Sparkie Fire Starter

This is an excellent fire starter. Very easy to use, and produces sparks that easily ignite anything that is a viable fuel, such as cotton balls, tampons, or dry brush. It also very easily lit commercial fuel such as compressed Trioxane. I used it to light the various fuels listed above, and it lit all of them easily. It is super easy to use, anyone could use it. It has not malfunctioned once after over a hundred used. It is very compact, and small enough to fit in any survival or camping kit, yet has enough power to create a fire with ease. It is truly the best of both worlds. This is an amazing fire starter that you should just have to have. It is inexpensive, but for what it does it can be invaluable. I personally have one in my emergency supplies bag, and will be getting another one for my camping kit. It is so easy to use, you just push where it says push, and depress the rod and instant shower of sparks. I would get this if you are here for your first one.

If you do it right. Its hard to mess this system up. Its simple and does the trick.

Own and used several times. Works great. Have to be careful after a while of use . To get sparks as it wears you must apply force again the plastic and eventually it may brake.

This thing showers sparks! Way more sparks than I was ever able to achieve with other flint and steel fire starters. Easy to use, even for my 10 year old.

This was a waste of money. It broke after a few tries and we never got a spark. I like the idea of a one handed flint and steel but the design on this is just flawed. Amazon did return my money without me having to return the item which was nice.

Pretty good one handed fire starter. Hold kindling in off hand a smack the striker into it and it works pretty good. Only hangup here is the construction. Its flimsy and will fall apart if you are too rough with it.

Nice pocket-sized fire starter

Good product

It is impressive, sparks come out readily. The latch machanism holding the rod inside the housing won't stand a slight impact, when I carry it around my neck, it comes out everytime when it swings to hit any solid object. Keep it in your pocket would be fine.

Fair enough

Amazing thanks

Hallo ich finde den Firesteel gut er ist anfangs etwas schwierig in der Handhabung aber letztlich reine Übungssache deshalb nehme ich lieber meinen herkömmlichen zum Feuer machen ist aber übungssache

Really cool little flint fire starters that can be used with one hand. Very efficient. Bought 98 to give away at an event!
