Easy button is Track of the Wolf...Tom Fuller flints.

Heritage products you get more usable flints than from Track of the Wolf a lot of Tracks have a hump making them hard to use.Heritage are a little more but they send 13 instead of 12

track of the wolf, October country, Buffalo Arms, dixie gun works all sell the good ones.

I usually use track of the wolf for flints.
