Very rugid2008-11-16
I like how rugid and thick the firesteel is, the striker could be thicker but other than that its a great combo.
Swedish? I think not.2008-11-10
This product is in no way neutral like Sweden because it is hott. It does work well in the cold and even when completely soaked in any liquid and I do mean any. This thing may be the greatest tool in your bag right after a good knife. So simple a noob could use it. Rats off to Ya' !!!

Great product.2008-10-15
Very happy with my purchase of FireSteel Army model. I was actually able to make fire with cotton buds in just a few strikes. And considering I have never experienced making fire with anything like this before, that's pretty amazing. With some practice I should be successful with just 1 or 2 strikes.

It's too big for my pocket though so I plan to buy the scout model for that purpose. And I'll put the army model in my preparedness pack.
Good but not Great2008-10-09
Basically creates fire and does a good job at it. Only reason I gave it 4 stars was that the included striker eats away at the rod pretty quickly.
