How to explain Jerry's work Part One

[trigger643]

I got home today to my wonderful bride and my HK holster back from lugerholsterrepairer. She'd opened the box, and said to me as I was examining the holster, "I don't see that he restitched anything, and he charged you $50.00 to boot."

I pointed out the original stitching. I pointed out where it had been replaced. "How can you tell?" she asked.

"Yes. That Jerry. What a huckster. Does these repairs, like restitching the flap and you can't even tell. But I'm kind of embarrassed not to send him a check. It would be admitting I couldn't tell the difference between 70 year old stitching and new stitching. The other members of my forum would think I was a fool. So I'll just pay him and keep my reputation."

Shame on you Jerry for doing such fine work. If I can't tell it's been restitched, my wife can't tell it's been restitched, then who will ever know that the seem was bad except you and me, and now the proof is gone! It might as well have never been coming apart in the first place.

Merry Christmas.
