Hi guys,
My brother got me a sharpshooter sheath for my bravo-1 on my birthday, very high quality piece, definately better than the kydex. It has a firesteel loop on it but I don't have a fire steel that fits it, Where is the best place to get one? The best place I found was knivesshipfree but it would still cost me like $30 with shipping to Canada and duty/taxes which I don't feel like paying when I have so many scout ones lying around.
Thanks.

You can increase the diameter of the scout rod to fit the loop, by fitting the rod into in a piece of plastic tubing that has been cut to the right length.

That way you'll be able to use your existing scout sized firesteels.


Kind regards
Mick

Yeah I had one of those (canadian tire carries them), they're pretty inferior to LMF ones. I like the idea of the tubing, I guess I can use that if I can't find a fullsize one. MEC does carry one but I don't know if it'll fit the sheath? I'ts made in Sweden so it's probably a rebranded LMF but I don't know for sure.

Hi 3Wolves, i just walked down to MEC, the firesteels there are the Primus ones, and they are 1/4" thick.

Wow, thanks alot! I really appreciate it! I am jealous that you live so close to Warriors and wonders though.:grumpy::D:thumbup:
 
No prob, i had to go there anyways!

If you want the firesteel from MEC, and dont have a CC for online ordering, let me know and i'll pick one up and mail it to you.
 
Thanks alot for the offer B5 but I was gonna get some sak's and stuff from there anyway so I'll just add it to the order.:thumbup:
