10 PCS Fire Starter Rod Magnesium Rod - Ferrocerium Flint Premium Lighter 8x0.8cm - Glow in The Dark Survival Tool Kit for Outdoor Camping

I bought these to help teach our local youth group some fire starting skills. I had each boy tie a snake knot lanyard out of paracord and they hooked the metal scraper to the lanyard before tying an overhand knot. They worked really well. The boys were able to get their own fires started with some advice and guidance from the leaders. These are big compared to the dinky little one I had as a boy scout. They will last a long time and be good for many fires. This pack of 10 was cheap compared to an individual one with a lanyard and scraper. Easy to use and effective at starting fires!

Good spark for the value. Once you get the paint off it works very well. The Paint protects it so just give it a few strikes to clear it off. I have purchased 5 packages for some projects to sell, never failed to work. good product. if you are having trouble getting sparks try a different edge, some work better than others but the rods are good.

Exactly the size I was looking for. Purchased as backup for the white river ursus cub sheath and it fits like a glove. Throws good sparks. I added a paracord lanyard to secure it to the sheath, also makes a good handle to grab when in use.

I bought these to put together fire kits for a class I was teaching. They put out better sparks than I was expecting and would buy them again!

Ils sont très gros et fonctionnel
