Hello All!
I recently bought a small dive knife and would like to attach it to my BCD. The instructions that came with the knife, say to poke a couple holes in the fabric to put the screws through. I do not want to do that, as I believe it will compromise the strength of the fabric. I thought I would install some small grommets instead.
Locally, I found brass grommets that would work. My question is whether brass will hold up to salt water? I might be able to special order stainless steel or nickel-plated grommets.
Does anyone know if brass is OK, or if one of the other options is better?
Thanks!
