These matches are also available in a single pack, but the set of three is much better value. The matches themselves are fine and well protected from moisture.

Review summary
Survival matches supplied in compact, waterproof containers are highly regarded by users. Reviews emphasise their convenience for outings, camping, and everyday carry (EDC). Main advantages include a sturdy, moisture-resistant case that can be refilled and is easy to carry, together with practical protection for the matches. Most matches light easily on rough surfaces and retain quality even after long storage periods. Some drawbacks mentioned are relatively high price, short burn time, occasional brittleness, or difficulty striking on the included surface. Nevertheless, the majority of users recommend these matches as a dependable emergency fire source and a practical addition to any outdoor kit.

I bought these matches. Apart from the fact that they are indeed hermetically packed, inside there are just ordinary, short-ended matches. Honestly, it's a bit disappointing :-( Maybe they're suitable for survival, but they probably wouldn't withstand an assault :-(
-
They may not be the cheapest matches, but thanks to the sealed packaging, there’s no risk of them getting wet. I keep them in all the backpacks I take outdoors. I highly recommend them.
-
The biggest advantage is the packaging – it's small, very practical, and easily fits almost anywhere, whether in the smallest organiser, or a trouser, hoodie or jacket pocket. It doesn't get in the way when carried. I haven't checked yet whether it's waterproof, but the lid is missing a rubber gasket. The matches inside look completely ordinary and don’t have an extra amount of combustible material. Maybe that's due to their intended use – these aren’t storm matches, but survival matches, so the box is the most well-thought-out feature. The external striker is very rough and sometimes scrapes off a large part of the match before it lights – especially when the air is very humid.
-
The matches do their job well. Stored in a sealed box, they withstood rain showers without any problems. They are small in size, so it's easy to stash them practically anywhere. I definitely recommend them.
-
I purchased these as a cheaper alternative to my storm proof matches which are more than twice the price. I just needed something to light my alcohol stove in cold weather. I really like the small little tub they come in it's made carrying them easy and the striker works well also - very happy with my purchase.
-
Matches in a convenient box that effectively protects them from moisture. They're easy to light, even after long-term storage. It's worth having them on hand just in case.
-
The matches were bought a long time ago, but for a long while they just lay at the bottom of my backpack during mountain trips. Recently I finally decided to test them, and despite the difficult conditions they were in, they lit without any problems.
-
I have used these matches several times and have not encountered any difficulties; they performed well in moderate weather. Overall, I am satisfied. When travelling, it is better to have them with you than not to have them.
-
Great matches! They should always be at hand at home or in your bag. Small box with side striker. Good purchase and express delivery. Worth buying, I recommend!
-
Survival matches 20 pieces in a 3-pack, sealed in a tight plastic container with a striker, are not typically stormproof, but they work well. They are very small and light, so you can easily store them just in case.
-
Bought for emergencies. The price is a bit high, but the quality makes up for it. Excellent protection against getting wet, can be attached to your keys. Fun fact: my pack had 21 matches instead of the 20 stated in the description – an extra plus.
-
Maybe the price isn't the lowest, but they do their job perfectly. Thanks to the packaging, they don't get damp and are easy to light. A must-have for every trip or camping expedition.
-
Small, convenient packaging is perfect as EDC, you can always have it with you. However, the striker is a bit too rough and wears down the head of the match, so I stuck a piece from a regular box and now it's fine.
-
I definitely recommend always having such matches to hand! Great that Military has such accessories. Highly recommended, you never know when they’ll come in handy – it’s worth having these in your kit.
