David Story
"On the series Naked and Afraid, achieving the main survival essentials (fire, water, shelter and food) is absolutely crucial. We've seen our cast employ all kinds of fire starters, but in 13 years and 200 episodes, we've never seen one that beats the Fire-Fast Trekker fire starter. The magnesium rod, flint, handle, and scraper are all top-quality and it's why we've chosen to provide the Trekker to our survivalists every time. Finishing a Naked and Afraid challenge is never easy, but the Trekker gives our survivalists a fighting chance"

WHY CHOOSE FIRE-FAST?
We use industry best quality components:
The EUROPEAN FLINTS (Ferro Rod, Ferrocerium) are made in Austria. Austrian flints generate an intense shower of hot sparks, enabling you to ignite a fire, often with one strike. You have to try it to believe it! (See article “Chinese vs Austrian flint”).
Our 96 % PURE MAGNESIUM burns at 4500 degrees. Using our striker, you can scrape off fat shavings without difficulty, making it easier to start a fire in damp or wet conditions.

The AFRICAN HARDWOOD HANDLE is virtually waterproof and delivers a secure, comfortable grip — even with gloved, cold, or numb hands. This reliable hold is critical for consistent fire starts in tough conditions. In an emergency, you can also scrape fine wood shavings from the handle with the striker to create dry tinder on the spot.
Our HARDENED STEEL STRIKER is far stronger and more durable than a hacksaw blade, while being significantly easier and safer to use than a knife. It throws hot, reliable sparks and cleanly shaves both magnesium and wood for quick tinder.
The 550 lb. SEVEN-STRAND CORE PARACORD securely tethers the striker, preventing accidental loss in the field.
Choose a FIRE-FAST FIRE — you’ll never want to use anything else. Proudly handcrafted right here in the USA.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY
Yeah, y’all go ahead and do yourselves a favor. Grab this fire steel, I can finally start a fire here in the rainy Pacific North West where everything is soaked.
Abenator - Amazon Customer
I don’t know when I’ll need to buy another striker, but when I do, I just want another on of these. This this throws off Sparks like nobody’s business, and due to it’s size, is a great striker for kids to learn with. I’m impressed!
Owen - Amazon Customer
We’ve used this at 2 scout camping trips and was easily usable by the scouts to meet their fire starting requirement. Awesome tool and stood up to plenty of abuse as 10+ kids used it to start individual fires.
Bnezzy - Amazon Customer
Perfect combo and perfect size. I’ve tried 20+ others and this is great! Great for camping, BSA fire starting training, or just as a backup in any emergency prep bag.
J Row - Amazon Customer
I have tried out various firestarters and by far this performed the best. I always keep lighters with me but this will perform well in an emergency.

“I’ve put the Fire-Fast Trekker through hell—Colombian monsoons for 21 days, blizzards in the Canadian Rockies, soaked trails of the PNW, and the deserts of Phoenix with almost nothing to burn. It has never failed me. When your survival is on the line, there is no other option than my Trekker.”
