I have one. No wooden handle but I know what you mean. Very entertaining to use.
I used to practice a lot on my fireplace hearth. Sobering to realize that some practice really did help.
30 seconds with finely shredded birch bark tinder. 25 seconds with spruce twigs smashed to fiber.

Magnesium bar 3" x 1" x 1/4" with a ferro rod down one edge.
