Trade tools

From eyelet setting equipment to molds and thermoplastic vacuum forming machinery, we’ll help you kickstart your craft.

One of the things we love most about this industry is that it’s not elitist; there’s no steep or expensive barrier to entry. What separates the wheat from the chaff around here is hard work and effort—the difference between a remarkably efficient and exciting new holster isn’t simply a question of holster making tools, thermoforming tools, or holster hardware used; it’s mostly dependent on creative ingenuity and long hours in the shop using those holster tools to get it just right. So while we certainly offer innovations and resources like holster foam and Kydex vacuum forming tools, we recognize that the craft is so much more than the sum of its parts.

Since we first opened up shop over 40 years and three generations ago, much has changed—we started out as a fastener distributor but once we caught wind of the rapidly-expanding world of holster making tools and thermoforming tools, we simply adapted to better match the needs of the customers. Now, we’re proud to be regarded as one of the nation’s leading hubs for holster hardware, holster foam, and general holster tools as well as more sophisticated techniques like Kydex vacuum forming.
