English Flint Fire Strikers (5 Piece) Flint for Sparking Survival Tools Outdoor Camping

The flint came in a black velvet bag which was stuffed full. This bag contained 5 pieces of natural flint, 2 of which were quite large; one was small but still useful in size. They appear to be English flint, and they spark like a true English flint when struck with a good piece of steel. I was quite impressed with the quality and quantity of flint in this order.

Haven’t spent a ton of time with these yet, but I’ve had fun testing them out in my shop. Managed to start a few tiny “birds nest” fires just to see if they spark well (don’t worry, not real birds’ nests!). They struck nicely with my ESEE fire steel and produced a solid spark. I’m tossing them in my pack for my next Alaska bush adventure, they seem tough and durable enough to handle some serious outdoor use.

Great prodcut,a little pricese,the flint has sharp edges,again a little pricese.

Some reviewers reported the same experience, so I was expecting what I received. As the photos show, we received two nice size chunks. There was also two rather thin curved pieces, which look to be perfectly suitable striking flints. I am not a knapper, and have no interest in starting. The three thicker pieces I intended to cut with lapidary tools into musket flints. In that, I feel it was a good value for the money. One might wish to use the material for something other than fire strikers. In that case, it might be best to decide what to do with this product AFTER receiving it.

Great fire starters

No flat peices. Hard to use.

Glade I ordered these. By far my favorite fire building method. Good amount of edges to get a spark off your steel. Should buy a couple more.

Arrived quickly larger than any that I have received from other vendors. Very pleased, Will certainly order from this vendor IN THE FUTURE.
