Steel Striker

Weight: 32 g 38 reviews

The Steel Striker is a fantastically simple fire-lighting tool based on ancient designs. When struck with a piece of flint, the Steel Striker will give off a shower of sparks with which to ignite your charred cloth or tinder of choice. This is an excellent skill to learn as an alternative to modern fire lighting techniques, and is taught on a number of our courses.

Each striker is hand-forged exclusively for Woodlore by the esteemed British blacksmith Andrew Kirkham. Andrew has produced a number of items for Ray and Woodlore over the years, including our Folding Griddles and Ray Mears Crooked Knives.

We also sell the Traditional Canadian Steel Striker, a tool based on those used during the fur trade.

I purchased a Steel Striker, Wow! this works great, thank you so much for such a great piece of kit. I'll be taking on every adventure. The sparks you get from this are amazing. I highly recommend this Steel Striker to anyone who enjoys the great outdoors like me. Best wishes from, Mike.

There are flint strikers and there are flint strikers but I can tell you this one works. I have recently been disappointed with some lower quality strikers from ebay, some throwing very weak sparks and one or two throwing no spark at all. The cost of this one is a little higher but well worth the price when you see the bright shower of sparks it produces. Thanks for a quality item.

Good quality striker that reliably throws sparks. Appears slightly thinner than I expected but works well and fits comfortably to the hand.

This Striker was more than I expected, works great with my local quartz. Hats off to the Craftsman who made this by Hand. Very Happy Customer from Pennsylvania U.S.A.

This steel striker is quite simply beautiful. It is elegant, fits comfortably in the hand and most importantly of all works extremely well. At the same time as purchasing this fire steel, I also ordered a cheaper well reviewed one from Amazon. The Amazon one works well but is not quite as good at creating Sparks, not as comfortable in the hand and not as beautifully made, in my opinion. If you want the best for you have to pay a bit more.
