Ferrocerium Rod Holder Leatherman Charge
This part is designed to replace the pivot spacer and lanyard/pocket clip spacer on the Leatherman Charge + and Charge Titanium. It comes with one plastic part and one or two ferrocerium rods.
The plastic spacer which secures the rod will not fit the Wave or other models. You can store the rod under the file or saw, and use a tiny magnet attached to the frame to keep it from falling out. Magnets are included when you order just the rods.
This will fit best under the Saw. It will also fit under the file, but the file will be raised by about 1mm at the end. Not enough to be an issue, but it’s worth noting. If adding both the ferro rod and the tweezer/pin spacer, one of them will need to go under the file, and both options will raise the end of the file by approximately 1mm. If you want to keep both of the pocket clip and lanyard ring slots they can be swapped with the solid spacers, but the pocket clip will not work properly if installed on the opposite side, and you may run into issues keeping the hidden lanyard ring. I recommend removing that one and using the removable one that comes with the pocket clip instead.
The ferro rod is coated with a black paint to prevent corrosion. You will need to scrape through the paint layer before it will spark.
To remove the rod, open the saw or file, and use another tool to push it out in either direction. I like to push it into the handle, then tip it out into my hand.
These pieces are designed by myself, and 3D printed in matte black PLA on my FDM printer.
