Traditional steel striker set

Product Information

Size, rolled up 145mm x 50mm x 30mm

A very popular set and rightly so, I carry my early prototype set with me everyday. This type of set has been used for centuries, a high carbon steel striker is struck against a flake of flint to make the sparks. I have included a few pictures of the kit in use, I would however advise letting go of the tinder when it catches a bit earlier than I did.
Kit includes:

  • A choice of black leather or  dark brown suede pouch. 
  • Char cloth to catch the sparks.
  • Laminated instructions, these double as a holder for the fragile char cloth.
  • Grass tinder which is ignited by the char cloth to produce flames. This is actually supplied in a separate paper bag, enough to stuff the pouch with two or three times.
  • Three flakes of flint, these cut tiny shards of steel from the striker, these are the sparks.
  • The striker itself,  forged from recycled file, heat treated to throw the most impressive shower of sparks.

Available in three sizes:

  • Small - suitable for teenagers and adults with small hands,
  • Medium- most women and men with smaller hands, me!
  • Large- Mostly for men

If in doubt about sizes please contact me.
