Even though this is not a knife, I thought that many would enjoy the artistry of this, plus the fact that it was made by a knife collector.I have a very good customer(who is a friend as well)that ran across my work on a cowboy action shooting forum.His name is Terry Morin,and he is a self taught gun rig and holster maker, a hobby he picked up after retirement from the corporate world.Even though I don't own any six shooters:D, I was impressed with his artistry and craftsmanship, and mentioned to him that I would like a piece of his work in my collection of stuff, and suggested a trade. After quickly agreeing, and 100 hours of work later, here is the results.
I felt the only way to properly show this in all of it's magnificent glory was to have a pro shoot it, so of to Chuck Ward it went, who BTW did a fantastic job as well,:thumbup::thumbup: even though it is not what he normally sees in his studio!

Now, the "only" thing you have to do is find a pair of six-shooters, like COlt SIngle Action Army's, to go with this rig: engraved, s.s. or nickled, with gold inserts, an so forth.
 
Thanks guys! For someone who just took up leatherwork 4 years ago, Terry is an extremely talanted individual!
 
Thank you John . I,m so glad you like it. I have to admit I got the best of the deal. The items he has made for me are outstanding in every way. Thanks again and I will be collecting lots more of your work. KT
