How do you strike flint?

Flint is a natural occurring stone in the calcedony family. It is a smooth stone and varies in color. To strike sparks from flint and steel you need high carbon steel. Stainless doesn't work. You strike the steel against the flint on top of which a piece of char cloth or other charred material is held. Punk wood can also work as can milkweed ovum, dried mullein leaves and finely sliced mullein pith. The spark actually comes from the steel. They are minute bits of molten metal from the steel. The char or other material catches the spark and begins to smoulder and is placed into a tinder bundle and is blown into flame. Some people refer to a ferrocerrium rod as flint. It isn't. Flint as I said above is a naturaly occurring stone. Flint, chert, jadite, nephrite, quartz and several other stones will also work.
