Hi all,
Am after a bulk order of firesteels. Between 50 - 100. Does anyone know a good place to get this quantity?. I'm not after the cheap steels that dont spark very well. I'm after good quality at a good price.
Thanks for any help in advance

Thanks Stringmaker and one and all. Knew I could rely on you folks for help and advice. Gutted I couldn't make it to the moot after all, so hope everyone is having a blast!! :-) - Yes indeed 'Personal Indemnity Insurance is vital too. I teach the bit I know about wild plants for food & medicine...
Excellent stuff thanks very much everyone. Yes my courses WILL involve fires and knives, Axes, plants, funghi etc. £500 is a lot of money but I've got myself a very good deal to train staff for a fairly large company and some work in colleges so will be able to afford it. I'm actually extremely...
I've been lucky enough to have been given some work recently for various places like colleges and a big company in UK - I must get some good bushcraft Instructor Insurance so can anyone recommend a good reliable and most of all 'Straight' company to go with for Bushcraft/outdoor Insurance. I DO...

Lots of beech mast too developing. Think I'll have a go at pressing some for beech nut oil later in the year. Never done it before but would be fun to have a go.
Going to give this a go this year - made some ramsons pesto a few weeks ago yum, was lovely spread over a couple of pork chops and grilled, and dandelion infused oil for salads. I mean every year to make elder flower cordial so am going to get my backside out to pick some when the sun eventually...
The plantains I'm talking of are wild plants that grow in Britain and I believe the US (I read somewhere that it was taken to the US by the settlers and know as 'white mans footprint' by the native indians as it grows near hard packed soil where the wagons had been) It does indeed like hard...
'Wild Service Tree' maybe..............I think the latin name has sorbas, sobus or something like that in it. Maybe in the 'acer 'family.............and yes i'ts very rare. I's a very specific tree that has to have the right soil and absolutely the right conditions. The wood was used for...
