Holsters are generally available for all Medium or smaller weapons. (Larger weapons are usually carried on shoulder straps, hangers, or baldrics that cost as much as a Hip Holster.) A Holster for a melee weapon is usually called a sheath.
Hip Holster: This Holster holds the weapon in an easily accessed- and easily seen- location.
Concealed Holster: A Concealed Holster is designed to help keep a weapon out of sight. On most cases, this is a Shoulder Holster (the weapon fits under the wearer's armpit, presumably beneath a jacket, vest, or cloak). Small or Tiny weapons and single-bladed Lightsabers can be carried in concealed waistband holsters (often placed inside the wearer's waistband in the small of the back). Tiny weapons and single-bladed Lightsabers can also be carried on ankle, boot, or wrist Holsters.
A Concealed Holster allows you to draw a Concealed weapon as a Move Action, instead of a Standard Action, but you take a -5 penalty on your Stealth check to conceal the weapon.
