I have been aware of Kirkpatrick's Leather Company for at least 20 years. When I wanted a quality, custom holster and belt rig for my Ruger Blackhawk 357 magnum I researched for several months online, looking at dozens of leather work companies. My search kept bringing me back to Kirkpatrick's. I was not disappointed in their product's quality when it came in the mail just short of three weeks after ordering it. It is perfectly sized to my waist and fits my pistol like a glove. It is a beautiful work of art which I will someday pass on to one of my children. I would order from them again.

I ordered the US Marshal holster for a set of Ruger 357 mag New Vaquero Pistols and the Deputy Marshal holster for a Colt Double Eagle 45. The holsters were hand tooled and the workmanship was excellent. The holsters look beautiful and fit perfectly. This was money well spent. I would highly recommend this company for any leather gear you would need.

Worth the wait

Yeah, it was a little long to wait for my holster, but man, I’m impressed. The fit and craftsmanship is top tier. Stitching is precise and even. The quality of the leather and the finish is amazing. And it fits my pistol perfectly. Nicely done folks!

2020 holster for my new Colt Python 4.25"

Purchased a 2020 holster for my new Colt Python 4.25" from overstock. Arrived quickly with excellent quality. Fits tight, but I'm working on that, keeping gun in plastic bag to stretch leather to fit gun a little looser. Want to shoot this in IDPA matches. This holster holds the revolver a little lower on belt than a lot of other makers.

When I got the belt in the mail

When I got the belt in the mail, it looked beautiful however, only a day later, I noticed the leather was separating in the sides of the belt behind where it buckles. That was very disappointing for the money I paid for it. I thought this would last me years. It it doesnt appear it will.

Big Jake western rig

Ordered the Big Jake western rig, and had ordered what I thought was the right size and Rachel Kirkpatrick informed me that the size seemed small, so remeasured and got the right size, they got it done faster than expected and the quality and fit is great, definitely the nicest holster I own and probably will ever own unless I get another one from them which is very likely. Great customer service and great craftsmanship!

Needed a unique gift

We wanted a unique gift for a friend in TX. After some research online, we found Kirkpatrick… online ordering was easy, quality and reputation gave us confidence. Online ordering system was easy and 7 weeks later our friend was ecstatic to get his custom rifle sling! Highly recommend
