Cool

Donald,

Looks I'm like you've laid out all the options. I like your ingenuity wIth the magnets!
There are magnets available called " rare earth magnets" that would do the trick. They are small and powerful.

But I believe your best options are to as Hondo described and remold the sheath with foam. A hair dryer will work fine (unless you have a heat gun, the type used for for stripping pain, on it's lowest setting) in any case don't get in a hurry while you heat it up. Be patient and heat it slowly. If you get it too hot too quickly it will scorch and be shiny.

If that fails send it back!

Good luck!
Alex

I just noticed this original post is about 4 years old! Darn.... Donald, I hope you figured something out before now
