Where to get firesteel blanks?

[Snow]

I know somebody in here has a link in their sig to a site that sells firesteel blanks, but I can't find it. Anybody wanna help me out?

I don't know if someone has it in their sig line, but Bensbackwoods has some.

I had good luck on flea-bay, I got 20 good blanks for about 15 bucks or so.

There's a guy on eBay now selling them in some weird sizes. He has one that's like 1/2" thick by 12" long. You could probably start a nuclear reaction with one of those.

Check the for sale forum, there was some a few days ago for sale. (Kias?)

I like to buy at http://www.ferrocerium.com/main.sc. They've got some monster blanks there!

Is there any advantage to the monster sizes? I have a Light My Fire Scout model and Army model, and I prefer the Army due to it's size, but not sure that I'd want any bigger.

The monster sizes create a much bigger shower of sparks.

I usually carry a LightMyFire Scout model, but my girlfriend told me I need a bigger one.

I think this is the site you were thinking about in the sig line. http://goinggear.com

Holy crow! I would like one just for the novelty.
A bigger rod does make more sparks, it's all about surface area.
I once flattened one on one side with a file, after about 10 minutes of an insane amount of sparks, it could throw a mean shower of them easy. I have been meaning to do it on a bit smaller scale with a few more, partly because it was so fun.

Yep, that's it. Thanks.


And thanks for all of the other links. I was frustrated that I couldn't remember this one, though.
