oak burr firesteel

customized this one this afternoon- needs a little bit more sanding and a few coats of varnish, maybe a bit of stain.

 

[jonnie drake]

any ideas how to finish it? thinking of putting lanyard holes in.

Once that has been sanded with fine grit sandpaper, that will ook awesome!

Very cool piece as said just sand it up and varnish it put a leather lanyard on it maybe?

 

[jonnie drake]

cheers guys. dont have any leather but paracord might look good?

I'd oil it rather than varnish - Danish oil is great for this kind of project.

paracord would be fine but a thin leather cord with a nice knot would look better in my opinion - I'll send you a bit if you send me your addy via pm

 

[jonnie drake]

thanks mate, sounds like the oil would bring out more detail in the wood too. Very kind of you to offer I will take you up on that

Looks great, let me know if you need any help with knots...
