        Comments about Ultimate Survival Sparkie™ Fire Starter:

        Works perfect! Takes a couple tries to get it right, but after you do its easy to use. The wetfire tinder provided works great and a good tinder is required to get your fire going. I have previosly owned a cheaper magnesium stick but doesn't work nearly as easy as the Sparkie does.

            I own several types of fire starters and this is my favorite. I own firesteels and also own the blastmatch. For ease of use and portability, the sparkie can't be beat. I keep on my key chain so its always with me and it produces a great shower of sparks. Use with your favorite tinder and you are good to go.
