Great looking firesteel
Firstly it looks good. Obviously goes nicely with other Kupilka kit too.
The lanyard is a good length, the handle is comfortable and is easy to keep a good grip on.
The ferry rod is big and strikes well, I’ve used it every day since I got it. It’s big enough to be easy to use but not bulky in a hip pocket.
Striker is interesting, has one rounded edge and one sharp. Not 100% it I like it but it works effectively.
Functional piece of kit
Very useful piece of kit when I'm delivering bushcraft sessions for work. The grip is comfortable and is highly effective at getting those sparks flying. Solid product for its price would recommend.
