Zippo Firefast Firestarter MTB Set

If you were a Boy Scout you might remember learning how to start a fire with a bow and spindle. Well, we've come a long way since then. Now the surest way to start a fire is with a ferrocerium rod like this one from Zippo.

Ferrocerium is a synthetic alloy that produces sparks that can reach temperatures up to 5,000 degrees F. THAT'S how you start a fire!

The Zippo FireFast Fire Starter Kit includes a ferrocerium rod and a striker that will produce a plentiful shower of sparks. And to make sure you are prepared to get that fire going the kit also includes 5 bundles of paraffin wax-coated tinder shreds. The coating makes the tinder water-resistant, so they will light quickly and burn strong for a hassle-free fire.

You also get a collapsible manual bellows that allows you to add just the right amount of oxygen to get your fire roaring.

Your rod and striker snap together a convenient single unit, and all components are under 5 inches, making this kit a must have for your hiking pack or camping gear, but it is also a great addition to your tackle box or even the glove compartment in your vehicle.

When a lighter or matches aren't available, Zippo's FireFast Kit is a reliable way to get your campfire going.
