looking for a leatherworker in central Texas - 06/30/15 09:35 PM

I recently got my alligator back from the tannery and am looking to get a scabbard made for my Henry big boy along with a few smaller items like wallets, knife sheath etc. I really don't want to ship it anywhere. I am having trouble finding someone in the central Texas area that can do this type of work. I am looking for suggestions. Any help would be greatly appreciated!! I apologize if this is in the wrong forum, was unsure as to where it should go. Attached is a pic of a scabbard I found online that is exactly the style I am looking for, along with the gun laying on the area I want it made from and an overall pic of the hide with my 6 year old laying next to it for size comparison. Thanks, John

Paul Long is in Kerrville. He does sheaths and leatherwork for some of the top knifemakers in the country. Hes also a heck of a great guy and is on most of the knife forums frequently helping folks out.
