Charlie Miller Fire Making Set

Charlie Miller makes some neat stuff. A few years ago I was visiting with Art Riser at the CLA Show when Charlie walked in. Art said, "Let's see what Charlie brought. If he has anything to sell, it will quickly be sold." So we shook hands with Charlie and inquired as to anything he had to sell. He reached into his pocket and pulled out this little tinderbox and striker set. When he named the price, I bought it.

The brass box measures 2-3/4 X 1-3/4 X 3/4 thick. It has a spring catch and a hinge on the lid. The striker measures 1-7/8 inches long and throws a great shower of sparks.
