    Perfect size to stash for a great price.

    Posted by Unknown on Dec 12th 2012

    These are absolutely the best size on this website if you want to make sure you always have a reliable fire starting method. They are perfect to place inside a strand of paracord or even put in the stock of a .22. They fit just about everywhere, and for the price there's no reason not to buy a bunch and put them in all your jackets bags kits and other assorted gear items.

    Just got both mini steels and the work excellent! Once you get this little beast going it just rains sparks where you need them the most! I had no trouble holding it, despite its size, and it fits excellent in my Survival Capsule. Thanks!

    Small but POWERFUL!!!

    Posted by Carl on Jul 23rd 2012

    It's bigger than expected(because we don't use inch as units). Though small, the spark is BIGGER than any one I bought before!! A little bit hard to hold, but great for small packs.

    small but usable

    Posted by Unknown on Jun 20th 2012

    Like others have said, it works but you need to be good at it. Holding it with my multitool while striking it with my knife produces the most sparks. Since it produces less sparks, it really helps to have better tinder. Vaseline coated cotton balls or dryer lint light the first dry, natural material takes more work. I keep these taped to my pill bottles of vaseline coated cotton balls as a back-up while hunting or fishing.
