Kit for an all-weather fire starter made of ferrocerium primer. Includes spark scraper and leather strap. 


Simple fire starter for everyone: Safe and effective

With this, even the inexperienced can master the traditional art of creating a fire by striking sparks. A little dry tinder is all that is needed, e.g. a plucked up paper handkerchief. The spark current is only created when you vigorously scrape along the metal rod with the back of a sharp-edged knife or the enclosed spark scraper. It is therefore classified as non-flammable and is therefore not subject to restrictions on air transport, for example.

- Emergency lighter in survival situations
- Nocturnal signalling with light flashes
- Sufficient for thousands of ignitions
- Spark temperature approx. 3,000°C / 5,500°F, even when wet!
