  • Our FireSteel.com Micro model rods are 3/32" in diameter x 2" long. These are about the size of a wooden match (Magnesium bar, caliper, moss and bits of bark not included.)
  • Measuring two inches long and 3/32 of an inch in diameter, this is the smallest FireSteel.com FireSteel available. I don't think it's possible to make them any smaller! Perfect for mini survival and emergency kits!

Description

The FireSteel.com Micro FireSteel™ is is our smallest FireSteel Rod.  The rod is ultra thin - only 3/32 of an inch in diameter, two inches long, and weighs just 0.053 of an ounce.  Put another way, there are over 300 Micro FireSteel.com FireSteels in every pound!

Made of the same special high sparking ferrocerium formula used by all of its larger FireSteel.com FireSteel relatives, the Micro FireSteel™ can be utilized to make fires when space is at an absolute premium.

Because it is very thin, extra care is needed when scraping it.*

*THIS ROD IS VERY THIN AND NOT RECOMMENDED FOR HEAVY USE.  FOR VERY SMALL SURVIVAL KITS I RECOMMEND THE MINIATURE FIRESTEELS OR THE PUP FIRESTEELS.

    Perfect Addition to Swiss Army Knives

    Posted by Tom on Nov 2nd 2024

    I purchased these to pair with my various SAKs. They will fit in all of the cork screws together with a littl tinder , or depending on the model of SAK they will fit under one or more of the various tools. On the Ranger 78/79 it just drops in under the bottle opener and can opener. Great addition and emergency backup to make the SAK even better.

    FireSteel for Swiss Army knife

    Posted by James on Oct 30th 2024

    If you want a firesteel for a Swiss champ but don’t like the idea of giving up one of your tools for the pricey rods offered by other companies. The 3/32 rod fits perfectly under the fish scaler on the Swiss champ!

    Great little rods! Please never stop selling.

    Posted by David Deutsch on Nov 12th 2023

    I saw the price went up slightly. Still good pricing as I cannot find this size around domestically. Rods work well! You need to apply slight pressure to get heavy sparks but that’s expected. No globs but long lasting and accurate size I am happy with. Thanks!

    Perfect Size and Use

    Posted by Greg Dreelin on Nov 28th 2022

    I needed something that was small enough to fit in mini Altoids case and these worked perfect. I did a test of them over the weekend and got a good spark to start a fire outdoors. Great product!

    Potential of lots of combinations with your existing gear. I glued it to my sheath and it produced showers of sparks.
