Light My Fire Firesteel Scout
On my recent camping trip, I used my Light My Fire Firesteel Scout to light everything for the weekend.
For lighting fires, I used it once with magnesium shavings and once without. With the shavings, the fire went up in two strikes. But the shavings took about 15 minutes to make, and it sure is a good way to dull a knife quickly. The second night, I worked more on my tinder bundle. Making sure it was soft and packed correctly took away the need for the magnesium. The second fire took about 10 or 15 strikes, but I still saved time by not having to create the shavings from the mag stick.
I also used it to light my stove for coffee each morning — one strike each time.
In all, I’d say this little device does everything it’s supposed to. It spits out a nice, bright, hot spark on every strike. With a little patience and a proper tinder bundle and kindling, I’d say the Light My Fire Firesteel Scout will work for you too.
