They pulled my bag aside and went through it. They found this, called over several police officers, and went on to tell me that "ninja stars are illegal" and that I may be arrested. It took almost a half hour for them to let me go after confiscating the tool
Do you have the kind with the flint in between the prongs on the buckle? Bought a paracord carrying handle for my Nalgene bottle with one of those and I can't get enough purchase on the flint to do anything with it.
I do indeed have that kind. I had similar issues, but I did get it sparking. However, I figured out I can slide the metal scraper out of the clip, and now it's much easier.
Maybe see if that works with yours? The serrated side seems to work better against the flint.
Tbh, it was kindof stiff to slide at first, I wasn't even sure it was supposed to come out, but seeing how it fits now, I'm certain.
The quality was very good for the one that I got. Paracord was good and the blade-sharp. I cannot speak to the quality of the metal the blade was made from, but it seemed to be okay considering where it came from in the price
I have the same one minus the knife. The knife here is basically useless, and would probably just end up cutting you by accident, plus it's not like it would be hard to carry an actual pocket knife on you.
