Kershaw 1019 Fire Starter, Magnesium Steel, Red/Silver, Stonewashed

Start a fire even when it's wet outside. To get your fire going, all you'll need is a small pile of dry grass, wood shavings or other flammable materials. Hold the magnesium fire steel shaft close to the pile and quickly draw the striker down the shaft at a right angle to produce sparks. The sparks will ignite the dry materials and as the fire becomes established, you will be able to gradually add larger materials to the fire until it is at the desired size. Rain, snow or whatever mother nature can dish out, with this magnesium alloy fire starter, you'll be able to achieve the spark you need to get your fire going. Small enough to fit in your driest pocket. Makes an essential addition to your dry-box supplies.
