## Description

desertcart.com: Ferro Rod Fire Starter Kit – 5" Flint and Steel with Two Waxed Tinder Cord & Paracord for Camping, Hiking, Outdoor Survival, Emergency Preparedness : Sports & Outdoors

Review: Better than advertised. - I have added this to my day-pack. I already have one for my bigger pack for deeper multi-night hikes. These are a necessity for primitive camping. This one is made well and you get some perks with it (waxed tinder cord/lighter barrel) which I don't use but good to have if your tinder is harder to start. Happy with purchase and it is a BIG ferro-rod. Sparks well. I like the steel that comes with it... All sides are sharp 90 degrees to throw the sparks. Great value.
Review: It works as well as you could hope for - It's a ferro rod. If your looking at this, you know what it is. It works well. It sends a shower of directed sparks as you would expect. This one is a pretty good value IMO. I'm happy with the purchase. I haven't used the tinder rope because I just haven't needed it. But it's handy to know it's there if you need it. I've never blown the whistle. I don't know if it works or not, or how it sounds if it does work. The striker is a substantial metal striker. It's not some flimsy piece of tin. That's a nice touch. Being a big substantial striker, it could have some teeth to help process tinder. But if you are using a ferro rod, you probably already have another way to process tinder. The lanyard is a pretty long strand of para-cord. Although it is twisted and tied making it much shorter. I purchased this ferro rod specifically because of the para-cord lanyard. It is just convenient to have everything contained on a lanyard. I did take the whistle apart to get to the ends of the para-cord so that I could unwrap/untie it. That way I can store another ferro rod on the same lanyard, and also wear it around my neck for convenience. A ferro rod is a MUST HAVE. In a survival situation, your only other recourse is a friction fire, and that is exponentially more difficult. I find that it is easier to start a fire with a ferro rod than it is with a lighter. There are probably a few reasons for this. First, I'm sure that I prepare my tinder better to accept a spark when I'm using a ferro rod. Second, it can be difficult to direct a flame toward a fuel source, especially if it is low to the ground. A ferro rod has no problem showering sparks exactly where you want them, whether it is low to the ground or not. How many times have you burned your thumb trying to light a fire with a lighter? That's not going to happen with a ferro rod.

A: the diameter of the ferro rod is 0.5 inch and length is 5 inch.

**Q: Are these rods "hard" or "soft"?**
A: By touching the fire starter,  the feeling is hard, but it is just the right hardness for making shower of sparks.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great start for a fire kit.

Great spark, solid reliable system. Scraper is superior to most and the cotton match really rounds out this set making a solid fire starting and a great beginning for a fire kit.
