I've got a top of the range chunk of fomes fomentarius (horses-hoof fungus) to swap for a steel c-striker for use with flint.
I don't know how to link to fotos in the gallery, if someone explains it to me I'll post a link to a foto with a ruler, so you know what ur getting.
cheers

PS I've posted a foto in the members gallery, titled "fungus for swap", with the following text:
"This is a slice from a large fungus, about an inch wide.
The spongy yellow-ish trama layer is the business part, either fluff it up and use for tinder or if you're feeling adventurous you can cut out the trama layer and make amadou with it.
The rest can be cut up and charred to make unstoppable coal extenders. A piece the size of a small sugar-lump will burn unattended for 10 minutes and light any tinder bundle."
