Well It may not be that different but ive never seen one attatched to the belt loop before!

What do you think? bad idea?

Looks like it is more protected than on the side of the sheath. I like it, no need to advertise your kit and skill by having the fire steel in plain sight.

Quite a neat idea Shinken, and good clean work as usual. ;)
One thought that I had on this is why not fold the loop in the other direction, tucking the end under the main tab to keep things a little neater and thereby keeping the leather skin-side outside (like Hiawathas moccasins).
Just a thought. Other than that I can see no reason not to have the ferro rod loop there.

I had thought of that and might do it on another sheath. This way the firesteel is further from the sheath and the handle wont rub against it. Thats why i did it this way.

But of course it would look asthetically better the other way
