Abstract: A tool holder for mounting on a user's belt. The tool holder includes a support member having two front supports and two rear supports. Each rear support has a rear top portion, a rear bottom portion, and a rear transition portion positioned therebetween. Each front support is spaced from and biased substantially parallel to the rear top portion and is nonparallel to the rear bottom portion. Each rear transition portion extends toward the front support to provide a narrow gap which is smaller than the spacing between the front support and rear top portion, and the rear supports are connected by a support cross member. A bracket member extends between and connects the front supports, and a tool holding portion is provided for holding a tool. When the tool holder is mounted on a user's belt, front supports and rear transition portions provide resistance to removal of the support member from the belt.
