Recommend a (leather) holster maker?

The mega-list of holster makers that we have on this forum is a great resource. But it's also a bit overwhelming. There are clearly plenty of good, high quality holster makers out there. It would be useful for me and others, I believe, to hear from those who have had particularly good buying experiences when purchasing from some of the, perhaps, less well known but talented and meticulous leather holster makers. Stated differently, I'd like to buy a few holsters from someone who makes very high quality holsters, but may not be as well known as some of "the usual suspects" (Sparks, Rosen, DelFatti, etc.). Basically, I'd like to support (with my $) a good, up-and-coming or perhaps simply underappreciated/lower-profile leather holster maker. Do you have any particular recommendations?

I think you will get the best advice by telling the members here: what gun? how will you carry? how much is your budget? will you be getting a belt and accessories too? want exotics? and how long are you willing to wait?

I like DM Bullard... he has made 3 for me and I am happy with each one. David does excellent work and only a 30 day turnaround...I ordered a pocket holster for my NAA on 4/16 and I got the confirm that it shipped today.... great guy...been to his shop and he took the time to show me what I really needed....Robbie

I recommend Desbien's Gunleather.

Rhome is a class act; easy to work with, not a long lead time and prices are fair. He crafted a IWB #4 for my G27 to my specifications and it is a great holster.
