fire steel no handle -- where can I get one?

[jdlenton]

Hi all

Now I've seen on numerous occasions and in numerous posts people making nice ends for their fire steels that match there knife handles .

I’ve made my self a nice knife and I’m just making a nice sheath with a steal holder on it I don’t want to get a fire steal with a handle on it and have to remove it. So where can I buy a fire steel with no handle ?

The one I’ve used in my pattern making is about 10mm in diameter and just over 90mm long with the handle so I will require similar

Thanks James

No handle, just a hole drilled through one end, which your handle could cover/use.

From the pic they're about 75mm long by 10mm diameter.
