Belt Loop Hook Quandary.

[admin]

Howdy, going to be a bit verbose here. This subject has been very bothersome the last few months. There was a few days where I didn’t even have a beer! 

Looking for a belt loop hook (dangler) that would accomodate wider belt loops as on Dickies work pants. Have a bit of trouble even finding products to consider, maybe I’m using the wrong term? Did find some stuff but they are either designed for jeans or carry too low.

Look. The loop is too fat for the Pickpocket!  It works fine on my pocket but I have enough stuff clipped to pockets. Might also work fine on jeans but I don’t own any.

This is the only thing I could find which works. Don’t like using a carabiner, would prefer a simple hook. Like an S hook, found some round steel ones at work, but too fat and small. It carries too low, need something a lil bit wider on the top which ideally would have half the dangle space.

Tried searching for brass key hook. Half the stuff is actual key holders that attach to a wall. I am not carrying one of those on my belt! The kawatako and similar are nice looking but probably just as long as the carabiner here. Fish hook type ones look painful and don’t like all the winding around some have.

Suggestions, recommendations or flames are welcome. Wondering how pliable brass is and where I can find some stock thin enough to mess with at this point. Been seen frequenting the DIY section more than I should.
