| 1. | As a firestarter. The striker is high carbon steel, and is used for striking the flint and magnesium, and for shaving wood from the handle for tinder. The flint strikes at twice the heat of a match. Hold the striker firmly. Push its edge firmly and slowly along the flint. It will produce a lot of sparks. Aim the sparks into the fine tinder you have gathered. The magnesium can be shaved and used when everything is wet, it will burn at approx. 800 degrees Celsius. The handle is a very oily wood called Padauk. It can be shaved off with the striker and used for tinder if there is no other dry tinder around, i.e. bark, dry fine grass, dry leaves or steel wool, etc, are suitable to use as tinder. |
| 2. | As a signal. The flash from the flint is so bright, it can be seen for up to 5 kms at night. |
