View Full Version : Forged flint striker
A few weeks ago I was over at Dave Budd's workshop learning how to forge a knife. I have posted the (nearly finished) result of those labours here: http://www.bushcraftuk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=22226
At one point during the day we had a few moments spare and Dave suggested I make something else -so I did. Here it is!

A very simple steel striker for flint and unique to me :)

Dave Budd.
I visited your site and am well impressed. The misses for the first time in living with a tracker and bushcrafter got enthusiastic about your approach. It is about time my mate Nick got some fame. Nice work on your forging Nick.
Great work
Jamie
Cheers Jamie! I'll make you one when I have set up a forge at home or I could just borrow Nick's instead! He definitely has caught the forging bug :D

thanks :), I don't like BS and I don't like bandwagons, so i guess I just get on with things my own way and it seems to be a refreshing change. always space for husband-wife teams on courses you know ;)
sounds like I created a forging frenzy :D
