Hi there Bill, a much better flint striker is about 2 1/2 inches of hacksaw blade, the smooth edge not the tooth side. Wrap about an inch of one end with a couple of turns of electrical tape and your good to go. This works much nicer and you don't mess up your knife edge... Have a good day... the bigguy...
One more thgin Bill, if you push down hard and go slow you cna use the spine of your knife for the firesteel so you don't dull the edge...Just a good tip...
Looks like you guys had fun, whas that a couple you met online? or regular freinds going out camping with you guys? Just wondering, anyway the flint and steel is my favorite primitive way to make fire!!!!

Who is the knifemaker that made that large fixed blade?
