Thanks and agree, if only we knew and had the means way back when.
All my current holsters are kydex for Glock 9mm's and a Wilderness ankle rig for the S&W 640 series.
At one time (circa 1997), I had a nice Kramer horsehide rig with belt, holster and mag pouch for the Glock 26/27. For reasons (dumbassery...) I honestly don't recall, sold the rig.
Anyway, the Model 10, which will eventually be at least two 4 inch Model 10's, will get a leather holster.
Most likely it will actually be two holsters - IWB and OWB.
I'm thinking Milt Sparks, but just started looking and wide open to suggestions.
Your custom Sokol 3" Model 10 project, along with a few others here at p-f, inspired me to make this purchase and set up a dedicated "rig" for same.
Once I get a pair of standard 4 inch M10's good to go, my intent is to get a second pair, preferably with 4 inch heavy barrels (not going to spend the money on factory 3 inch guns).
That second pair will then go to Mr. Sokol for the 3 inch treatment.
