This is genius and exactly what I was looking for. I have a full size and a mini camp hatchet and I wanted to add a ferro rod to both. I looked and the cheapest kydex one was $15 and up including shipping. So I went to Amazon to just buy a sheet of kydex and make one, that started at $10 and up. I'm glad I came to KZfaq cause I'm just going to go to the hardware store tomorrow and grab a handful of these and some heat shrink to make the handle. I'm going to use rivets to mount to the sheaths since I have some sitting in the garage already. Thanks for making this video.

Great job! The cable clamps are brilliant!!

Much better than my way. Thanks. I just got myself an SRK. Sheath needs a ferro rod holder.

Awesome idea, just spent the better part of an hour looking on line for holders and then I saw your solution. Awesome !!!! Thank you.

Great idea. Nothing like a good old hardware store for finding all those little “treasures “

This is genius I love it! I made a sheath for mine outta duck tape but it’s only temporary n now that I found this video I’m definitely gonna go this route! Great idea dude!!

That's a great idea, I'll keep my eye out for some of those - Greatmod.

Fantastic idea! I have a 1/2:" FIresteel I want to add to my ESEE Junglas and you just solved it for me. Just a thought for those having to use the white nylon versions, I'd bet that they'd dye black pretty easily with some black RIT Dye and boiling water. I've seen other nylon handle scales dyed this way. While certainly not necessary, just because we enjoy roughing it in the woods, doesn't mean we're immune to fine aesthetics. Thank you again!

Excellent idea!!

Fantastic video, man! 👍

Awesome hack, thank you!

Great info. Thank you.

That's awesome, thanks for that

Fantastic, so simple so efficient.

Great idea !

I'm ordering an ESEE 6 and I've spent the last two hours trying to find a ferrorod loop for my 1/2" rod🤦‍♂️ This totally ends my search! Thank you times 2! 🙌🙌 One because I know how to overcome my obstacle, and two because I have a legitimate reason to go to the hardware store (my wife's gonna love that) 😂😂

Awesome Thank You

As always, very great idea

Great idea thanks for making this video

This is awesome.

This is an outstanding idea! You can purchase the nylon loops or nylon cable clamps in black. One can spray paint them black. I wish all the Mora, Hultafors, Condors, and others came with this type of Ferro Rod Holder. I know the Extremus comes with a built-in Ferro Rod Holder on the side.

A really good idea 👍 I use those loops for holding cables all the time and never thought to do that 😜 TFS

Great Idea 👍

Wow thats a great idea, thanks for sharing 👍 stay safe

Great idea

this video just earned a like and follow! the Tops BOB knife comes with a small ferro rod and i want to mount a 6 inch by half inch rod to it. Literally looking everywhere for kydex attachment for it and stumble on this video. Thank You!!! I will be doing this and and filing a 90 degree spine on the BOB and it will be a perfect Bushcraft knife. TY again!

flippen awesome ider brother well done thank you

This would work on leather too if you punched a couple holes in it. Also you could use leather and some Chicago screws to make one for the Kydex sheath.

Thank you for sharing MR🌴💕🏝🙏

Good idea

Thnxs 4 sharing

Awesome idea, MR. You're the best! Hope all is well.

great lil tip Modern thanks

Thanks for the great tips MR :-)

ingenious

I have been useing the cable ties for about 10yrs..now I just didn't think to tell anyone

I swear to God I just had the same idea but I was going to use the ones with the rubber attached to metal and I didn’t have the right size at home so I’m going to Home Depot to get the ones you have and I think they have them in black. 👊🏼

Great tips ,, thanks for sharing , God bless !

Which ferro rods do you use and how do you like them?

Hey M.R. Had to stop back and ask your opinion of that Buck Mesa.

did you make the rods yourself too? if yes, how?

Try some black oxide Chicago screws, they'd be low profile and look great.

If l told you the time and effort l put into attaching ferro rods on my sheaths you wouldnt believe it, and most of them last, as long as l dont ever take the knife out, my wife watched , at the end l said this guy is better than me at everything, " Interesting " she said and walked out.
