Cuctom holter makers for Mutitools
on: September 19, 2006, 09:40:10 PM
Can anyone reccomend a good custom leathermankes that makes holsters for mutitools?

Beleive it or not I want a holster for my LM Kick. The Kick comes with a teribly cheap pouch. I also tend to reach for the Kick more than the other multis around the house. Maybe becauee it usually has everything I need and I am not worried about scrtching it up.


Pics would be helpful!

IMHO if you need custom leather work, there is only one person to talk to.  He goes by the name Mcniac here on Multitool.org, and he crafts leather like you wouldn't believe.  I have some of his "SAK Sacks" an dthe braiding he does is phenominal.  Here are some pics:

You can't get better leatherwork than this, and if you do manage to find some I guarantee you will pay a whole heck of alot more for it!  Just send him measurements of the tool you want it for, and what you want on it and he'll do it.

I will email him. But I was looking for something a little more form fitted.

I have a medium size handgun collection and I really like some of the holsters more than the guns. It an art form in itself. I probably own 10 different custom holsters but none of them do multitools. I want to use someone that has experience shaping/making holsters specifically for multitools.

Well that just means that I will have to buy him a Kick then.  His fitted holsters (like the one he did for my OHT) is fantastic too.

Mcniac do you make them for Kydex? I've been looking all over the planet for one for my Swisstool  RS.
