    Maybe not the place to discuss, but tritium vials would be so labor intensive on the production end that it'd be an expensive finished piece, right? Small batch custom.runs at best. And a firesteel would need a retainer, which would.just make the opener chunky and IMO a little bit novelty. Enough Bear Grylls type of junk in the outdoors market. I think the current BS line up is good for a fairly new start up. I don't see that type of addition being a lasting product line or the sign of a craft made product like it is currently. Expansion would be great, though, if done well and in a serious direction. Engraving and coatings are cost effective ways to expand and minor in production risk.

    Your right. Found it in the vendor section. Put up a small thread.

    Tritium, same cutouts could be used , just drop the trit in there and glue, UV cure.

    Foresteel, a simple cutout on one of the edges then heavy duty adhesive. They make the fire steel in thin rods too.

    On some of the EDC forums, this stuff, anything handmade with options for customizations sells like crazy.

    Sorry, there was a time when I was making small custom goods with these things I mentioned in them.
