Snaps, where to buy

I have some ideas for a multi tool sheath design that would use snaps.

I have been searching the internet but I seem to only find general purpose snaps with colors and jewels and such.

The snap on my Surge sheath is big, has a a through hole in the "top" (I don't know the proper terminology), seems fairly low profile and seems rugged.

Where can I buy rugged snaps?

Check Tandy Leather as well.

Sailrite.com also has them in stainless and has the screw-on posts if you ever need them.

Thanks for the info folks.

Sailrite has only two snaps in stainless steel, DOT and SnapRite. Is there any preference between these options?

I have not found any snaps similar to my LM sheath, large post with a hole in the upper snap. It grips well, is not hard to fasten / unfasten. Any thoughts if and where this style snap can be purchased?
