The fire starter works excellently. Sparks appear without any difficulties. If you want better results, I recommend using the slightly curved, horizontal part of the striker instead of the serrated edge. The rod is thinner and shorter than those from other manufacturers, but it works flawlessly and deserves the highest rating due to its attractive price.

Badger Outdoor Fire Rod Flint
Fire Rod Flint serves as a practical and convenient tool for igniting fires rapidly and effectively. Its ease of use and capability to produce an intense stream of sparks make it an excellent option for camping, survival expeditions, or emergencies. This tool enables effortless lighting of a campfire, starting a hiking or gas stove, offering a dependable source of heat and allowing for meal preparation in outdoor settings.
Ferrocerium - a reliable source of fire
The flint consists of a robust ferrocerium rod, a unique metal alloy, measuring 67 mm in length and 8 mm in diameter, ensuring durability and effortless use. A firm pull of the attached spark igniter emits a dense stream of sparks, successfully igniting your fire starter. This effect occurs due to the oxidation of cerium within the rod, causing self-ignition.
This rod generates sparks at a temperature of 3000 degrees C, enabling the effective lighting of a fire even in rainy conditions or at 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 pants 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.

The rod has a solid thickness and length, and the striker attracts filings very well – you just have to use the side with the bent metal plate. Thanks to this, you can light a spirit stove or kindling without using much force (even without putting it on the ground), and the number of sparks generated is really large. I can definitely recommend this product.
-
Great fire starter, works perfectly for lighting a gas stove or kindling. It’s thick, long enough, and will probably last for many years. The price is very attractive.
-
Very nice fire starter, solid grip, produces a lot of sparks, great for trips to the forest, useful for every tourist. I highly recommend it for every trip. The striker works great after sharpening.
-
Handy and good fire starter. Easy to use, although you need to scrape off the protective layer after purchase to make fire. Recommend!
-
The fire starter is very good and easy to use, although at first it’s covered with a protective black coating that has to be removed before you can make sparks. I definitely recommend it!
-
The Badger Outdoor Fire Rod works flawlessly :) Seems well-made, so it should be durable, and for this price, you can't expect more.
-
Unfortunately, I have to take away one star because of the included striker – it's bad. However, the fire starter itself works very well. Like others, I recommend using your own steel knife along with the fire starter – then it's great. I recommend it, although in my opinion the striker could be better.
-
The Badger Outdoor Fire Rod is solidly made, has an ergonomic shape, and quickly lights a fire. For a small price, you get a very good product.
-
Average quality, you need to work a bit to get decent sparks. However, it’s lightweight and cheap. I tried a few times, it slips in the hand a bit when using.
-
Simple, yet very good fire starter. I tested it several times and it always did its job. No trouble lighting a campfire. Especially recommend it for this price.
-
The most important thing is that it works. It feels like a solid product. The thick handle fits well in the hand, making it comfortable to use. The striking efficiency is also flawless. Recommended.
-
Badger Outdoor Fire Rod is a fire starter made from durable materials, with an ergonomic shape that allows you to quickly and easily light a fire. It is resistant to adverse weather conditions and will certainly serve for a long time even with frequent outdoor use.
-
Very good fire starter at a reasonable price. It's in the emergency backpacks, but it also works great for lighting a campfire from time to time.
-
The fire starter is solidly made, although for me it could be longer, because it takes a bit of practice to start a fire. However, thanks to its small size, it fits easily anywhere.
