Daniel: I really really wanted to love this product, especially given its high price point.
The Pros; The zip case is cool, great size and with just enough room to add a folding knife and some gathered tinder. The patch is badass! The rod is thick and can throw some chunky sparks. Windproof and waterproof arc lighter is a good touch.
The Cons; The striker is thin and causes pain to grip with any pressure (rather use my knife)
The Firestarter material itself, should be the centerpiece, and I hope I just have a bad batch and it can be replaced... but I've got maybe 35 direct hits from chunky sparks that stayed alive well long enough to start this stuff... before it actually ignites. I even did a side by side with gathered materials vs blackboard fire starter, using their rod and striker. Fire on the second go with my gathered material, vs 40+ on blackboard so much that I gave up and used the arc lighter which itself took repositioning and about 30 seconds to light.
So far, not so good... but I have hope that it's just a bad batch and we'll be able to update this soon, I hope!

Connor Hill: Honestly the best package for your bugout gear. I love using mine in the mountains. Just charge up the arc lighter before you go and you are ready to get going and you don't have to worry about having to find kindling or making it yourself. Camping is good when you are ready with this blackbeard fire starter plunder pack.

tanner henrietanner henrie: It’s for real - I started a fire outside in the rain on soaked pavement. The fire starter’s are legit. The flint is great To have in the kit and is easy to use. But the electric lighter combined with the fire starter stick Is the easiest way to start a camp fire I have ever seen. Fast shipping. Highly recommend.
