Got the CK one, with the belt drill holder phone holder, nice bit of kit you can take of what you do not want to use, the tool pouch has lots of compartments And a handle on the top so you can use it as a small tool bag ( very small tool bag but good for grab and go) will find a link for you but think you will find it before me

I have a tool roll fixed to my belt so I can carry all the screwdrivers!
However it is all just falling apart at the moment. Needs more rivets!
The forge steel ones don't last long enough, but you probably weren't even considering those!
I tend to use my workpant pockets and additional flappy pockets. I can usually fit half a dozen drivers, cutters, pliers, voltage indicator, and a handful of other tools in there. There is also the additional bonus of the random junk accumulated in the bottom of the flappy pockets. Im never wanting for a inch and half eight screw, wago of some kind, bit of sleeving, 3.5mm screw, or some other useful bit when I'm sporting my flappy pocket trousers.
Yeah I only really do them for a few builders that ive worked with for years, they appreciate whats involved in doing a good job and allow sufficient time and money on the job. Ive heard/seen some complete horror stories round my way though lolHorses for courses i suppose. I don't do new builds. Not at the prices wanted round here, proper mugs game. You seem to do it right though.
I've been using the Toughbuilt stuff for the last couple of years. It's really handy to be able to clip the various holders and pouches on and off as needed without removing the belt.

I use this belt, which is well padded: http://www.toughbuilt.com/product/padded-belt-heavy-duty-buckle
The pouch I use the most is this one as it has loads of screwdriver pockets along the outside edge. But it looks as if they might have discontinued it: ToughBuilt Electricians Tool Pouch with Shoulder Strap - Pouches - Belts & Pouches - Tool Storage & Workwear - http://williamstools.co.uk/tool-storage-workwear/belts-pouches/pouches/toughbuilt-electricians-tool-pouch-with-shoulder-strap.html
