Uberleben makes decent rods and the Tinderwick is decent, but, you’re right about the striker being crap. They need to not worry about it having a cap lifter, hex wrench, carrot peeler, etc. I’ve also found that a bit of hockey tap makes the striker more comfortable

I like the octagon shape. I used to think they were all the same until I got a Bayite Ferro rod. Now I'm converted. The only time I get those speed bumps is when I use the default hacksaw blade striker... A decent sharp spine like my MK Tribute or Mora Eldris seem to keep it smooth. I'm glad you were able to scrape it out, in the past I've had to put them on the sander lol. Fun video. Thanks for sharing. Stay healthy brother

@@RobEvansWoodsman lol I have a few soft ones like that. Originally it annoyed me when I was trying to look all expert like Mors lol. Now I like them for inclement conditions. I slow scrape off a bunch of metal match material and fast scrape a flare to ignite it like those magnesium blocks. The right tool for the right job, plus I hate to throw away tools lol. Thanks for sharing

I will stick with the LMF as Mors method is my favourite. However I found it really useful to pair with Uberleben Tindarwick, especially in very cold conditions or when lighting wood stoves. Really enjoy your videos, thanks Rob

I got a long thick fero rod from China for £18 about 3 years ago, it's got exactly the same striker as that one, but has a very nicely braided paracord lanyard & works extremely well. Lights first time almost every time 😎

The only problem with a harder ferro rod is they need a very sharp striker to work well. Using a LMF with a spine that's a bit blunt is hopeless. A softer rod is more forgiving in that regard.

Hi Rob, you look to have a good ferro rod there, plenty of long lasting hot sparks coming from that, it's probably worth the money when you consider how much usable rod you get compared to a LMF rod, and I like the idea of flat sufaces to scrape from, as most of mine didn't work at their best until I'd worn a flat on them, if you would be so good as to give us a heads up on how it's doing in a few weeks time, it would be appreciated. Cheers mate, stay safe, best wishe's to you and your's, Stuart UK.

I've heard claims the ridges on the ferro rod come from the angle of the scraper on the rod, they usually say if its at 90° itll cause those ridges but I didnt see you holding the knife at 90° to the rod. Your thoughts?
