Sorry about that Jon, pop the sparker in the post to us and I will send out a replacement. The one I just tested lit the tinder tab second try. I use my thumb for the striker just like you would with a lighter.

Service rating : Ordering was simple but a technical error meant that the order did not apparently complete. This I double ordered.. That said cancelling one of them was easily done via email..
Product rating : Exactly what I need and well protected for delivery..

Sorry about the technical error, I believe we contacted you when we got the double order and refunded the second payment when you confirmed you only wanted one.

We have had a few glitches with the ordering system lately but it appears to have settled down.

Karesuando Boar Bushcraft Knife in Carbon Fantastic Value - Without Firesteel

  • Customer also reviewed:
  • Trangia Kettle For Series 27
Service
Product

Service rating : person in the shop, took label of a stainless steel bladed knife, and sold it as carbon steel, The guy seens abit of a joker, at custermers expense,
Product rating : Its not carbon steel but stainless,
ITS POSSIBLE TO GET A VERY GOOD EDGE ON IT, BUT IT DOESENT HOLD THE EDGE, THE KNIFE GRIND IS VERY VERY HIGE, GIVEN TOO FINE A ANGLE, WHICH MAKES IT SHARPE. BUT BLUNT VERY QUICK, shame becase the knife feels good, in the hand. The label with details was removed from the box???

Read more
The knife you received is what we received as a carbon blade. If it was wrongly packaged I will be glad to get it exchanged with Karesuando. As I explained when you ordered we only had carbon Boar Knives in stock, you did originally request stainless.
Karesuando knives aren't packaged with any more information than you received, except for stock that we have received since then carrying a generic guarantee card. All they come with is a sticker on the base of the box with the knife code and either K for Carbon or SS for Stainless Steel. Please check the bottom of the box, and let me know the code and the hand written letter.

The characteristics you describe are those of a carbon blade, stainless is hard to sharpen but takes longer to blunt.

Make sure to strop your blade after sharpening and each use to maintain the edge between sharpening.

Bushcraft Knife - Rosewood Handle - A Wright & Son - Made in Sheffield, England

Service
Product

Service rating : The actual service was very quick and efficient
Product rating : The knife itself is very good, but the leather sheath is of very poor quality and not at all what I expected for a knife of this price. The only reason that I haven't returned it for a refund is because the knife is so good, but I will have to have a decent sheath made. The oak handle of the flint and steel fell off whilst I was taking it out of the package!!! Not impressed at all that I had to get out the Araldite to fix it...

Read more
Thanks for the Feedback, we hadn't heard from you before this, so have been unable to do anything about this. Please can you email us a photo of the sheath. If it is faulty then we will send you out a replacement straight away.
As for the firesteel, there were a batch of faulty ones a while ago, we thought they had all been sent back to the distributor, sorry we missed one but I am glad you managed to fix it.
