Engraved Black Oxide
Chicago Screws™

Tactical Finish. Distinctive Details. Built to Last.

The Hardware That Finishes the Job Right

At HolsterSmith.com®, we know that a well-made holster or knife sheath is only as good as every component on it. The hardware you choose is not an afterthought — it is the difference between a piece that looks production-line and one that looks purpose-built.


That is exactly why we are proud to carry these Engraved Black Oxide Chicago Screws™. These 1/4” tactical #8 (0.25 inch) fasteners carry our darkest, most refined Black Oxide finish — the kind of tactical look that lets the rest of your work speak for itself. And now, with six distinct head engravings to choose from, every build you sign off on can carry a mark that is uniquely yours.

Six Engravings. One for Every Build.

The head of each female post features a precision engraving. Whether you are building for a tactical operator, a hunter, or a collector who demands detail, there is an engraving in this lineup that fits the job.

  • Cross — Clean, classic, and understated

  • Star — A bold shape with deep American roots

  • Saw Blade — Made for the builder who means business

  • Spartan Helmet — Warrior ethos, built right into the hardware
