As I understand it, Tucker made the "Answer" first, with design help from Comp-Tac's head guy, and Comp-Tac supplied the kydex part to Tucker. I don't know if that's still the case or if Tucker now has a different supplier. FWIW, I remember when Tucker first started making the Answer and it had to be at least 5 or 6 years ago, maybe more. I don't know how long the Crossbreed has been around.

Either out of professional courtesy, or maybe just because he had enough on his plate to keep him busy, Comp-Tac didn't offer a similar product for a long time, but just recently decided it was time to get in that market. With typical Comp-Tac results, it seems to be a big hit and the guy at Comp-Tac tells me they've sold a lot more, and a lot faster, than they expected.

In case you didn't know it, Comp-Tac is now offering kydex reinforced leather belts, too.
