Light My Fire Swedish Flint Fire Starter Ferro Rod Survival Tools SCOUT | Fire Steel Bushcraft Camping Gear | Flint and Steel Fire Starter Kit 2-in-1 Fire Flint and Striker 3,000 Strikes

These are almost always one of the most expensive models but there is good reason for that. The ergonomic grips make them very easy to master whether young or old. We had children as young as 5 have success with lighting fires and also 70+ year old. They guarantees to last 10,000 strikes and will do as long as you show people what one good strike looks like. They can be thin so if people striking from half way I have had them wear uneventfully and snap in middle. But to make sure beginners ha e success and what to build interest further, these (along with some good demonstration/instruction) will definitely bring them success. Work when wet. Great item. They could do with slightly longer cords. If you had big hands then not always enable and easier distance. But we replaced the cords with longer high visibility reflective paracord so that easier to use and if anyone dropped one in low light we could fine easier with a torch. You wont regret one of these

It does what it says on the tin (box) a fire starter for the outdoors, one of the better ferro rods, durable, the red means you do not loose it (or leave it behind) in the woods. If you need one, get this one!

For some reason, even the unworn painted part of the rod, they corrode when left for long periods. I think it is slight moisture or perhaps they don’t like being near other ferro rods but they corrode or oxidise creating deep pits in the rod. Ever worked out why but they are still very good. They are very comfortable and create a nice shower of sparks. I have quite a few of them in various sizes and they all perform excellent. There are two types of ferro rod that I have come across, first is these Light my Fire type that are very hard metal and require only a light slow scratch to create sparks and the second is the softer ones that require a fast hard scratch. Both require a good striker or you get nowhere fast. Now the difference is that the softer ones create big fat globules of burning metal and are excellent at lighting damp tinder whereas the LMF hard type create a lot of sparks that are far smaller snd can require batheing the tinder in sparks to light. Both are really useful depending on the weather or tinder. I cannot say which I prefer as they both work really well.

Simple well made striker. Great small gift / stocking filler for dad.

Works really good .came as described

Very good quality sparks

Bought as a 'solid' back up to my mini-Bic lighter. I purposely selected this on the basis of it being compact and lightweight. I only received this last night (thank you, quick delivery) and have already used it. Once the protective coating has been removed via approx 20 'strokes' the rod chucks out an impressive array of sparks. It is compact, as known - and I have large hands (glove size 14 - very hard to find) so I would not want to use this for my primary source of ignition but people with smaller hands will not have this issue. The striker also looks a little flimsy but I can always use my pocket knife (etc) as an alternative striker. As I bought this as a back up I am comfortable.

Not used it yet but it is well made with a back-up whistle (not as loud as a proper whistle) and it only weighs 25g. If you want an ultralight kit list then this is the lightest I could find.

iş yapar, anahtarlık yaptım, sürekli yanımda.

Mycket bra produkt

Hög kvalitet och gör vad den ska!

Mejor de lo esperado, tamaño pequeño para meter dentro de una olla pequeña, hace muy buena chispa y el silbato es un plus, me a gustado mucho
