The blades could also be used to strike your flint rod with.
speaking of using a hacksaw blade for your flint... does a hacksaw blade work that much better than the striker that comes with it?
I have tied both and they both work well, the hacksaw blade leaves bigger scars on the rod, but it has other uses. the striker works very well (it was made for that sole reason) but the hacksaw blade's multifunction-ness makes it better for your PSK when space and weight are critical
