One of our most perfect performing Strikers to date. Easy to hold due to the Leather Braiding and the curved striking edge makes it probably one of our best Strikers we've ever designed. The edge has been hand braided with calf leather and comes in Hazel Brown or Charcoal Black. This type of hand braiding takes quite a long time to do and you need the patience of a Saint in order to get the right sequence but it does give this Fire Steel quite a unique detail and makes it totally functional. These Fire Steels have been reduced  due to being discontinued. They are a little bit rustic in apperance but they spark beautifully. The leather edging makes these fire steel nice to hold too.

These Fire Steels are great for beginners and also the most advanced users of Flint & Steel as its extremely easy to use, hold and is extremely robust. The leather trim has been hand laced by us at Beaver Bushcraft. Please note no Flint or Tinders are included with this sale but can be purchased separately. Please see our drop down menus for extra options.

This particular Steel Striker is used for traditional ‘Flint & Steel’ fire making. Used with Amadou tinder fungus or Char Cloth, the sparks created from this style of steel striker will easily form an ember that can be used to ignite a tinder bundle.
