Wow, suffice to say you will never be without fire with that lot. Thnx for sharing bud, I'm yet to make my tinder kit so you've given me plenty to look at :)

Nice kit Justin,tell us more about the sulphur matches,never heard of them.

They are mentioned in some of ray mears books, the idea is is to get a quick flame from a bow drill ember or cramp ball. They will not light in the usual way, because they are just dipped in sulphur instead of whatever they dip them in normally!

Hope that's useful
