This fire courtesy of LaPaix Knife and Tool 😎. Hand forged flint striker, piece of chert and a little charred materials inside the Hudson Bay tobacco tin and you have fire 🤠. Of course I keep it all in a hand made leather pouch 🤷🏻‍♂️ #customleather #handmadeleather #handforged #flintandsteel #fire #campfire #traditionalfirelighting #madeincanada #highlandhorde #highlandhordeoutdoors (at Beaver Bank, Nova Scotia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5xubNMB1dK/?igshid=frgtdda8q5u

While trying to get some usable flakes for flint and steel, this little shard caught my eye. I just love the color...the pictures don’t really show the depth of color very well 🤷🏻‍♂️ #flint #flintandsteel #chert #flintknapping #shard #traditionalfirelighting #pendants #stone #translucentstone #copperwire #madeincanada #highlandhorde #highlandhordeoutdoors (at Middle Sackville, Nova Scotia) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bz10d-5B6gd/?igshid=g1558p3mp7rz
