FireSteel Armageddon

I recently ordered this item, and paid by money order. I thought I paid the correct amount, but Ron found a cheaper means of shipping, and included a Pup firesteel in my order as a second item. It was a very pleasant surprise to see the second ferro rod in with my order. I used that Pup firesteel to introduce a friend of mine from work to the world of wilderness self-reliance.

Great product, works as advertized

This tool is incredibly important to a survival situation. I have them everywhere I might be. I'd hate to get caught out without one

I BOUGHT THESE TO ADD TO MY (BOB) BUSHCRAFT KNIFE AND MY USB (URBAN SURVIVAL BAG). I HAVE FOUND FIRE STEEL.COM STEELS ARE THE BEST AND THE BEST DEAL ALL AROUND.

Buying blank rods and making my own handles from wood and screw driver handles as a hobby.

I ordered 2 of the 3/8X6 Armageddon Steels. For me, the extra length allows for a longer / larger homemade 3 inch handle and 3 inches of shaft for sparking. Something to consider if your hands are "more mature" like mine. Firesteel rods surpass "Swedish / Euro" steels in my opinion because they seem to have a higher Magnesium content (the shower of sparks lasts longer)...they are slightly softer in my opinion which makes them easier to spark...and...produce more sparks. With practice one can also learn to "shave" filings into ones tinder bundle prior to ignition with by sparking. These are the best...don't waste your time with other stuff.

It's a badass firesteel!

I make custom handled ferro rods, and these are great for my projects. Good deal!

My firesteel Armageddon 4.0 is an awesome tool! This will ignite proper tinder every time with just a strike or two. I use it to light my gas grill as well. Being weatherproof and almost endless is piece of mind in the outdoors!
