The Firesteel
What is a Firesteel?
A Firesteel is an interesting gadget for lighting fires that comes in three models which are all basically the same but look different. The Scout Firesteel above has around 3,000 strikes to it. The Army Firesteels have around 12,000 strikes.
The Firesteel was developed by a Swedish Arctic survival expert. Most of us won't end up in the Arctic depending on our Firesteel, but if we did we could be assured that it would work when needed - unlike that damp box of matches.
What is the Firesteel made of?
It is made from a magnesium alloy of 7 metals.
How do I use it?
By dragging the striker (the silver piece) slowly across the metal of the main body a large spark is ignited. This spark is extremely hot (3,000°C). This spark will then light the tinder prepared for the fire/stove/barbecue. As the Firesteel is water resistant and easy to use it truly is a survivalist's friend.
The Army Firesteels above are both the same size and have around 12,000 strikes.
