Very nice matches for when it's windy or raining. There's plenty of matches but I use them when normal matches aren't working. Comes with a little bit of cotton to help light the fire which is nice.
-
The matchbox was carefully packaged and looks aesthetically pleasing. The matches seem sturdy and have plenty of material for ignition. The set includes cotton, and the striking surface has been placed in several spots both inside and outside the box. Bought for emergencies and hopefully I will never need it.
-
With these storm matches, you can reliably and safely start a fire in almost any conditions. They are specifically designed to withstand even extreme weather conditions. The storage container also keeps the entire set dry. I recommend it!
-
Great matches. They don't absorb water, both the sticks and the striking surface stay dry after being submerged. They are solid, have a lot of material to burn, and they have never gone out on me in the rain.
-
There is a 'perfect match' label on the packaging and indeed, these matches are truly perfect. They have plenty of striking material, and the cap with a seal protects the contents very well. Additionally, inside the container there is a spare striker placed under the lid, which will always remain dry, even after contact with water. I am fully satisfied with the purchase.

The box of matches was carefully packaged and looks aesthetically pleasing. The matches are sturdy and have plenty of striking material. The set includes cotton wool, and the striking surface is placed on several surfaces both inside and outside the box.
-
Great storm matches, they have a lot of igniting substance. The packaging is solid and hard to damage. Additionally, there is cotton wool inside, which is a huge advantage.
-
Excellent quality match that works very well in water and in humid situations. The case is sturdy and well sealed, although a little heavier than its slightly cheaper counterpart on the site. I recommend supplementing it with an ignition device to start the fire.
-
Good quality matchstick and case as well. Heavier than the equivalent sold on the site a bit cheaper but seems more robust. I recommend taking some material to start a fire for example in the cap.
-
I bought these matches as a backup fire source, to complement my firesteel. I especially appreciate the solid, waterproof container. The extra striker under the cap is a great solution. The matches burn long enough. I showed my mother-in-law how they work—she was impressed that they didn't go out even after being thrown into water.
-
Great storm matches, burn for a long time. In my set, the stick sticks out a bit so you have to be careful with your hands, but it also means they burn longer. They ignite a bit weakly, but with the extra strikers they work.
-
Amazing. They light up quickly and easily. The instant flame is enough to ignite anything you need. They don't go out from just anything. The packaging is very tight—you need to be careful not to crush it, since it's just plastic. If it breaks, you should move the matches into a plastic bag.
-
Great storm matches. They contain a lot of igniting substance. The container is durable, not easily damaged. The extra cotton inside is a huge plus.
-
Compact, sealed package with strong matches inside. They burn excellently, although they burn out rather quickly. The price is relatively high, and 25 pieces is not a large quantity.
