As functional now as it was 30 years ago. Dr.C

I love those old Bianchi holsters...especially the ones made when Bianchi was really Bianchi, instead of a subsidiary of Safariland. I have a holster very similar to that one, for a S&W Model 28-2 that I got for my father back in the seventies. Suede lined. And the funny thing is, the more scarred up those old Bianchis get, the better they look to me. They tell me they've been used for something besides carrying someone's barbecue gun around.

I have a Bianchi from the early '70's for my SBH. It has a double row of stitching along the welt and a double row on the belt loop part that attaches to the body. It must be made of 14 to 16 oz hide and wet formed to the gun. I presently have a holster from a well known holster maker and it is not in the same league as my old Bianchi.

Back in the early '80's I got a Bianchi 111 Cyclone holster for my then brand new SBH. Its a crossdraw with a thumb break snap. It has many coats of snow seal cooked into it, and a nice patina going. stevemb

I like the TLA inside of it more than the holster! What caliber is it?
