Scout Mk2 Fire Starter

Ships within 5 to 8 business days.

A ferrocerium fire starter is unaffected by water or cold and never runs out of fuel. This one comes in a steel box that holds the rod, the scraper, and everything needed to strike a fire in one place: that is half the appeal of this model, as it means you won't have to search for the scraper at the bottom of your bag when your fingers are frozen. It only takes a quick motion: scrape, send off a shower of sparks, and the tinder catches. A simple cotton ball or piece of birch bark is enough to catch the sparks. The lid features the Bushcraft line logo, making the box recognizable by touch in a bag pocket.

Highlights

• Weatherproof: ferrocerium produces sparks whether wet or dry, unlike a match or a lighter
• Steel box included: it keeps the rod and scraper together and serves as a container for tinder
• Easy to use: a light movement of the scraper is enough to produce plenty of sparks
