Granting you the ability to start a fire wherever, whenever, no matter if it is soaking wet and miserable out. We demonstrate all the possible tinders on our fire lighting sessions; though I still feel that for the effectiveness and the price you can’t beat cotton wool and Vaseline. The handle of the Fire Fast Trekker is made from hardwood and is designed for a secure grip, even in the harshest of conditions. The handle can also be scraped to produce dry tinder, a crucial element in an emergency.
It’s all ferrocerium, right?. Wrong, there are three main compounds Soft, Medium, Hard. Each one has its own set of characteristics. Such as a soft Ferro rod (more magnesium content). This is the key, in fact this is the key to all fire lighting. However, with sparks we need to make even more effort to find and process the correct materials. I have compiled a short list of possibles below:Replace the rod if necessary: Over time, the ferro rod may become worn or damaged, reducing its ability to produce sparks. If this happens, it’s best to replace the rod rather than trying to repair it. This is one of the UK’s most recognised trees and one of our most useful. Unfortunately many have no idea of its usefulness! The birch tree is a pioneer species, meaning it is very good at being a tree. This is handy as it is also very good at dying. When this happens we can find it laying on the forest floor with the wood rotten and wet but with the bark still fully intact and full of oil, which when correctly processed this is one of the UK’s best tinders on offer. Learn your trees and their uses Multifunctional: Ferro rods can be used for more than just starting fires. They can also be used to signal for help, as the sparks generated by striking the rod are highly visible in the dark. Scrape the ferro rod: Place the striking tool against the ferro rod and scrape it downward in a forceful and swift motion. Repeat this several times to generate a shower of sparks. Why You're NOT Prepared For What's Coming... Because you're missing 2 of the most essential ingredients...
Matches are a common tool used for starting fires, but they may not always be reliable. A permanent and better option is a Ferro Rod.
Why Trust Skilled Survival...
Does it have to fit into a small container such as an Altoids tin?. Is it going to be mounted on your belt?.• Does it come with a striker? Ferro rods are softer and can generate more sparks than a piece of flint. However, they wear down at a faster rate. Flimsy rods are also prone to breakage. Do Ferro rods run out? With the knowledge of the best Ferro Rod models available, you can easily choose the best one for your survival gear and start fires in any weather conditions.
