The Leather Pendants are all hand-dyed in Chestnut Brown and tooled with an Oak leaf design. The best thing about them is that the Tinderbox really works, see video below.

Ease of Use Rating

 We have given this Traditional 'Flint & Steel' Tinderbox a 2/5 'Advanced'  rating as you do need to know how to use a flint & Steel Striker. The Fire Steel produes a good quaility spark but due to it's size it is a bit fiddly to use if you are new to Flint & Steel. Click here for more information on our Fire Steel ratings.
