Had a PM today from a member that has a demo to do on Saturday, showing 6 Air Cadet how to make fire from Flint and Steel. 
Slight problem being that he lost his steel this weekend in the woods.:yikes:
So did these 7 for him (more files gone to a better place)
. 6 are a little smaller than normal for smaller hands, & one is full size. No twist unfortunately , just scroll handles on these, as I needed to get them done fairly quickly. Heated to critical and water quenched twice.
Just tested them on some of Cromer beaches finest. They throw bright sparks just by strong stroking instead of the normal glancing blows. :yikes: They should be well pleased
After the demo they will probably be for sale if anyones interested ranging form £6 to £10 (got to get some more gas and build the new coal forge don't ye know)
