The product name speaks for itself, but I had doubts about its effectiveness. However, it turned out that I am pleasantly surprised. It fits securely in the hand, and its size makes it comfortable to use, which is missing in smaller models. It generates a lot of sparks with a single use.

Za-Pas Mig-Mag Flint - Pink
A flint that generates an intense stream of sparks, allowing you to light a fire quickly and effectively. It is perfect for camping and outdoor trips, as well as in emergency situations. With it, you can light a gas stove, a camping stove, or a campfire, which will provide warmth and allow you to prepare a meal away from home.
Strong rod and stainless steel spark igniter
The 9.5 x 72 mm rod provides a larger surface area for striking sparks (compared to smaller models), allowing you to start a fire up to 3000 times. The fire starter is made of high-quality stainless steel, hardened to a hardness of 56-58 HRC, and its two curved edges are designed to generate sparks. Just two strokes produce sparks with a temperature of 3000 degrees Celsius, which, when in contact with prepared kindling, will allow you to start a fire even in difficult conditions, such as severe frost or rain.
Small size and safety cable
The compact dimensions of the flint make it easy to fit in a trouser pocket or backpack. The set includes a durable safety cord to protect the elements from getting lost.

In my opinion, this is currently the best fire starter available on the market. I could end my review here, but it really is worth paying the price, because with good tinder it lights instantly and the number of sparks is truly impressive.
-
Encouraged by reviews from the internet and YouTube, I decided to make the purchase, although I wasn't completely convinced if it was really the 'best firesteel'. After trying it at home, I have to admit that it does indeed produce quite a lot of sparks. I will test it during my next opportunity to light a campfire outdoors. Additionally, it's a product from a Polish brand, which is a plus. The firesteel now goes into my essential fire kit, which I always have in my backpack.

This fire starter is highly rated by people connected with forestry. In my opinion, if used correctly, it does not differ much from products like LMF. However, it is quite sturdy; you can see you’re paying for quality. I am satisfied with the purchase.
-
In six months of regular use, the product has never let me down. The sparks are excellent, even someone with no experience can easily start a campfire with it. The length of the paracord is sufficient, unless someone has exceptionally high requirements. I definitely recommend it!
-
I believe, like many others in the survival and bushcraft community, that this is currently the best fire starter available on the market. A particular advantage is the striker – it has two sharp teeth and generates plenty of sparks. The rod itself also looks great. Its large diameter and length are huge advantages. Of course, the price is quite high, but a fire starter is not something you buy often, and the model from Za-Pas will last a really long time.
-
This is one of the best, if not the best, firesteels on the market – solid, comfortable to use, and the larger size only makes it easier to handle. In my opinion, it should be in every EDC kit.
-
The Polish product is truly a solid choice. The fire starter generates a strong spark, the scraper is excellently made and has two sharp edges. The thick rod and comfortable handles make using the set very convenient. In my opinion, this is currently the best fire starter on the market. The price may not be the lowest, but it’s something you buy for years. I wholeheartedly recommend it!
-
I bought this as a replacement after losing my Wildo fire starter. After the first attempt at starting a fire, I can say that if I had to choose, I would just go for whichever one is cheaper at the time.
-
It creates great sparks, it really impresses. It definitely surpasses the standard Chinese versions. The price is a little high, but it's probably worth it. An extra plus for the choice of colours. I deduct one star for the price.
-
Durable firestarter with a wide, long rod and a comfortable striker – great quality. Additionally, I’m pleased that it comes from a Polish manufacturer.
-
The Za-Pas Mig-Mag fire starter is solid and reliable. It produces a lot of sparks even in tough conditions and is easy to use. It works perfectly for survival, camping, or field expeditions.
-
This is a solid and reliable tool that works great in the field. Its sturdy construction and the large number of sparks it generates make this firestarter one of the best available in Poland. If you need a proven tool for starting a fire, it's definitely worth investing in. I recommend it.
-
I've been using the Za-Pas fire starter and I'm very satisfied. It produces strong sparks, so even in tougher conditions it's easy to light a fire. It's small, durable, and convenient for transport—a great choice for camping and expeditions.

Great and solid firesteel, additionally made in Poland, and costs as much as the competition from China. I think it offers the best quality-to-price ratio. Good because it's local!
