ABOUT OUR PRODUCTS:
All of our items at Hellhound are works of art that are made to order and handcrafted one at a time in our workshop in Utah.
These are not mass produced or made ahead of time and each holster is carefully hand cut and crafted to fit.
Hand-Built from the Hide Up
At Hellhound, there are no assembly lines. Every piece begins as an original concept on Gavin’s workbench, meticulously drafted into heavy-duty templates to guarantee absolute precision. We hand-trace and cut every single pattern directly from premium, full-grain hides. From there, we rely on time-honored methods—hand-tooling, assembling, dyeing, and burnishing the edges until they are flawlessly smooth. Finally, the piece is set with heavy-duty solid brass hardware. Nothing leaves our Rocky Mountain workshop until it passes a rigorous inspection, ensuring it meets the uncompromising standard our family name was built on.
The Materials of Our Trade
A master craftsman is only as good as his materials, which is why we source exclusively from the oldest and most renowned tanneries in the United States. Our foundational full-grain hides come from Wickett & Craig in Pennsylvania and the legendary Horween Leather Co. in Chicago—heritage institutions that have spent over a century perfecting their sustainable, world-class tanning techniques. For our premium custom builds, we turn to American Tanning & Leather in Georgia and Pan American Leather in New York. Like us, these are multi-generational family businesses deeply committed to uncompromising quality. Paired with heavy-duty solid brass hardware manufactured in Maine, every piece we build is anchored in excellence.
Furthermore, our integrity extends to our sourcing: every exotic skin we use is strictly CITES certified and ethically procured.
Leather & Legacy
Our premium full-grain leathers are designed to age beautifully. Over time, your piece will absorb the natural oils from your hands, darkening slightly and developing a rich, custom patina that tells the story of its carry and your travels. That enduring quality comes standard. Hand-built by our family and a small team of skilled artisans in the Western Rocky Mountains, every piece is uncompromisingly American-made and promised to last a lifetime.
