Fur trade era trade goods

By Mike Ameling

The oval flint strikers (also called fire steel) is one of the most common shapes/styles in North America. They start showing up in trade goods lists in the mid 1700's, and continue into the mid 1800's. It is probably the style taken along by Lewis and Clarke on their Voyage of Discover. Forged fish hooks - with flattened ends instead of eyes. Zigzag canoe awls
