The Blade-Tech IWB is decent. I used a one for a couple years with my 1911, more for IDPA than carry. I went to a Comp-Tac 'cause the belt attachments fore & aft of the holster make it more stable and thinner. But for $20, heck, I was happy paying $40 for mine.

It seems to be fine. For $20.00 it seems to be just the thing to have.

My ONLY complaint is that it is THICK - takes up a lot of room inside my waistband - more than I thought it would.

Good looking holster! I've bought several gun related items including holsters off ebay and I've had very good luck. Only got "burnt" once, a set of wood grips for a colt that looked a lot better in the picture than in reality. I figured live and learn.

Before E-Bay for Don Hume items, check Gunner's Alley. Sometimes it's cheaper than the E-Bat person will let the item go for.

Yep - I've managed to sneak in just under the Gunner's Alley price on my ebay holsters. This is my fourth Don Hume holster. I love 'em. 2 IWB's and 2 JIT's.

The clip on the Don Hume IWB's is very strong and durable.

JIT is a model of Holster made by Don Hume. Th acronym stands for Just In Time.

:lol: I'm glad to hear that it doesn't refer to any body parts or clothing parts. I was busting my brain trying to think of body parts or clothing parts that started with J.

Though the E-bay guy is gauranteed to have it in stock I guess.

Placed my order, waited 3-4 days for the PayPal confirmation of funds transfer, waited another 1-2 days to get an e-mail from Gunner's Alley saying they were out of stock and it would be 3-5 WEEKS to get them from DonHume. Arrgghhh!!! I called and Brad was helpful. I'm getting the snap version they had in stock instead of the clip on version I ordered. it SHOULD be here by Saturday

To think of all those days wasted checking the mailbox :-)
