The Mil-Tec waterproof match container is an interesting and practical option for protecting matches or tinder from getting wet. The container has a gasket ensuring tightness, and inside there is also a small mirror for signalling.

The Mil-Tec waterproof match container is a sturdy box to which you should add a striking surface and a small amount of cotton wool or other tinder. Inside the cap there is a mirror – it remains to be seen whether it will work as a signalling mirror.

The seal works as it should. A standard lighter won't fit, but it's excellent for matches – just remember to add a protected striker, for example in a zip bag.

This is an imitation of American army containers made in China. The container is tight and protects matches and kindling from moisture well. The firesteel, due to its small size, I treat more as a curiosity than as a practical tool for lighting a fire.

The container is tight and sturdy enough to protect its contents from moisture – it will fit more than just matches. Great for storing matches, but you can’t light them in it, as it lacks a striker. The striker, which contains red phosphorus, glass, and binder, is essential to light a match by striking, which increases the temperature and causes a chemical reaction. Ordinary matches or popular survival ones won’t light from the firestarter in the container or its surface. So if you buy matches, remove or cut out a piece of the striker and store it in the container – then it becomes a practical solution for transport. Without a striker, the accessory is rather useless as you can’t light a match in it – unless you have special ones where the whole surface acts as a striker. Overall, I recommend it, but remember to include a striker inside.

It works, it really is waterproof. It also has many other uses besides storing matches. I broke the mirror myself by accident. Either the firestarter doesn't work or I can't use it properly – but I didn't buy it for the firestarter, so it’s a solid 4 from me.

Great product, not too small, not too big – just right. Durable and cheap, especially when on promotion, it’s hard not to buy several. Highly recommended, 10/10!

A simple container with a screw cap, which I bought to store a few bits and pieces. It serves its purpose well and looks quite presentable.

Simple but effective. A container with an ordinary seal, but actually waterproof (I checked). Ideal not only for matches, but also as a hiding place for cash.

Small, but you can find lots of uses for it, not just for matches. I tested the waterproofness – it easily passed the water test. Highly recommend at this price as a proven stash for small items or money. I bought one as a trial and then seven more.

I use my container to keep a BIC mini lighter and some emergency cash. It could use an eyelet for attaching to a carabiner, but at this price you can’t complain. Excellent as a waterproof box for an organiser – highly recommend.

A good container, you can store a small fire-starting kit or other small things in it. The mirror in the lid is a plus.

In such a tightly screwed container, you can safely store various small items, not just matches, e.g. needles or safety pins – especially during water or land trips.

Small, but can bring joy. Not only for matches, it’s truly watertight – tested after immersion in water. At this price, I highly recommend it as a practical gadget for trips and other uses according to your needs.

Very nice box. I use it for carrying matches with a striker, but it’s also suitable for small items. The mirror is a great idea as an extra. I recommend it!
