the idea of igniting the bomb without a lighter took a while to figure out. Without lighter, we go back to matches. But trying to light a match while running is pretty hard. then I remembered seeing Samurai X where you got a bad guy light a bomb with two rings at the fingers. Seen it long time ago. cant remember. So, I've implemented that using one ring as iron and one ring as a flint. the action looks slick. But will it works in real life? i think that's debatable.
That's pretty cool honestly. I like it, and I can think of a few ways to make it work. High carbon steel (maybe alloyed with magnesium or something) with the wick covered in an accelerant would do the trick.
Flint and steel only works because flint is actually harder than steel. However, it is easier to break. So this knocks pieces of the steel off, which ignites. The higher carbon steel ignites more easily.
