Well done Wave Man aka Orion !

it has been a long time coming mate, but I finally found the 'one'

 

[Wave Man]

I didn't buy this one, it is a replacement for for the wrong one sent, Emberlit Dragon

 

[Wave Man]

Black Bear Forge Colonial R Type, 52 days in transit and the tracking is useless (as of this morning as per the tracking it was still in America)

 

[Wave Man]

2 replacement ferro rod/flint striker combos from BeaverBushcraft, these are my preferred striker now if I am not using my HSS striker on ferro rods

 

[Wave Man]

Hammerscroll Forge Midgard Serpent just arrived, really happy with this one.

 

[Wave Man]

Primitive Fire Making, #4 English Style striker, took 2 months to get me

 

[Wave Man]

a long anticipated striker, finally got one, I have long wanted one of these damascus strikers, very unusual

 

[Askew]

Nice. Is the striking edge Damascus?

 

[Wave Man]

Nice. Is the striking edge Damascus?

no mate, Adam forge welded a piece of high carbon steel onto the damascus as a striking edge.

 

[Wave Man]

just ordered this and really looking forward to it arriving, from the same smith who did the one above (damascus striker) ramshead damascus striker, Adam is a really talented smith and is doing strikers unlike any I have seen.

he also has some beautiful flint (I actually think it is chalcedony) for sale I am going to have to get, though it is US$15 of each piece so holding off at the moment. It would be too nice to strike on I am thinking.

US$15 …. I'll sell you stuff like that for AU $10 …. or you could just do a ebay search for "agate geode slice" and get your own for a couple of bucks ...

… get something FIRE coloured, they work best !

 

[Wave Man]

got three strikers today, only have a couple to come now.

Kirkham Viking tear drop

Brinkworth Smithy Knife/Striker combo and FS-3 striker

 

[Wave Man]

my Brinkworth Smithy collection (formally known as Olivemead), I now have a version of each of John's strikers (FS-1,2,3,4 and 5) and his knife/striker combo, sitting on a bed of Aussie flint.

These are among the best strikers I own and spark incredibly well.

 

[Wave Man]

this one just turned up, second last striker I have coming, Snake Figurine with twists

 

[Wave Man]

well bugger me 5 months in transit from Russia, titanium striker also arrived today.

I finally have a titanium striker I like using and it showers white hot sparks.

 

[Wave Man]
