I know he used python on his LP and that elaborate black leather one with the studs/conchos/etc. on his White Original Sin. What about his black stringthrough?

Happened to see this ad on page 165 of the new GW and the same pic is on there site here. I believe the strap on the left is for the Black Jack:

That's something i've never seen discussed, i'd be guessing to who made them. The leather ones with the studs etc they could of been made by the same people who made Randy's leather stage jackets / vests. As they are very much in the same style.
