Title: Super striker for your firesteel View count: 1037 Rating: 5.0 (7 ratings) Description: Gear Role: Firesteel Striker, Backup Sharpener Model: Corona AC 8300 Sharpening Tool The firesteel is a favorite among many survival enthusiasts. Wetness and cold can kill you long before hydration even becomes an issue. To counter this, fire is needed. Firesteels are fully waterproof and promise thousands of strikes. Mucho priority in fire lighting goes into wood preparation, and for good reason. Getting tinder lit means nothing if you haven't gathered the proper additional tinder, kindling and fuel wood to keep the blaze going. The quality of sparks should not be overlooked in my opinion, as they can supercharge your tinder ignition cycle and success. All credit for the idea to use this sharpener as a striker goes to John McCann and Survival Resources. Pros: Improves firesteel sparking, compact, light, can sharpen blades in a pinch, cheap Cons: Extra tool to carry Price: $2.99 US Vendor: Home Depot LINKS: Corona: http://tinyurl.com/dnhyhq Awesome Book: http://tinyurl.com/yc9yqf Survival Resources: http://tinyurl.com/dmzu86 Light My Fire: http://www.lightmyfireusa.com/ Home Depot: http://www.homedepot.com/ Tags: firesteel, striker, flint, review, corona, sharpening, tool, sparks, making, starting, fire, starter, Author: GearUpScene |
