FireSteel.com is a merchant in good standing
This is the excellent Armageddon FireSteel.com FireSteel combined with our special Super Scraper, lanyard, and a 3/8 x 3 inch rod made of soft magnesium.
To use the magnesium as tinder, simply scrape a small pile of shavings off the soft magnesium rod. When a spark from the FireSteel hits the magnesium, the magnesium will easily catch on fire and burn at a temperature of 4000 degrees F (2200 °C). This can then be used to ingnite your natural tinder
A big advantage to carrying a piece of magnesium for tinder is that it will not become damp or wet.
Another great combination for starting fires under just about any conditions.

I have one of those so called fire starters, without naming names, the one that has a red little handle, gives out sparks but nothing andI mean nothing compared to this fire steel!
My family counts on me coming home safe from a survival trip, camping, fishing, hunting and what ever else trip i go on, and with this product i have no worries about doing just that, thanks FireSteel.com for making a awesome product!

The first thing I did when I got it in the mail was try it. I knew the basic principle and attempted before reading the instructions. I scraped off a small amount of magnesium and attempted to spark it off, but I wasn't getting a spark of the firesteel. I then read the instructions and realized the black coating needed to be scraped off first, duh, lol. So I scraped it off and got some very impressive sparks once I got the coating off.
I started the magnesium with minimal effort and put some tinder on it. I had a little fire going very quickly. I have never attempted to do this before and I had a fire going in less than 5 minutes.
Awesome product! Thank you.

Just wanted to send you a note and thank you for a great product. Within 20 minutes of opening my firesteel all four of my children ages 14, 12, 10, and 8 had all started a fire using your product and a cotton ball. None of them had ever attempted to do this before, it was so easy! Great product, thank again.

Out of the 5-pack of all sizes of firesteels the Armageddon is my favorite size firesteel. They are all good, but this one works best for me, carry it everywhere.

I wanted to replace my old mag bar and firesteel so bought several of these firesteel.com firesteels with magnesium. Pleasantly surprised by the big sparks these give and the magnesium helps damp material to catch on fire.
Will be ordering more for gifts this holiday.

Great product and timely arrival. Get the super scraper for some serious sparks! And as always, learn your gear before you rely on it.

The magnesium is really soft and easy to scrape off into a small pile. Mix in some small pieces of wood shavings, leaves, or dry pine needles.
One spark from my FireSteel.com firesteel and the pile went up in flames. First try! It's fun!
