Mil-Tec Fire Steel Small

Flint with a ferrocerium rod with a diameter of 6 mm, producing a large shower of sparks at a temperature of 3000 deg. C. It works in difficult weather conditions, for example during rain and wind, and at high altitudes. With the help of the flint, you can light, for example, a gas stove, camping stove, or a campfire, which is a source of heat and makes it possible, for example, to prepare a meal away from home.

The handle is made of durable plastic. The whole item is 80 mm long, and thanks to its compact size, it fits in a pants pocket or in a backpack.

Key features

The package contains a serrated metal plate striker as well as a paracord lanyard.

Review summary

Automatically prepared based on reviews

Customers highlight that the fire starter is small, lightweight, and easy to use, making it ideal for camping, hiking, and survival situations. Its compactness and sturdy construction are praised, as well as its reliable performance in igniting fires—even when using damp tinder. The affordable price and excellent value are considered major strengths. The most common complaint concerns the included striker, which can be weak or inefficient, but users easily replace it with a knife. While a few mention limited spark production or inconvenient ignition, most agree that the device is practical and highly recommended.

    The fire starter is good for the price. I think it is a good choice for someone who is just beginning to use this kind of tool. I recommend using something other than the metal plate included in the set for striking.

    It is small, lightweight, and worth having on hand when going on trips to nature as an alternative to a lighter or matches. It produces sparks, and if the kindling is dry and flammable, you can easily start a fire with this device.

    Good quality firestarter, very easy to make sparks with it, relatively comfortable grip and a low price, so I think the product is worth its price.

    The perfect firestarter for this price, works as it should, although the included metal plate could be better. Personally, I use a homemade striker with a slightly longer cord. Price plays a significant role here. For me, 5 stars.

    The firestarter works properly, produces many sparks, and is easy to use. Small, light, and always ignites—ideal for camping or the mountains, but you need to use a knife, as the included plate isn't suitable.

    The firestarter works with a knife (the plate will also make sparks, but a knife gives a bigger spark). You don't have to shave it either. My tip: press harder and it'll be OK.

    The firestarter generates a small amount of sparks and insufficient heat, making lighting a fire inconvenient and ineffective. On the third use, the handle broke off the rod.

    The firestarter is small, so it doesn't take up much space, it works and makes sparks easily and you can light a fire with it without any trouble. It seems to be quite well made. For the price, it's pretty decent.

    Nice small fire starter, does its job. I think the price to product ratio is okay. You can strike it with a knife, but the metal plate included in the set is also usable :) I recommend it.

    A very practical product, it will definitely come in handy on more than one camping trip. Nicely and aesthetically made. Thanks to the fact that it is not too big, it takes up very little space.

    It's not so easy to make sparks, ignition is problematic too. In military training, I used a much better firestarter that could light cotton from the first spark shower.
