Traditional Flint & Steel Striker
Dear Beaverbushcraft, I received the package with the firesteel today and was also glady surprised to get a piece of amadou with it. This goes well into my brass flint and steel box or ‘tondeldoos’ as we call it here in the Netherlands. It looks like I finally obtainded a proper fire steel, as one ordered from the UK some years ago hardly gives a spark. The Nordic or Celtisch design (?) is really added value. Looking forward to making a flint and steel fire soon in the sequence of primitive or traditional fire making I am practicing currently; including successful bow fire making. It’s great fun and a good set of skills to have.
Anyway, thank you for the great service and attention. Looking forward to purchase from you again in the future. Perhaps a Hudson bay tinder box, which looks great. Cheers, Erwin van Maanen, EcoNatura – Onderzoek voor Natuur, Landschap & Duurzaamheid, Science for Nature & People l Thinking ecosystems.15/10/20
A nice little mention on Facebook from Kenny Knoble of his recent Beaver Bushcraft purchase.

- “Excellent seller would buy from them again”. Traditional Viking Dragon Flint & Steel Striker Fire Lighting. x-75 15/10/2020
Hello. I just wanted to tell you how much I like my thor's hammer striker. It's the perfect size for striking. The only thing I'd modify is making the hole be 8mm to accept 550 paracord. I also really like the amadou it takes a spark amazingly. I had only used charcloth, poplar inner bark and hemlock twigs for the most part because it's plentiful. Flint is handy as well as it does spark better than local quartz. First purchase. You are on my radar now. Sender: Brother Paul Brenton Benard 26/09/20

woodsmon on Instgram also did a short video of one of our tiny pendant strikers and challanged several of his followers to see if the could create sparks using a small piece of Flint & a tiny striker. "Tiny Spark Challenged myself. Inspired by finding this tiny flint shard on my walk today. Pendant fire steel from Beaver Bushcraft always around my neck and a little char cloth".

Jan 2020 on Instagram and another set of photos of our Tinder Teaser. The one of the left is by Wildnwelloutdoors on instgram and the one on the right is by Prepper In The Woods: “As a striker for a ferro rod this guy throws some good sparks @ beaverbushcraft”. Always good to read our customer comments. Prepper In The Woods has also done a neat little video on his You Tube channel of the Tinder Teaser. He even found some extra uses for it that we hadn’t even thought of.

Good morning, Thank you, i received the parcel yesterday and it was waiting for me at home after a day working in the woods, perfect! The steel is beautiful and bigger than i thought it was going to be, i like that. Throws some magnificent sparks. Pleasure doing business with you and will be a repeat customer for sure. We run a forest school and outdoor skills CIC, @elementaladaventures.org and will be looking to increase our equipment in the not too distant future and have my eye on plenty of your stock.. π I will be using the steel today at a workshop i am running for another organisation in our area today and i am sure it will get plenty of positive feedback.

Triskele Pendant /Steel Striker
Helen and Mark, The Triskele sword pendant I got from you is gorgeous and of excellent craftsmanship. I love it . Thank you so very much. I was also impressed at the fast shipping. I did not expect it to arrive as fast as something ordered from a UK seller. I've been looking for a Cross pendant striker for me and to gift my kids and nephews. I found several online, but to be honest, I loved your craftsmanship. Could you do a Cross pendant striker? Again, thank you, Jose 15/09/2019
We saw this great post on Instgram from madeinnature about their Beaver Bushcraft Tiskele Fire Steel Pendant. Great little review.

Just wanted to say I am really really happy with the steels! I was looking for something like a necklace for a while, even ordered something elsewhere (which was not what I hoped for) before I found your site. And now with these small ones, they are really pretty, not heavy, perfect for a necklae, and they work fantastic! They spark very easily. So thank you very much! Next time I know where to order ;-) Iris 26/08/2019

Traditional Flint & Steels Fire Strikers
Dear Sir/Madam.
I want to start my email to you apologizing for not emailing you earlier as I had wanted. So please forgive me in my late email to you and I truly am profusely sorry.
The reason why I am so sorry is because, I was so taken back not only by the speed of you emailing me to tell me a matter had be sorted out, but I could tell that you genuinely cares and kept me well informed. Now this leads me on to my second reason why I am so sorry for not emailing you earlier.
From my weighty well wrapped parcel I thought is this my order?
As I opened the outer packaging I was overwhelmed by how well each and every item was separately wrapped. The brown thin paper wrapping was such a nice touch, almost like everything was gift wrapped. Your presentation on how I received my items to me, was done with caring hands and a thoughtful mind. The labeling, the choice of cord and cards attached to the steels, the note inside, the whole lot. I literally had to sit down and have a look at each item, carefully handling them as you did when you wrapped them for me. The workmanship on those steels are amazing, really perfect workmanship from a skilled craftsmen. Then I discovered that you gave me a few extras. WOW thank you sooo much. I really am looking forward to trying out the new Tinder's and matches.
I still can't get over what a personal professional service you are providing. It's taken me a whole week to reply to you, literally as I have been lost for words to tell you just how happy I am. Thank you so much and I really do mean that. Best Wishes, Rew Fisher, 20/01/2019
