Fire Starter Kit

Product Overview

The Fire Starter Kit Design
Three piece set includes flint fire starter stick, waxed canvas fire starting scrap tinder, and a leather case (our Cash & Receipt Bag) to keep it all together. Flint stick has a magnesium fire starter rod embedded in a Padauk wood handle and a scraper to get the sparks flying; Strung together on a leather lanyard for safe keeping. Leather case is constructed with tough full-grain leather; Secured with a thick leather tie that is also removable for emergencies. The leather case is packed with scrap waxed canvas tinder to help get a fire started. Slim design slips into packs easily.

How To Use the Fire Starter Kit
Place the waxed canvas scrap over a pile of tinder. Simply shave a small amount of magnesium from the rod onto your tinder using the side of the scraper. Hold the rod at an angle over the pile and forcefully slide your striker down the length of the rod creating sparks to ignite the fire. This is not a toy and not to be used by children. Not recommended for anyone under 18 years old. For outdoor use only. Only light fires in safe and permitted locations.

    Pleasantly surprised

    This is a very well made product. Saddleback provides more than enough waxed patches in the set. It's basically a lifetime supply of the little things. The fire starter is solid and very light. The wood handle feels really good, and the striker works as it should.



    As the product description describes, the waxed pouch will leave a bit of wax residue behind at first. If this is an issue, simply keep the pouch in the plastic bag it comes in when you have it in your pack.



    I use this like a "possibles pouch". I took out about half of the waxed patches and added in dryer lint. The dryer lint catches even faster than the wax patches. I then added a few other items I like to have at all times on the trail or on the river like a small flashlight and rescue whistle. I like this product because I can keep it my backpack for family hikes or in my sling pack when I fly fish.
