The UCO Survival Fire Starter throws hot, bright sparks in all conditions, including at altitude and in cold weather. Scrape the stainless steel striker down the ferrocerium rod to light tinder, a campfire, a gas stove or a gas barbecue.
The striker doubles as a compact survival multi-tool, and both pieces are tied together with a paracord lanyard so you never lose one half of the kit.
