Jack,

You may be thinking of my holster. It was made by Ryan Grizzle of http://www.rgrizzleleather.com. I cannot speak highly enough of them. I had seen the other carved holsters on his website and asked him to do one for me. A woman named Kay does the carvings and I had her do a tree design similar to the one Ryan made for his father, but you can also send in a design. I was thinking about maybe doing my dogs on one or the Rohrbaugh crest would look sharp. I guess some holsters are easier to carve than others depending on their size. I also have the IWB southern sidekick and they said there really isn't enough room on the holster to do any detailed carvings but the pocket holster worked well. He was very reasonable and the carving only added about $40 or $50 to the price of the holster so it was right around $110 total shipped to me. Hope this helps and here are some pics:
