Product Description
Manufacturer's Description
There are a number of situations you could find yourself in that will have you wishing youd got yourself a Firesteel while you had the opportunity. For example, youve broken down miles from anywhere in the middle of the country, youve got no mobile coverage and there isnt a house for miles. Youll be needing to start a small fire just to keep warm, so whip out your Firesteel and away you go. Another example: youre camped out in a field, its wet and miserable, and the family-size box of cooks matches youve brought along with you to light the camping stove now contains more water than your average soft drink. Again, pull out your Firesteel and set the table.
Product Description
Orginally developed for the Swedish Department of Defense, the FireSteel is a flash of genius. Its 3000C spark makes fire building easy in any weather, at any altitude. Standard issue for a number of armies around the world, the FiresSteels dependability has already made it a favourite of survival experts, hunters, fishermen and campers. It has also found its way into cabins and backyards as a fool proof way to light stoves and barbeques,

Wave goodbye to the blood-boiling frustration of traditional fire-lighting on camping trips and drink in the hi-tech modern simplicity of blaze creation the Firesteel way.
Did we mention that the spark is so bright you can also use it as an emergency beacon? Well it is, meaning that should you find yourself in somewhere completely inhospitable Stevenage for example - you can not only light a comforting fire, but also make the relevant emergency services aware of your location.
With an incineration-facilitator like this in your pocket, you can toss away those half empty packs of Swan Vestas and know that the next time you and the great outdoors become acquainted, youve got a reliable fire-lighting method to hand.
