Well Im not really sure I'm happy with the company or not. I ordered their Sting-Ray belt holster for my wife off of eBay and thought it was a great holster. So, I decided to order a Nano IWB holster straight from blade-tech and their production time is 2 weeks for non-standard items. Well the Nano is a standard item which I take is in stock and ready for shipping. I ordered on 10/5/09 and checked the status on their website everyday(kinda excited about this holster) and saw that it was still processing. Today I call them and asked the status of my order, and the lady said it hadn't shipped but will ship it out today. No big deal...right? Well her voice almost sounded as if they forgot/lost my order and the conversation was over quickly(30 seconds long at most)! Overall I'm getting a new holster but seems like they forgot my order. I know they are a respected company but that seems weird to me that a standard item would take this long to ship and it might not have if I didn't call. Anyways, hope I like the holster when I get it!!

The best kydex holster I've ever bought was a Ky-Tac Superhooper for my G34. It's smoother than anything I've ever drawn from, any plastic, kydex, leather or combo. I waited 4 months for a holster. The guy won't answer calls or return e-mails. He only takes orders snail mail, and there is no web site purchase option.

There are worse companies out there. Be patient. I have lots of gear from them. They will not stiff you.

the best way to order blade-tech is a stocking dealer. otherwise it can be awhile from the company directly.
Kytac is great stuff..and Dave is a good guy, I have heard it takes him awhile sometimes too. He was from Colorado, before moving to his current location.
Comptac is good stuff too.
