Fire Racket, Carbon Steel Spark Arrester (Heat Treated), Simply Coiled

Enjoy Fire Racket, Carbon Steel Spark Plug (Heat Treated), Simply Coiled

Fire bat, spark iron made of carbon steel (heat treated), simply coiled

This fire racket, forged from carbon steel, is based on historical originals used in the High Middle Ages. The ends of the sparkplug are simply rolled up.

If you strike the steel against the sharp edge of a flint, sparks are created that jump onto the dry tinder and make it glow. Tinder sponges were formerly used as tinder. These were obtained from tree sponges and made to glow by dipping them in a saltpeter solution or rubbing them with black powder.

Details:

- Material: carbon steel (heat treated)
