Review: Works like it should - These work good. Nice amount of spark. Fires right up like it should.
Review: BETTER THAN AN LMF ARMY STEEL? - ORDERED THREE OF THESE AND, SURE ENOUGH, AS MANY OTHER REVIEWERS HAVE STATED, THE ROD IS LOOSE, WITHIN THE HANDLE ... BUT ... I am thinking ... THAT MIGHT BE A **GOOD** THING ! Well, Kids ... Take all this with a grain of salt because I just got these and only opened one of them, as yet. ... I confirmed that it throws a very decent spark (after the coating is stripped) ... Probably "AS GOOD" as a Light My Fire Swiss ARMY Fire-Steel, in terms of it's "spark-ability". And, yup ... The one I opened is kinda loose ... The rod wiggles in the handle (slightly) ... i was unable to twist or wiggle the rod enough to pull it out, by hand, on the first try, but it feels as if I could easily remove it with pliers (or in the course of repeated use). I see the fact that the steel can be removed from it's plastic handle as a HANDY OPTION. I mean ... I may wish to stash one or more of these inexpensive steels in a low-profile PSK (Pocket Survival Kit) or to the back of a knife sheath using Ranger Bands (rubber bands made from bicycle tire inner-tubes, of various sizes). So ... I could attach one of these and a number of FIRE-STRAWS (search YouTube) to a knife sheath or into a pocket tin or a dry-bag. The other (Standard) option is, of course, to do what everyone else does and just apply a liberal amount of Gorilla Glue to the hole in the plastic handle and re-insert the rod and allow the glue to set. Note that this appears to have the same 3/8ths diameter, as an LMF ARMY but it is something like an inch longer (easily a half inch longer and probably more). I *LIKE* IT !! ... At this price, snag two or three ... What's not to love ?

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good to have around just in case
*by D***3 on March 1, 2014*

This is a great item to have as a backup in the woods, in case something happens to your matches or lighter. The rod comes coated in black paint that you have to scrape off before use. I didn't bother to remove all of it, just a thin strip of exposed surface is enough. With the included striker, this thing puts out a lot of sparks as long as you use enough pressure. Too little pressure, and you'll get nothing. The rod and striker come attached to a lanyard, but you'll want to remove at least one of them. The short length of the lanyard makes them awkward to use with both attached. Works great, and much less expensive than other brands. I'm glad I bought it.
