FireSteel Scout

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!

Very good quality sparks

Works really good .came as described

I would prefer a longer ferro rod personally as your hands can get in the way of seeing what you're doing. It produces great sparks easily. It is however much harder to light shavings than you think ! This is the scout version which has 3000 strikes and is ideal to practice your technique.

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

Have previously bought a very fancy one of these from etsy and was unimpressed. This one is so easy even my 4 year old got the hang of it in minutes. A great addition to any camping trip.

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.

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
