Very good and very cheap fire starter (I don't think there is a cheaper and equally good one anymore). With a single strike, you get a large shower of sparks, which makes lighting a fire much easier. I recommend it.
MFH Flint with Compass
Rugged and compact ferrocerium flint designed for several thousand strikes. Ideal not only for camping trips, but also as a reliable tool in survival and emergency scenarios. The flint allows you to easily ignite a gas stove, camping stove, or start a campfire.
Ferrocerium - reliable fire source
Compass placed in the grip
Integrated into the composite handle of the rod is a compact, liquid-filled button compass.
Set elements
The set features a flint along with a dedicated steel striker for producing sparks. Both components are secured together with a cord. Thanks to the red housing, the flint can be quickly located even in poor lighting or adverse weather conditions.

Good, quite thick fire starter producing a lot of sparks. Small compass that works, I compared it with another larger one and it shows the correct direction, so I think it's worth it.
-
The fire starter is useful for camping, the price is good because it's cheap, handy, fits everywhere, an alternative when matches are missing, lights the campfire well, thoughtful product, good company.
-
The fire starter is well made. I have no comparison with others, but it gives a lot of sparks and looks solid. However, the compass does not work. I turn the whole thing and the compass dial stays still relative to the casing instead of pointing in the same direction. For the fire starter I recommend, for the compass I do not.
-
In this price range, it is an attractive fire starter. The striker is a bit poor but nice sparks with a knife. The compass is more of a decoration but more or less shows the direction. Still, I recommend it, especially for training.
-
A NICE medium-sized fire starter. As for the compass, it was compared with my others and is okay. I haven't tried lighting a fire with it yet, but I tried cheaper ones and it's difficult.
-
Great fire starter at a very attractive price, the striker from the set doesn't hold well but it sparks well, the small compass is a nice addition and its embedding in the handle does not adversely affect the grip itself - I recommend it.
-
For this price there probably isn't anything better. I have 6 different fire starters, one in each backpack, I started with those costing over 80 PLN but this one is completely sufficient. I recommend it.
-
The sparks go well, it lights up without any problem. The compass works OK.
-
It gives a pretty nice shower of sparks. Nice fire starter :)
