Great fire starter, perfect for lighting a gas stove or kindling. It's thick, long enough, and will probably last for many years. The price is very attractive.
Badger Outdoor Fire Rod Flint
Fire Rod flint is a practical and handy tool for lighting a fire quickly and efficiently. Thanks to its simplicity and ability to generate an intense stream of sparks, it is an ideal choice for camping, survival trips or emergency situations. It allows you to easily light a campfire, start a hiking or gas stove, providing a reliable source of heat and allowing you to prepare meals in the field.
Ferrocerium - a reliable source of fire
The flint uses a solid ferrocerium rod - a material that is a special metal alloy - with a length of 67 mm and a diameter of 8 mm, which guarantees long life and easy handling. Just one vigorous pull of the attached spark igniter produces a dense stream of sparks, which effectively ignites the prepared fire starter. This action is possible due to the oxidation of cerium contained in the rod, which leads to its self-ignition.
The rod generates sparks with a temperature of 3000 degrees C, which makes it possible to effectively light a fire even in the rain or in low temperatures.
Easy to use, Spark igniter with bottle opener
The set includes a metal spark igniter in the form of a serrated plate, which not only effectively generates sparks, but also acts as a bottle opener. This practical solution increases its versatility in the field.
The small size of the flint allows easy storage - it fits in a trousers pocket, a backpack compartment or a small bag. Using the tool is comfortable both with gloves and bare hands, making it practical for any situation.

Very nice firestarter, solid handle, produces lots of sparks, perfect for trips to the forest, useful for any tourist. Highly recommended for any trip. The striker works excellently after sharpening.
-
Handy and good flint. Operation is simple, although after purchase you need to scrape off the protective layer to start making fire. I recommend it!
-
The fire starter is very good and easy to use, although at first it's covered with a protective black coating, which you need to remove in order to strike sparks. I definitely recommend it!

The Badger Outdoor Fire Rod firesteel works flawlessly :) Seems well made, so should be durable, and for this price, you can’t expect more.

Unfortunately, I have to take away one star due to the included striker – it’s poor. However, the firestarter itself works very well. Like others, I recommend using your own steel knife with the firestarter, then it’s great. I recommend it, although in my opinion the striker could be better.

Average quality, you need to put in some effort to get decent sparks. However, it's light and cheap. I tried a few times, it slips a bit in the hands during use.

Very good fire striker at a reasonable price. It went into my emergency backpacks, but also works great for occasional campfires.

The firesteel is well made, though for me it could be longer as it takes some practice to light a campfire. Its small size means it fits anywhere easily.
