Comstock Trading Company was born from more than just a love for well-made goods, it was built to carry forward something worth preserving.
My family (above photo) came to Dayton, Nevada, in 1904 drawn to the west like so many others by the promise and grit of the Comstock Lode. They weren’t looking for easy, they were looking for honest work, a fair trade, and the chance to build something that could last generations. That spirit never left our blood.
Growing up as a multi-generational Nevadan, I spent my youth outdoors or on the road, windows down, radio humming, dirt on the floorboards. I remember road trips that weren’t about destinations, but about stops along the way: the old antique stores, roadside relics, forgotten trading posts, and small-town general stores where everything on the shelf had a story. That’s where I first learned to appreciate real things like handmade tools, leather that wore in, not out, and goods that weren’t designed to be replaced every year.
Comstock Trading Co. is my way of honoring that memory. It’s a tribute to the America I grew up believing in; the one full of pride, resilience, and craftsmanship. A place where men and women built with their hands and stood behind their work. Where your word mattered, your tools stayed with you for decades, and your coffee came in a tin you didn’t throw away.
We work with American craftsmen from across the country, some full-time makers, others with calloused hands from ranches, workshops, and family sheds. Each product we carry is chosen with care, because it's not just about selling something, it's about passing on the legacy of those who built this country with sweat and steel.
This isn’t just a store. It’s a trading post for those who still believe in doing things right. A place for field-ready goods, timeless provisions, and the kind of quality that used to be common.
We’re here to preserve what matters.
And we hope you’ll ride along.

Every product at Comstock Trading Co. is made by skilled American craftsmen, small-batch makers, and heritage brands that still believe in doing things the right way. We work directly with those who take pride in their craft—people who build with their hands, not just machines. From leatherworkers and blacksmiths to heritage clothiers and toolmakers, we source from those who share our values of quality, durability, and American tradition. Check out Behind the Craftsmen to learn more about some of the folks that make the products we sell.
While we ship most of our products, there are some vendors that prefer to ship their product due to the shipping process itself being a better experience for the customer. Such as brooms, meats, larger items, fragile items, barbecues, etc.
