the inherent weakness of the Hudson Bay tobacco tin is the glass lens, I place a thin piece of leather to protect mine and only carry 'soft' items in the tin, putting hard items such as strikers and flint in a separate tin. Good review mate.
I did a video on it about five years ago its made by Swiss Bianco based on a 93mm Victorinox Farmer. Search UA-cam under Swiss Bianco Victorinox Farmer Fire Steel its a great bit of kit regards Mike
Looks like a great setup. Happy to see it fits in our roll up pouch
It also fits perfectly sideways in your ditty bags I have an orange one it might get shortened be harder for me to leave behind

I've never seen your SAK striker, very interesting, is it a custom build?

Hi thank you for replying. I checked the other video & I think I will just have to make one for myself. All the best Smithy.
@@johnsmith-hm2vk a High carbon steel file makes a great flint striker
@@kisbushcraftdownunder Thank you for that tip I will see if I can attach a piece to the back of a SAK. Smithy
You got a link for that pouch?
Made in the USA by PNW bush craft it’s the 10 cm one they make three different sizes
I'd add a stick of fatwood
Good idea 👍I have some tucked away somewhere regards Mike
