Flint and steel sparks are nowhere near as hot as those coming off a ferro rod. There are only a few materials that will light with flint and steel without being charred.

A buddy of mine made a nice little bushcraft knife out of a 1095 carbon steel blank. Not sure what process he put it through as far as tempering and heat treating but I can't get it to throw sparks. I've tried English Flint, Chert and Quartz. Not a single spark from any of them. My WCF striker...

One of the attractions of high carbon steels, as we all know, is the capability of striking sparks with flint, chert or quartz. I have started several fires with my Terävä Jääkäripuukko and with an Opinel. I really don’t want to hit my very nice, very expensive 3V knife with a rock, but would...
Does any know where I can harvest a little knappable material in CO? I have some troublesome chert and Texas chert that was gifted to me, but I would like to gather a little of my own just so I can say I harvested, and created from beginning to end.
Emberlit flint and steel striker review Emberlit makes some very cool looking striker designs. So when the wife was placing an order on Amazon I had her order one for me. It came with a large piece of "flint". I got a few sparks off the supplied flint but even more rock chips.
Made a couple neat little pouches tonight and wanted to offer them up here. I made myself one (the first two pics) for a lightweight flint and steel pouch. But they could be used for whatever you want. They are big enough to hold your flint, steel and some tinder / char cloth. These are made out...
