Learn what tools fit the Occidental Leather Concrete Hook holster, how to attach it to your belt, and tips for daily concrete work.
Quick answer
The Leather Concrete Hook is designed to carry edgers and other concrete tools with larger handles, attaching securely to belts up to 3 inches wide.
Why the Leather Concrete Hook is purpose-built for concrete work
Concrete finishing tools like edgers and groovers have thicker, heavier handles than standard carpentry tools. A regular tool loop often won't hold them securely. The Occidental Leather Concrete Hook solves this with a custom metal hook that grips larger handles, keeping your tool within reach without swinging or falling off.
Trade-offs to consider
Because the hook is metal and the holder is leather, it adds some weight to your belt. It's also specialized — you won't use it for framing hammers or tape measures. If you carry multiple concrete tools, you may need more than one hook.
Frequently asked questions
- What tools fit in the Leather Concrete Hook?
- Edgers, groovers, and other concrete finishing tools with larger handles. The custom metal hook is sized to grip these thicker handles securely. Smaller tools like margin trowels may not fit well. Check your tool's handle diameter before buying; the hook is best for larger handles.
- How do I attach the Leather Concrete Hook to my belt?
- The hook uses a tunnel loop design that fits belts up to 3 inches wide. Simply slide it onto your belt before putting the belt on, or thread your belt through the loop. It stays in place without extra hardware.
- Can I use the Leather Concrete Hook for non-concrete tools?
- Yes, as long as the tool has a large enough handle for the hook to grip. For example, a heavy pry bar or a framing hammer with a large grip might work. However, it's optimized for concrete edgers and similar tools. Test the fit before relying on it for a different tool.
- Is the Leather Concrete Hook made in the USA?
- Yes, it is made in the USA, like most Occidental Leather products. This ensures durable leather and metal construction that can handle daily job site use.
- What is the price of the Leather Concrete Hook?
- The catalog price is USD 16.75, with a comparison price of USD 22.95. It's an affordable addition to your tool carrying system.
