FireSteel Pup

Two pieces of bicycle inner tube and one of these make a perfect addition to any knife sheath. Slip the inner tube over the sheath, then the second piece of inner tube over that. Slide the firesteel in between, and it will hold it in place. Perfect for emergency fire starting.

Exactly as described: tiny enough to fit in the corner of a wallet business card pocket. prompt shipping. excellent emergency fire starter.

I have had this little guy for over a year now and I have started hundreds of fires with the same one. It continues to give me all the sparks I need to light any tinder that I put in front of it. I wear this little guy around my neck everyday and I do not leave home without it. A must for everyone to have.

You can get a larger rod, but this little guy is all you really need. I know because I also have the Armaggedon. Yes, a larger rod is easier to use, but this Pup can be packed almost anywhere. I packed a pup in a small waterproof capsule that also contains tinder (cotton ball with petroleum jelly). I carry the scraper on the outside. The whole setup costs less than $6. Side note, the shipping is fast and packaging is great.

Small but handy firesteel for making fire in an emergency. As Jebby writes, it throws very hot sparks even though it is a small firesteel

You have an outstanding good and well structured site. I enjoyed browsing through it. Last week I purchased one of your FireSteel Pup Tubes for my keyring, which I carry everywhere. Easy to start a fire with this device, once you learn how - a few scrapes and the sparks fly! Now I know I can always start a fire when I need one no matter what. 5 thumbs up!

I needed a small but good quality firesteel for a mini survival kit I was making. Bought this 3/16ths inch firesteel and am not disappointed - this thing throws really good sparks for its size! 5 stars

I've been using firesteels from Ron for several years. I have to say his are the best and recommend them to all my friends. Cheers

This firesteel does not fall short of my expectations. As with all of my firesteel.com firesteels it is good. Thank you Ron Fontaine for providing top quality gear at such great prices.
