FireSteel – Buy The Best If You’re Serious About Survival
image: one of my FireSteels
Buy FireSteel products from the same company who makes them for the US Military. The US Military has exacting standards – they are putting their lives on the line. So you know beyond a doubt what this company sells is the Real Deal.
Located in Littleton, NH, FireSteel.com (visit them here) makes the worlds’ best FireSteels.
They are a sponsor here. But I wouldn’t be saying that (or have them here) if they sold junk.
Why are they the best?
FireSteel – Rare Earths
Rare Earths, the chemicals that make good sparks when you scrape a FireSteel rod, are very expensive. Cheap one’s skimp on Rare Earth elements.
“We DO NOT do that!” says Ron Fontaine of FireSteel. “This is why (our) FireSteels are the best you can get.”
When you use a FireSteel.com FireSteel you will get a fire because of the massive sparks the rod makes. The percentage of Rare Earth elements we put in our FireSteel Rods are the highest you can get.
What more do you need to know?
Buy cheap firesteels or buy the best – up to you. If you are serious about Survival you cannot go wrong with our FireSteel. But you can certainly go wrong with the cheap crap that is out there – just saying so you know what to expect.

“Its been a few years since my last order and I just got a box from you. The [firesteel] is great. I have been training intel officers after my 4 tours to Iraq and 3 to the Afghan Hills.
I am using the fire steels in both the field ops and SERE parts of the intel training….They were slowly whittled down over the years.
We [had] one pilot stand on a mountain scraping his fire steel as a signal. The PJs saw the sparks 2 miles away. We even ignited time fuse with one to set off an IED.”
Why Should I Have (at least) One?
Matches can become damp and useless.
Lighters run out of fuel or break.
Old fashioned flint and steel can be difficult to master.
FireSteel is lightweight, compact, and easy to use.
Just One can start thousands of fires.
Don’t get me wrong… you SHOULD have multiple ways to start a fire in your survival kit / fire kit. I’m just saying that a FireSteel is an excellent addition. I have one in each of my kits.
They have so many styles, sizes, shapes to choose from that I simply suggest that you visit their site. If you ever buy something from them, tell-em you came from Modern Survival Blog…
