Very good fire starter, works well. An important advantage is the rod protection when folded. Thanks to the distinct colour, it is easy to find in grass or a backpack. I definitely recommend this product.
A handy, collapsible flint ferrocerium with a steel sparkler, giving a large sheaf of sparks. With its help you can light, for example, a gas stove, a tourist stove or a campfire, which is a source of heat and allows you to prepare a meal away from home. It will prove useful in blackout emergency situations and during camping or hiking.
The flint ferrocerium works by vigorously abrading the flint rod with the sharp edge of the sparkler. By doing so, the cerium contained in the rod oxidizes and spontaneously ignites. One movement with the sparkler allows sparks to be produced at a temperature of 3000 st. C, which falling on a previously prepared fire starter will produce a flame even in severe frost or heavy rain. The rod of the flint is sufficient for 12,000 kindling.
At the same time as the flint, the set includes a sparking rod in the form of a metal plate. Thanks to its small size, the whole thing, when folded, will fit into a trousers pocket, a kidney or a backpack.

This is my first fire starter and it works really well. A plus is the rod's protection when folded and the small overall size. According to the manufacturer, it lasts for 12,000 fires. For this price, it's definitely worth buying.

The fire starter effectively fulfils its function. When folded, the ferrocerium rod is well protected, which is a big advantage. The bright colour makes it easy to find in a backpack or in the grass.

Small, lightweight and very effective at lighting fires. A big plus is its visible colour, making it easy to find if dropped. For this price it's a great choice – worth trying.
