I wonder who that gentleman is ....

Very nice RB, but no matching firesteel?

I got a pice from http://www.attacc.com/. Might be a bit pricey though as they're a retailer.

Cheers

Allan you could try www.brisa.fi as they do most kinds of birch... dunno how fast they could ship to you though.

If you phone these folks they might be able to help.

They have always been prepared to help when I was looking for something specific, and they carry an excellent range of blanks for things like pens and bread and cheese knives so they know the sort of thing you're looking for.

Cheers,
