We've always maintained that the GS® Eyelets are the best in class and we'd never settle for anything less. Domestically manufactured, the Stimpson GS® 8 outshines them all as the designated flagship eyelet within the holster and sheath manufacturing arena. These eyelet are used for the larger projects or when you fasten multiple sheets (more than the standard 2 pieces) of Kydex together and need a longer eyelet than our standard 8-8 eyelet. These eyelets typically consist of a tubular-shaped ring with flared ends. They are inserted into pre-punched holes in materials like fabric or leather to reinforce the edges or create attachment points. This category of eyelets are commonly made from durable materials such as brass or steel to ensure strength and longevity. They provide a secure and aesthetically pleasing solution for lacing, fastening, or adding decorative accents to various items.
