Designed and made by us they are part of our new range of Fantasy Fire Steels. Snakes are considered  to be a symbol of eternity and the continuous renewal of life. Historically, Serpents & Snakes represent fertility or a creative life force. As Snakes shed their skin they are symbols of rebirth, transformation, immortality and healing. The triskele motif is linked to Celtic art but the name comes from the Greek word 'tri' and 'skelos'. The belief is that it represents life, death & rebirth.

This Fire Steel is easy to hold and the curved edge makes the perfect striking edge. A good array of sparks is created when you use the correct technique along with a sharp piece of flint and good quality, dry tinder such as Char Cloth or Amadou. 

Our Fire Steels have been specially designed to spark efficiently when using the correct striking technique, and that optimal spark generation can only really be achieved when using a new super sharp piece of flint, as well as some good quality, and dry tinder, such as Char Cloth, Amadou or Chaga.

Happy Fire Lighting!
