About Flint and Steel
Flint and Steel is a tool for starting fires and lighting things. Right-click a solid block to start a fire on it, or use it on TNT, a campfire, a candle, or an unlit nether portal to ignite it.
It has 65 uses before it breaks. That makes it worth keeping for specific jobs like lighting portals, setting off TNT traps, and lighting campfires or candles.
How to get Flint and Steel
You can craft it from one flint and one iron ingot. The recipe is shapeless, so the two ingredients can sit anywhere in the crafting grid.
You can also sometimes find a Flint and Steel in ruined portal chests. That is handy early in a world when you are short on iron.
