Care & Safety
- Store Dry: After wet use, wipe down the ferro rod to prevent surface oxidation
- Treat with Leather Oil to extend its life
- Rinse Regularly: Wearing your leather necklace in the shower helps keep the leather clean. Just be sure to rinse the ferro rod thoroughly — move it along the leather cord so all residue is washed away
- When not wearing, hang or coil the necklace loosely — avoid sharp bends in the cord

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Is the Bushcraft Necklace™ TSA Approved?
Here’s a quote directly from the TSA website: “The final decision rests with the TSA officer on whether an item is allowed through the checkpoint.”
Technically, our products are not “TSA Approved,” however, according to the TSA website, there is no such thing. Agents can use their own discretion to remove objects or personal items that they feel are a threat to the flight.
That being said, the Wazoo crew has flown on many domestic and international flights without any incident, testing the scrutiny of every necklace through the body scanner, magnetometer, and in carry-on luggage. Therefore, we can say with certainty that, depending on the circumstances, you should have no issues getting through TSA with our products.
TSA does provide a list of prohibited items, which can be reviewed HERE.
Can I wear the Bushcraft Necklace™ in the shower, ocean, lake, or river?
Absolutely, YES! We created this product to be worn everywhere, all the time, so that you’re always prepared for any situation.
Wearing the leather necklaces in the shower is better for them in the long run, as it ensures that you’ll keep the leather clean, just as you do your body.
Salt water and sweat can affect the integrity of the ferrocerium rod. As with any metal, the ferrocerium rod can corrode if exposed for a long period of time. When rinsing off the necklace, make sure to move the ferrocerium rod up and down the leather to rinse off any residue from all parts of the necklace.
What leather conditioner do you recommend?
To keep the leather soft, we use Obenauf's Heavy Duty LP Leather Preservative - All Natural Beeswax Oil Conditioner. It is available on Amazon.
Is the Ferro Rod replaceable?
Yes! If you need a replacement ferro rod, contact our support team and we'll be happy to help!
