FireSteel Armageddon

I have never used this type of fire starter before. However, I tried it out with a striker purchased here and it did make a a good bunch of sparks, It comes coated in black and you have to abrade off the black to get to the steel but the striker does that job for you. I attached the striker and the steel to a cord through the lanyard holes and it looks like a good, compact emergency fire starting kit. For the price, especially, everyone should have this, or similar, in their kit. Fast service.

I really liked this fire steel. Worked great my daughter used it to and was able to start a fire as well.

Top fast service. Perfect size for the old BOB, & having a Layard hole is a big plus! If you can't throw sparks with this look at your technique & try again. I'll be getting some more from these good people.

Though the weather has kept me from testing, the videos I've seen make me happy I got one. Nice neat hole for a cord. Gonna test next hike

Gave these out as gifts. They were well received. So excited to try out, that we started a fire in the chiminea . Wet and damp and lit right up. Great products that shower sparks!

My order was shipped on Saturday and I had my fire steel in my hands on Tuesday.

Throws a ton of sparks. I plan on using the base off some old antlers I have for grips. The shipping was wonderful, literally 3 hours after I placed my order I received an email stating my rods had been processed and were labeled shipped (I ordered these on a Sunday). Would recommend FireSteel.com to anyone and I will be a return customer.

I've used firesteels exclusively for years. These firesteels have replaced all the butane lighters in all my camping gear. The firesteels always work - Year after year. They never leak out. They are limited only by your tinder. They are particularly superb for lighting my coleman stove, or my MS-multifuel, or char-cloth. One strike; fire. I do prefer using the FireSteel Scraper - more than adequate, and using the back of your camp-knife is sometimes awkward. A single 8" lanyard between the firesteel and scraper ensure the two are always together. I highly recommend this product -- I will buy again.

Nice firesteel, long enough to use, short enough to carry. I ordered this one after losing my 1/2 one which was heavy to carry. Thanks for the quick shipping, and a good value for the money product.
