Received my French black flints from Jack & Jude Droesch, Heritage products. Ordered 12; received 13 nice looking flints and a hand-written receipt with a 'thanks for your order' . Nice touch. Thanks Jack, Jude and Judith!.

French black flints?
Odd.
Do you mean French AMBER flints??

I recall that the French flints offered by Jack and Judy were the French amber flints. I have a couple that I have in reserve in my flint selection.
I also recall the excellent selection and great personal service that they offered when they were able to set up their shop.

Their website explains that there are black flint deposits not only in England but also in France. They sell both types.
Names on the business card are 'Jack and Jude', nice receipt is signed 'Judith'. ? My apologies to the Droesch's if I've misnamed someone in my OP.
Flints are indeed black French. Site offers both French amber and French black, and at same price.

I just received my order last week. These are great flints and I will continue to order from them. I have been down the road on picking out and buying flints and I must say, in my 50 years of shooting and buying, these are the best I have encountered. Mine were amber but they threw in a couple black for me to try.....
Great folks and a great product.
