Fire steel

[treillw]

Wanna get a fire steel. Anything special to look for, or are they all the same?

Thanks!

Exotac has a hollow compartment in the lid for tinder.

Almost any decent brand firesteel works well. The tinder the spark hits is what is important. Vaseline coated cotton balls or several commercial versions work well.

The Holland Lightning Strike is the best striker I have ever used. It throws a large volume of sparks, is extremely well built, has storage for tinder and is rebuildable if necessary. Top quality unit.
