I bought 3 French amber, 3/4" flints from one individual for $9.00+tax. I've seen better looking shale than most of the flints I looked at. That was on Friday, and it started Thurs. so I was probably a day late.

I guess I could call
I probably have 18-20 amber and English flints on hand just trying to stockpile more in case they disappear.
I may try knapping my own but that's a whole nuther thing.

But I wasn't too impressed with his English flints. I might have gotten a couple of sparks out of each trigger pull. He is in Washington.
My next place to look would be The Gun Works in Springfield, OR.

Ordered 5/8" from heritage products and was just told they are also out of stock.
I can order a grand total of 1 flint from kibler. Not happening.
All the others suppliers are as much at 12-14$ for 2 FA flints.
Man what the hell is going on.
I see folks knapping there own but a flint rock ain't cheap either .
I may have to build a matchlock . Until rope is unavailable
Done crying .
