2. Novelty

   Posted by Josh on Feb 13th 2018

   Great little firesteel but little is the keyword. I bought 2 Armageddon’s as well. Small edc or emergency steel. You can’t go wrong with the price. Overall a good buy

3. Big Results in a Little Package

   Posted by Jawfish on Jan 7th 2018

   I bought the 2" rods for use in our EDC kits (altoid regular and smalls) and thought they would make a great "emergency" rod. I like to try whatever I purchase so I know they will work when and if the time comes. WOW! Two inches is small and these are the blanks with no holes or grip. You would think that these would be difficult to use. Not the case. I tried it with and without magnesium (also bought from FireSteel.com) and both times had a fire in 1-2 strikes.
   These little guys strike easily and throw hot, large sparks. Very happy with these and they fit nicely even in the smalls altoid tins.

4. WOW

   Posted by John on Dec 5th 2017

   For such a small rod. WOW! ordered these for x-mas gifts, mounted these in small pieces of antler and started making fire kits. used one rod for all my testing of cotton balls and cotton rounds, fatwood and char cloth. I used it for at least 200 strikes and still have at least 7/8 rod left .. I must say best 1.97 I ever spent , liked them so much I turned around and ordered more and included the embers to try, I'm sure ill like them also. Thank you to Ron and his family.

7. First-Class Pup Ferro Rod

   Posted by D. Scribner on Oct 19th 2016

   I always purchase all the ferro and magnesium rods I use, or give as gifts, from from FireSteel (and have for many years). I will say that I can't think I've every used a ferro rod that has thrown more hot sparks per strike, or been more enjoyable to use or teach others with, than these.
   
   However, high quality ferrocerium and magnesium rods are only a *part* of what you get when you deal with FireSteel. I don't think I have ever received such personal, first-class customer service from any other company I've ever dealt with, and THAT is the reason that keeps me coming back!! Thank you!

8. Will serve my purposes

   Posted by Don on Oct 4th 2016

   I bought the smaller fire steel because I have a larger family and I have to consider price when putting a kit together for five or more people.
   Haven't tested them in the field yet but they appear to have a great deal more spark than other fire steels.
   The shipping was amazingly fast. They arrived at my mailbox less than 48 hours after i submitted my order.
   I couldn't be happier and will make all my purchases here from now on

9. Perfect for an Altoids tin!

   Posted by Gregory Turner on Apr 12th 2016

   I have several firesteels and think they are great. I bought the 3" Firesteel PUPS to carry in my Altoids tin emergency kit. The are small enough in diameter and short enough that they fit perfectly and take very little space. And the 3" length provides a secure grip.

11. Great for the emergency kit

    Posted by Matt in Oklahoma on Oct 10th 2015

    I use these for backup kits placed in a snuff tin with a small lighter, char cloth and a "fire straw" with dryer lint.

15. Have FireSteel.com will travel

    Posted by John E. Roberts on Jun 5th 2014

    The confidence of being able to have a fire relieves a great deal of stress when faced with an unexpected stay in the back country......especially in inclimate weather. These firesteels provide that confidence. The time saved in producing a comforting fire can go towards other life saving activities. I sincerely appreciate the care that this company takes in producing a quality, trustworthy piece of equipment.
    Best Regards

16. perfect size

    Posted by Robert Cook on May 21st 2014

    The pup is a perfect size fire steel to insert into hollowed paracord. I used a small piece and gorilla glued it to the end of the steel and hung it on my key chain as part of my EDC. It worked perfect!! Throws sparks just like other ones I've gotten from Firesteel.com. I really like their products.

    The only thing I question is ? Does this Ron guy ever SLEEP ???

18. Does just what it says

    Posted by Unknown on Mar 2nd 2014

    The pup is exactly what it says and works perfect for the kits I'm making. I also received a hand written note on my receipt which goes a long way with me.

    With the super scraper, these throw a real shower of sparks that lit jute right up.
