Mt latest strike a light steel.

[sticks65]

i Made it from an old metal work file and quenched it in salt water.

I then held the part you strike your flint with and heated the parts you hold when striking as soon as i felt any heat i cooled it in water,i repeated this process three times,some temper is better than none.

This baby throws off some sparks

And a couple i made for a friend.

You and me both mate,My Wife said my face lit up when i first used this steel [no pun intended.]

I get good sparks from all the steels ive made but this one has got to be the best so far.
