Armageddon Junior
I purchased an armageddon junior weeks ago, its a very thick and solid firesteel. I have used it a few times just to test it and see if it can take some abuse. I left it in a bucket of water outside, it was more like slush, and pulled the fire steel out and in two scrapes it was rockin and rollin. I purchased it with the lanyard and super scraper, which was an awesome package. Quality and price are amazing. Just an addition, I live in kansas, and recieved my steels in 3 days. Awesome customer service!

Great product
Great spark from a nice compact starter. Best I've had. Great for a backup or small kit.

It WORKS!
Big sparks, lit cotton ball on 1st try 4 times in row. Fast shipping also, ordered on Thursday and arrived the following Monday.

Lots of sparks!
Once we got the black coating scraped off we had to work a bit on technique for getting really big sparks. You have to hold the scraper at the right angle. But once you get it, it's easy and it makes nice big sparks. I am happy to have it with the magnesium conveniently attached as I will always have a convenient firestarter

Simply the BEST.
Very fast shipping, my 9year old daughter really loves it. I'm crazy about it. itching to order more for upcoming camping. we tried it on dryer lint, cotton balls, no Vaseline at first, then with Vaseline. all work without a problem. Just amazing.. cant wait to get some more... actually I have put some more in the shopping cart..
