HOW TO USE FIRESTARTERS TO START A FIRE
|
|
|
|
|
|---|---|---|---|
Step 1Gather some kindling (such as dry grass, pine needles, small twigs) and some tinder (such as small branches, pine cones, bark). |
Step 2Use serrated edge of striker to shave some magnesium from the rod onto your pile of tinder. Keep shavings closely piled together for best results. |
Step 3Use smooth edge of striker to forcefully strike rod several times in order to release a stream of sparks aimed at the magnesium pile until it ignites. |
Step 4Gently blow on the flame and start feeding it with kindling and larger branches until you have a full-fledged fire. |

...the first time I used it, the rod flew out of the holder, landed on the floor and broke in half. I was pretty bummed out as it's beautifully designed and I thought it was going to be my new favorite ferro rod. There was two in the pack so I will probably pull out the rod and put some super glue in this one. These are really nice, just be sure to check if you have a loose one before you use it.

This is probably the perfect manual firestarter. The old school magnesium firestarter used to be sold in a 1" ×2" ×0.25" slab of magnesium with a flint stick glued in a groove along one edge. They came without a scraper or sparking tool, requiring us to ruin many pocket knives while backpacking.
This one represents what happens when you improve an old concept and eliminate issues with the old style.
It's made with a high strength polymer. The whistle has dual cores for generating plenty of volume. The 550 parachute cord is standardized and the rod is shipped with a corrosion Protestant type coating. The big deal here is the convenience of having a small tool attached to the 550 lanyard. The scraper is essentially a chunk of hacksaw blade. The sharp teeth on the blade work great for removing magnesium shavings and the way the device is configured it sends sparks in precisely the right direction. I am able to make shavings and spark enough of them in about twenty seconds to get my fire going. Highly recommended product to keep handy, and priced well enough to stash one in every vehicle, go bag, ruck, or RV you have.

After scraping the black coating off you can actually catch a nice strike off these sticks.
I save the lint from the dryer and pack it into a zip lock bag. It's light weight and ignites easily with one strike 👍

These aren't my first fire starters and I must say that the fact that these are multi purpose made me wander if the compass, and whistle would truly be of any use. Once I received these, I noticed that the construction was more than adequate. The first thing I did was check to see if the button compasses functioned properly, as many of button compasses are completely worthless. Much to my surprise, both pointed north without even having to tap on them. Following this, I tried the whistles and just as with the compasses, they also functioned well. As far as the ferro rods go, both are of a good size which should allow for plenty of strikes. I would say that being able to pick up two of these for under $10.00 is a real steal.
I would highly recommend these.

The whistle is crap. It is too hard to use and extremely weak sound when it does. Paracord? Best that can be said is all 12 inches are there...... Compass might point north occasionally, but then a broken clock is right twice a day. Ferro rod works.
Save your money and buy a bigger Ferro rod and seperate items that actually work. This is a novelty item to entertain children.

What a great buy. Good price on a nice pair of relatively larger-sized ferrocerium rods. Just got boxyesterday and tested one out. Your first couple strikes will remove the coating and then they'll spark right up, just like they're supposed to. The handle feels solid, the whistle is loud and the tiny little button compass actually works very well (for a tiny little button compass). Obviously you can't do orienting with it but if you were lost and you knew the road was say SW of your location, the compass on these (at least the two I received) would do just fine.

I wanted to like this tool, thought it would be a great asset to my emergency stash ,but sadly it wasn't.At first I thought I wasn't using it properly I even watched a video to get a clue on how to use it ,so I tried it again and did what the man in the video suggested trying numerous times to no aveil.,I decided it wasn't worth the headache ill just stick with some matches, lighters ect much easier to use.Oan I seen some sparks but no matter how hard I tried nothing became of it.

As described. The rods are actually quite large and thick, so there is a good deal of sparks to throw for a long while. The compass works, and the whistle does work, even though takes a bit of trying different methods to get it to whistle. I've bought other rods in the past and this one I definitely recommend over the bear grillis ones or the cheaper "survival ones" this one seems pretty robust and quality made. I definitely would recommend.
