The Swedish Firesteel - Army (2004) was developed for the Swedish Department of Defense, but has found its way into backyards and campsites around the world. Light a campfire, barbeque or stove with this clever tool that can create a 5,000º spark. Able to function even when wet, the Army Firesteel offers as many as 12,000 strikes and is bright enough to be used as an emergency flare. Approved by the International Survival Instructors Association, the Swedish Firesteel pairs with the Maya Dust (sold separately) to ensure the possibility of a good fire in virtually any conditions.
