PETER AND VERA.

THE TWO PEOPLE WHO BUILD FIRE-FAST.

FIRE-FAST

WHO WE ARE

Fire-Fast is a husband-and-wife team — Peter and Vera — based in Florida. We hand-make premium waterproof fire starters in our workshop and have demonstrated them at gun shows and outdoor events for seven years. Between the two of us that is more than 28,000 live fire-starting demonstrations.

What started as frustration with unreliable fire starters on our own camping trips turned into a simple goal: build a tool that almost anyone can use successfully, with minimal effort and maximum reliability. We still test every design to extremes and stand behind the results.

ABOUT US

Every Fire-Fast is hand-inspected and built with high-grade Austrian ferrocerium (76% rare earth metals). The rods throw a large shower of sparks with normal pressure, so fire-starting is accessible even for beginners.

We test every part to extremes. A Trekker was submerged in water for four days; after wiping it off on a pair of jeans it started a fire in 30 seconds. One Trekker sat outside in the weather for 20 months and could still light a fire. The compass on the Trekker Tracker was the only brand that survived 24 hours in a gemstone tumbler without damage.

The Trekker has been the official fire starter on Naked and Afraid and has been used on five continents in both wet and dry conditions. The Great Ape Empire (a Canadian veterans group) has also wholesaled our fire starters for years.

We stand behind every product with a lifetime replacement for manufacturing defects. No hype, no cheap imports — just gear we trust on our own adventures.
