Firesteel - Emergency Fire Starter - Army Model

This foolproof fire starter was originally developed for the Swedish Department of Defense. The Army version of the Firesteel is used by armed forces all over the globe. A must for any survival kit, the firesteel works flawlessly wet as well as it does dry. It produces a 3000°C (5,500°F) spark and lasts for a minimum of 12,000 strikes. You can use it to light campfires, backpacking stoves, gas-barbeques and because the spark is so bright, it can be used as an emergency signal. The Light My Fire Firesteel is so light and compact, you can carry it in your pocket, attach it to a backpack, pack it in a first-aid kit or wear it around your neck. The Army model fire starter has become essential gear for many backpackers, campers, hunters, fishermen, survivalists and rescue teams.
