Fire Starting Supplies
These fire starting supplies give you options you can pack in your
survival or emergency kit to ensure you can stay warm and dry in
an emergency. In a survival scenario, the ability
to start a fire can mean the difference between life and death.
If you do not have a way to get or stay warm, your body will lose
heat and you can get hypothermia and die. Fire starting is arguably
the most important component of a survival kit.
Having multiple ways to make a fire is just smart. If one fails,
you have a backup. If it's pouring rain and everything is wet, waterproof
matches may be your only method of building a roaring fire to get
warm by. And to make it even easier to start a fire, you have fire
sticks and emergency tinder as sure methods of getting your kindlin'
started even when they're wet.
Your survival kit should contain multiple fire starting supplies
and you should practice using them.
The magnesium fire stick can start dozens of fires. The Spark-Lite™
emits a blast of sparks onto the included tinder that will light
even when they are completely wet. True mil-spec and useable one
handed. This may become important if one of your arms or hands are
injured.
Our premium
backpack kits include every one of these fire starters. With
such an important element of survival, we don't want you to be without.
