After finishing my exams and leaving school, I had enough free time to produce some more knives and a few other turning related items, the firesteel handls were turned by drilling a blank with a hole slightly smaller than the firesteel rod and held using a bar the same size as the fire steel rod in a chuck with a live center for support.
These are knife sets with the hunter in mind. the blade is a quality cudeman 440 stainless, 3 1/4" drop point blank (one of spain's finest) and 7 3/4" overall length. the scales are burr elm and flamed maple, with firebrick red fibre liners. also fitted with 4mm brass mosaic pins, and 6mm brass lined lanyard hole. the firesteels are 10mm x 100mm long, and fitted with matching handles, on the end of which is a 12mm working compass.
Firesteels are very popular in the bushcraft community, they produce a shower of very hot sparks when struck with a hard piece of metal,like the back of a knife.
the set is all housed in a quality spanish leather sheath, which can be worn thru the belt buckle, or hung through the loop
Hope you all enjoy
