Been doing it now for 4 years and love every minute of it. I have found places that I never would have before, and real cheap to start. Just need a gps.
Thats what stopping me ::), between the crappy job I've got so I can see a lot of my son, paying the debt's my ex ran up while still paying her maintanence >:(, kinda eats into the toy fund :D

I actually have a couple of traditional flint and steel kits I keep in Altoids tins.  Starting a fire with traditional flint and steel actually is pretty easy.  You do have to keep char cloth in your tinder box.  It works easy if you put your char cloth on the flint and not try to place it down and put sparks to it that way.

I love that half-penny, Benner. That's a beauty. You can't give anymore character into a lighter than that. Sweet! (we need a thumb's-up icon!)

It certainly has character.  :)  It was surprisingly cheap as well.

You see many like it on ebay, but not as unique as this one.  Most are clearly mass made as well.
I'm back!!

All I have is a small disposable cricket lighter.
I have a lighter question if my cheapo lighter got soak in water if I wipe the water off will it work again? to cheap to try it on my lighter. :)
Multitools are the best thing that happened to mankind since the invention of the wheel!
