Customer feedback describes the holster as handy and useful for keeping tools accessible, including for people who prefer not to wear a pouch. Opinions are mixed on durability, fit and ease of use, with reports ranging from sturdy construction and snug square fit to early breakage and incompatibility with some modern squares. That makes checking tool fit especially relevant despite the listing's broad compatibility claims. Aggregate ratings are mixed overall, so they do not establish a consistent experience.
