I would like to get some opinions on what accessory to carry in the pouch on the front of my sheath of my Ontario Rat-7.I waffle back in forth between 1.sharpening stone 2. water purifing tablets 3. another knife(folder) or 4.a fire starter. I guess I could wear a pack or load my pockets up ( which drives me nuts) on my long hikes .A lot of times I want to go light.Just me, my knife and a water bottle.
thanks Patrick James
 
If it's a small pouch, I would recommend combining some fire starting accessories (a match case with striking surface) and a SAK or multitool (Leatherman Juice?). This way you get some versatility.

I carry a lighter everyday so fire is covered. personally i carry a sak or a multi tool in the pouch on my bk&t. later, ahgar
