Title says it all. What do you keep in your sheaths?

Here's what's in my BK17 sheath:



Top to bottom:
Sheath
BK17
Ferro rod w/case, lanyard, and striker
Mini-Altoids tin with cottons balls and Vaseline, fatwood, and Esbit cube (I've never needed the Esbit cube.)
Buck 425 Mini-Buck
 
Nice kit you've got there. Not a ton of room for a true survival kit, so like you I threw together a fire kit for my sheath.





I've got an el cheapo firesteel on a loop sewn on the side of the sheath. An Excel mints tin in the pouch, with the following contents:

Small Bic lighter
1/2 dozen fire straws
Small baggie of fat wood shavings
2ft. of jute twine

Also SOG knife sharpener/firesteel tucked in behind the molle straps at the back, and some bicycle inner tube around the middle of the sheath.

Still plan on adding some pieces of char cloth to it (when springtime comes so I can shovel a path to my BBQ) and a birthday candle when we get some (what kind of household with a 6 year old doesn't have birthday candles??). I enjoy having several options to play with when starting fires.
