CKK Industries brings you three distinct holster styles, now available at HolsterSmith.com. These new leather holster making kits cover the iconic 1911 platform across multiple barrel lengths, giving you everything needed to create professional-grade EDC gear with your own hands.
Fresh Stock: Three Proven Holster Styles
Pancake Style Holster Kit
The classic pancake design delivers clean lines and reliable function for your 1911 (available in 3.00" and 4.00" models). This two-piece construction gives you quick access while maintaining secure retention. The sweat guard protects your firearm from moisture, and the streamlined profile rides comfortably on your belt. Built with premium 8-9oz American leather, available in your choice of espresso or black finish.
Complete kit includes: Pre-cut leather pieces (espresso or black), wax thread bundles, threading needles, sandpaper, and 6-inch burnishing tool.
Thumb Break Style Holster Kit
When you need extra retention without sacrificing draw speed, the thumb break design delivers both. The integrated thumb break adds a retention point that secures your firearm while allowing smooth, fast access when needed. Pre-assembled Durable black snaps save you time during assembly. This versatile kit accommodates multiple 1911 barrel lengths (available in 3.00" RH and 4.00" LH/RH, 4.25" LH/RH, and 5.00" RH models), making it ideal for craftsmen who work with multiple 1911 variants. Available in espresso or black leather.
Complete kit includes: Pre-cut leather pieces with snaps (espresso or black), wax thread bundles, threading needles, sandpaper, and 6-inch burnishing tool.
Mini Slide Style Holster Kit
The mini slide design takes the proven pancake construction and strips away excess material for a minimalist approach. Built specifically for the 1911 (see website for multiple barrel lengths), the exposed barrel reduces weight and increases versatility. The open-bottom design eliminates bulk while maintaining secure retention and enabling a smooth draw stroke. Perfect for craftsmen who appreciate clean, functional design without unnecessary complexity. Available in espresso or black leather.
Complete kit includes: Pre-cut leather pieces (espresso or black), wax thread bundles, threading needles, sandpaper, and 6-inch burnishing tool.
Built for Craftsmen
Each kit uses premium 8-9oz leather sourced and manufactured in the USA. The included tools – sandpaper, threading needles, waxed thread, and burnishing tool – give you everything needed for a professional finish. Whether you're expanding your holster-making business or crafting gear for personal use, these kits deliver the materials and precision you expect.
All three styles accommodate belts up to 1.50 inches and feature right-hand carry orientation. The pre-cut leather pieces ensure proper fit and function while letting you focus on the craftsmanship that makes each holster unique.
