John also makes a couple different height belt loops that’ll adjust the ride quite a bit. I’ve overcome the knuckle on belt issue with his longer ones. They’re (higher rise) what I use daily and the holster still conceals better than anything else I’ve ever tried. FWIW.

They almost certainly require him to tool up in a specific manner, which will often be dictated by the firearm model.
Batching is the only way that winds up making sense in a small shop.
I gotta say, I'm really happy with mine. I have the same issue with belt threading and the fixed loops, but it's worth the hassle.

I have to say the snaps are quite difficult to use with my belt. I'm using a Megingjörð belt and it's very difficult to snap closed, and half the time it's only partially closed. The single thickness portion of the belt is no issue to snap closed and it closes perfectly fine without a belt. I will have to try another belt and see if it works better. Maybe the Arcteryx Conveyor belt would be the ticket.
That's possible, but if you actually look at the holster closely you can see the amount of time it would take to do one of these. Ralston has pieces of 1/8th inch leather that are tapered and fitted to each other to make a uniform 3/4" thickness. It's truly a work of art. I'll see if I can take a decent photo.
Not sure if it's just a SKU-type number or the number of holsters made, but next to the TLG stamp, it's got the number 295 on it.

That’s it’s # made, you are #295.

Lucky #300 from his Shot Show batch. Glock 17 w/rough out front panel. I’ll try to post pics soon enough.
Here are a few pics of my SME showing the wedge and overall design.
