SS 1911A1.
There is right at 500 stitches in this thing and my hands feel like hell this morning! That is why they made coffee and aspirin.

Looks good 
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

“Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.” George Orwell, English novelist, essayist, and critic, 1903-1950
Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
C. S. Lewis
