Swedish Firesteel
Going camping this summer? Forget the matchsticks, they break anyway. Or worse gets damp and won’t light up leaving you in darkness in the company of bears. Say hello to the Swedish Firesteel. This fire starting steel generates 3,000 C degrees of spark temperature, which makes building fire easy anywhere and at any altitude. Good news is, it even works when it’s wet.
All you need to do is move the metal blade gently on the firesteel and watch sparks fly. Works great on BBQ’s too.
