Pocket Holster Help

I'm considering a few pocket holsters for my Taurus 85CH, and would like a little input.

Have any of you guys used any of the following with positive or negative results?

BTW, I'm also open to other suggestions, but would like to keep it in the $30 range...

I'm considering the following:

1. Desantis Nemesis

2. Galco Pocket Protector

3. Safariland Model 25

I decided to go with the Desantis Nemesis. BTW, it was $29 shipped from Desantis if anybody cares...

I ruled out the Safariland 25 because it's not ambidextrous. If the Desantis doesn't work for me, I'll give the Galco Pocket Protector a try.

Haven't used any of the above, but I do use the Don Hume pocket holster, as well as a similarly cut pocket holster from PCS

Robert Mika. $18.95 to your door. I use one for my S&W 642 and one for my PM9. Not beautiful, but they work great. Stays in the pocket when you draw.

Mika's. Round cut of you wear jeans or slacks, square if you like shorts and cargo pants.

I use a Don Hume. Great holster and I believe falls under your $30 top end.

Don Hume is probably the best value in a leather pocket holster...the equally impressive PCS French Curve is more money, and I'm not sure why...I have a Nemesis which I paid $19.00 for, but nothing does a handgun good like real leather.

I use a Fist K5 kydex pocket holster with my P9. Thin, lightweight, and fits both the gun and my pocket perfectly.
