anyone know of a good processed flint striker, and a good sharpener that i can attach to my knife sheath. i want something like a stick sharpener that will work well in a survival situation, and preferable have some type of feature that i can use to sharpen the sawback. and i want a processed flint striker thats really thick. ive bought the magnesium/flint striker before and the flint wears out way before i use enough magnesuim. half the time i dont even need the magnesium. any suggestions? if you know the place that sell them please provide a link. thanks
 
for a very thick ferro rod, try a military fire starter from survival sheaths, i have dealt with them they are prompt and courtous. they hav a whole bunch of rods , somew ith attached knife sharpeners so check out this site:

for a sharpener i like some of the diamond stones like this one, it is thin enough that you could use it to sharpen the saw, but you should really use a file for that.
