Wow. This one really throws a spark. Easy to use. I didn't even realize the striker came inside the handle until I saw the instructions. I was using my knife...which does throw a better, bigger spark. Striker does work well, though. Best ferro rod I have used so far...well worth the money considering how horribly other brands work, or don' work.

It's definitely small and lightweight, but it's too small and lightweight. Of course it's better than nothing but this is the hardest to use fire rod you will ever find. With other larger rods you can easily shower the ground with sparks but this one is definitely more challenging. The striker is too small, the rod is too short, and the rod is so thin you're afraid of breaking it. Rather than this I would suggest one of Exotac's other products, like the Exotac fireROD Ferrocerium Fire Starter, Black .

About the same price as a Swedish Firesteel, but much better performance. Where a firesteel sheds sparks, a "ferro" rod (ferrocerium like the polystriker) sheds tiny globs of burning metal. The difference is significant. Starting a fire with a firesteel isn't that hard, but doing so with a ferro rod is easy, even when the tinder is less than ideal. The only downside is that ferro rods need replacing more often than firesteel. A firesteel will give you about 12k strikes compared to about 1.5k from a ferro of similar size. Even though I use fewer strikes of the ferro than I would a firesteel, the firesteel still wins on longevity. Overall, I'll still take a ferro rod over a firesteel any day -- 1,500 strikes is a lot of fires, and they are still pretty cheap to replace when needed.

Okay. For the money, I would have expected a slightly larger diameter ferrocerium rod. PROs: -Good Fit/Finish -Strong Lanyard -Easily lit a fire--plenty of sparks -Lightweight CONS: -I originally thought the rod was retractable inside the handle (which would make it a great keychain/EDC item), but it is not -Striker is a bit awkward (it is more like striking a match) to hold and I found it easier to use my knife I was able to get a fire going quickly with ample sparks and this is a quality item. I would recommend this to a friend.

Hefty solid ferro rod made by one of the best in the industry. Even better at half off.
