clear leather 

The act of drawing a firearm, particularly a handgun. This comes from the fact that for many years, holsters, particularly those used by the police, were made of leather. Thus, if the officer's handgun came completely out of the holster, he "cleared leather."

That stupid perp wouldn't put down the knife, so I had to clear leather. That got his attention.
