The pouch is made from veg tanned cow hide in 3oz thickness. 6” X 3 1/2” and dyed brown with a soldered loop brass button, hand stitched with flax thread and made water resilient with a leather dressing of my own making.
The steel is 2 1/2” inside loop and sparks like a dragon! Comes with a flint shard, hemp fiber and char cloth as shown. Enough to get you up and running for a few fires.
The fringe is goat and is apx 1 1/2” long. Fringe is period correct to the 18th century and up and gives a bit of panache to the whole kit. Legend says that Daniels Boone’s firing was so powerful it would often kill bears while ol’ Dan was sleeping! Ok not really……
When I’m hunting, hiking or trekking, modern or primitive, I keep a fully stocked flint and steel on my person. If EVERYTHING goes wrong and the canoe dumps or I lost my gun in a fall or fleeing marauding scalp takers I still have the ability to make fire and that could be the difference between surviving and pushing up daisies!
This kit costs $40 shipped to conus. I accept checks, money orders, cleverly concealed cash or PayPal at [email protected]
Message me before paying as these sell quickly.
Thanks for your consideration
