Easy button is Track of the Wolf...Tom Fuller flints.
Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.

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

if all you have ever used was TC's cut flints you are in for a surprise. a pleasant one. knapped flints are where its at! track of the wolf, October country, Buffalo Arms, dixie gun works all sell the good ones.

Chipped English. Try calling Jim at Fort Chambers in Shippensburg PA. Is Jim still hanging in there? Been a couple years since I've been up there.

I usually use track of the wolf for flints.
