"Amazing holster and worth the premium price. The fit and finish is like no kydex product out there and the Tek Mount mini system makes attachment and adjustment a breeze. Customization options are particularly great for a lefty like me."
— Nicolas S. (5/5)
"Searched for a holster that would work with my current set up and this is one of the few that would. Ordering was easy and the options made it exactly what I wanted but also left it open for future adjustments. Once I received it the quality was great, as is the fit with no rattle or shake which combined with an intuitive release system makes for a great product. I’d get one for each of mine if they expand their product line in the future."

"I’m extremely happy and with my new Blade Tech Valor! I’ve been using a Safariland holster on duty for decades and was nervous to switch to a new holster system fearing I’d have to completely retrain my draw stroke but I’ve actually found that the Valor is smoother and has less play in it than my Safariland. The Tech Mount allows you to position the holder with the exact amount of cant to make your draw comfortable and efficient and I was really impressed by how secure the whole system is on my belt. I had a friend yank on it to test it and it’s rock solid. I also love the how quickly I can swap out holsters if I want to run another handgun. Less importantly but still notable: the holster looks absolutely incredible and I’ve had several people at the range and my local shop ask me about it. I highly recommend the Blade Tech Valor!"

"I was already impressed by the reviews on this holster, but once it showed up at my door I was sold. The versatility is what really won me over — it solves the headache of needing different holsters for essentially the same Glock platform (45, 17, 19, 47) just because of light or optic setups. I’d recommend it to anyone, whether you’re just running drills at the range or using it in a professional role like security or law enforcement. My only suggestion: grab the OTW Mod Button for faster release and smoother access. Other than that, it’s a solid product all around."
— Mark H. (4/5)
"I’ve been using this holster for about a month now, and I must say, the quality is exceptional. The setup and features are, in my opinion, better than Safari land offers. There’s little to no wiggle room."
— Brennan W. (5/5)
"The retention is amazing, the tek mount system that allows me to rotate the angle of draw is a huge plus and it feels extremely durable and high quality. It’s hard to find a good holster that can fit most light options. I use a TLR7 and the holster fits it just fine. I’m gonna switch everything to tek mount because of this holster. Safariland used to be my go to, but now I can use any of the light options I have instead of being limited. And this holster just feels way better quality than Safariland. It’s easy to take off or change the accessories on the holster. Huge win for Bladetech."
— William W. (5/5)
"As a longtime Safariland customer I decided to try the new BladeTech Valor and wow! Outstanding customer service, received it within about a week and it is very impressive. Easy to holster than Safariland… the triple retention system is very easy to master and my draw feels faster than it did in my Safariland. LE User."
— Nic C. (5/5)
"Great holster, finish is great and the retention system is very intuitive. Easy to quick release / swap and nice to be able to use different angles dependent on seated or standing position. So far no visible wear, time will tell on this :) 10/10, will probably buy another"
— Frederik M. (5/5)
"The build quality of this holster is excellent, and Blade Tech’s disc system is probably the best QD setup on the market. The only reasons it is not five stars are the thumb release and the tightness of the holster. The release is an easy fix with an OT nub mod. It would be an easy fix on the front end already have something similar to it installed, making the thumb release taller and wider. In terms of fitment, it secures the firearm very well, but I would like to see it just a little looser. The draw is just a little slow due to this."
— Rocky B. (4/5)
"Holster feels sturdy and very well made. Button is easy to operate, I would recommend the nub mod though it makes the holster so much better. And the tek mount disc is so nice."
