Roughed out an ivy hearth with my axe, to use for hand drill. Did It during lunch break at work.

My Bushcraft effort this weekend was taking my kids up to Savernake forest and trying out ,
(A very generous present from a true gentleman ,member of this community, Mr. David-JAFO, as a thank you for sending him some flint...),
A couple of topnotch steel strikers, straight off the anvil!
These just spit out Sparks like nobody's business , I'm new to the primitive method, as I have always used ferrocium, but it took me no time to get a crampball fungui lit.
What a satisfaction that is..
Primitive is the way .
I had built a bow drill a couple of years ago but failed to light up.
This time I didn't really know if it was going to work, as all the flint was soaked but...
yep , no worries at all.
Sorry I have no pics of the day, but thank you again David for your very kind gift...

Here's a picture of my little boy 's fire kit now, complete with Steel striker.
Clockwise: Top left is his brand new steel striker (Hudson bay, Ray Mears) , right is some King Alfred's cakes, underside is some dried birch bark ( outer) and a sharp Flint stone found in Savernake.
