Compact Gerber Fire Starter for kindling fires in military, sports and hiking conditions.
The waterproof case contains two products: a ferrocerium rod and a metal plate, by means of which the sparks for the fire are cut out by rubbing against the rod. Ferrocerium is a pyrophoric ferroalloy, the main part of which is cerium (about 40—45%), which has the property of producing bright and hot sparks when rubbed.
The design consists of two separate elements with a common nylon cord, thanks to which the parts do not get lost and the fire starter can be easily placed on the equipment.
In addition to the rod and the plate, one of the ends of the handle has a small cavity with a tight-fitting lid, where dry tinder can be placed in case of emergency.
There is also a small whistle on the cord, which can be used to sound a signal while hiking.
Textured body for a comfortable grip.
Strap for attaching to a backpack or key chain to keep the Starter close at hand.
