Another ultimate survival tool—the Magnesium Fire Starter!

You're out on the trail, the sun's setting, and you need a fire to keep warm and boil water. What you need is a reliable, foolproof way to get that fire going. Enter the Magnesium Fire Starter!

First things first, grab your magnesium block and a sharp knife. You want to hold that knife at a solid 90° angle to the block and start paring off a small pile of magnesium shavings. Aim for enough to cover the size of a quarter.

Next, gather your tinder. This could be anything from dry leaves and twigs to a bit of paper. Pile it up right next to your magnesium shavings. .

Now, here’s where the real action begins! Hold your fire starter with the sparking insert facing up at about a 45° angle, within an inch of those magnesium shavings. Using the back of your knife, scrape the length of the starter to create sparks. When those sparks hit the magnesium, it's like fireworks!

The magnesium shavings will burn bright and fast, reaching extreme temperatures that can ignite even damp tinder. So, don’t worry if your kindling’s a bit moist from the dew. Just be ready to add more fuel and keep that fire roaring.

There you have it—fire in a flash, no matter where you are. With this Magnesium Fire Starter in your kit, you'll be prepared to take on any adventure. Now, go out there and light up the wild!
