Testimonials were sent in by outdoor writers, professional fishermen, and fishing celebrities that use HoldZit products.

"With the belt clip added to the Tool Saver, I can access my pliers and hook file -- instantly. With the Tool Saver holster, my fishing tools are kept rust free and clean instead of exposed to the elements in a tackle box or boat where they could easily rust."

"Prior to using the HoldZit Tool Savers we would replace our side cutters and hook file 2-4 times a year because of rust. For the past four years, we have used HoldZit Tool Savers and haven't replaced any of our fishing tools."

Marsha Bierman
International Saltwater Fishing Celebrity

"I used to purchase a set of needlenose pliers on my boat every several weeks because they would totally rust out. I tried the Tool Saver starting in August, and now, in October, my pliers look like the day I bought them. This is the most innovative, perfect marine product ever devised for the saltwater angler. I recommend it 100%."

Steve Medeiros, President
Rhode Island Saltwater Anglers Association

"Pat, man, you are true to your word! I have a pair of Gerbers that I have kept in the holder since I received it. As yet, no rust. In fact, I am usually the only one on the boat with pliers that work."

"I do all of my fly fishing in the surf around the Long Island, New York shoreline. It's a tough saltwater environment where rust and corrosion put up a constant battle, so when Pat Reichner sent me a sample Tool Saver, I figured I'd give it the toughest test possible -- use it. I followed Pat's directions about soaking the packing with WD-40 before and after I went wading. After a couple of months, my pliers actually look and operate better than when our saltwater fishing season began in the spring. Most of all, I'm finally able to carry the yellow-handle metal file that always sat on my fly tying bench. I think it's the best hook sharpener around, but I never took it fishing because I knew it would begin to rust within 100 yards of the salt. Now it stays where it's most handy, right on my wader belt, and after being completely submerged several times, there's little more than a few speckles of rust near the handle. My hooks are always sharp now. So many new products come on the fishing tackle market every year that to pick the best is a troublesome chore, but HOLDZIT Tool Savers certainly qualify."

"I would like to take a moment to comment on how effective your sheath is. I put my leatherman in your sheath 3 weeks ago and I must say my leatherman has never worked better. I attribute this increase in performance directly to the way the HOLDZIT maintains it. Another very desirable feature of your product is the way it holds the pliers in the sheath. All sheaths have a snap or lid that must be undone before you can get to your equipment. Not true with the HOLDZIT, this increases accessibility of your equipment. You should rename your product and call it the Holdzit Holdzter. Great job!"

"I own a HOLDZIT Tool Saver and find it one of the most essential items in my boat. Now that I have tested it for a period of several months, I plan to never be without it and don't know how I ever managed before I found it. I don't waste time looking for my pliers. The pliers and file never show a spot of rust and I sharpen my hooks much more frequently than in the past because my file is so handy! I rarely use the word "perfect," but it is appropriate when used to describe the HOLDZIT Tool Saver. I never leave home without it!"
