Premium Ingredients
What makes us truly different is our components. We cut no expense on the creation of this tool. Many people depend on the Trekker to consistently perform in a variety of situations.
Weather-proof
Works even when exposed to the elements. You can take this tool through the rain and snow and still create a fire.
Components
Ferro Rod/Flint
Not all Ferrocerium rods/Flints are created equal. Most trained survivalists are unaware that there is a superior flint on the market.
Almost all flints are made in China and contain only 16% rare earth metal but are loaded with 19% plastic (filler).
We source our flints directly from Austria. The Austrian flint (ferrocerium rod) is the original.
The modern man-made flint was invented in 1903 by Carl Auer Von Welsback an Austrian chemist . By 1907 a factory was manufacturing them. Our flint is 76% Rare Earth Metal. It creates a large shower of sparks, with very little effort. The competition flints require huge effort and result in very little spark!
Don't buy the knock off - the original may cost more, but quality in manufacturing and performance is immediately visible.
Magnesium
Military-grade magnesium. The burn temperature is 4500 degrees Fahrenheit. This allows you to light a fire in worse conditions more rapidly.
Most fire starter makers use a magnesium alloy combined with 10% other metals, making it hard to scrape and hard to burn. It takes longer and unnecessarily increases the difficulty in lighting a fire.
Our premium magnesium is 96% pure and easy to scrape. The purer the magnesium is, the more readily it burns.
Striker
With each fire starter we provide a striker made of high carbon tempered steel - what a good quality knife is made from. This striker doesn't bend or break. It's sharpened, but not sharp enough to cut your skin.
The Handle: Built-in Tinder
If you've tried everything to get your fire started and have failed - your handle is a last resort source of dry tinder.
Scraping dry tinder from your handle is an emergency use only - if all else has failed. Be aware - to scrape off enough tinder to make a difference on a bad weather day will take 20 plus minutes.
WHEN YOU NEED IT,
IN ANY CASE, IT’s THERE
Your Premium Fire Fast fire starter is a reliable method of igniting a fire. We rate the Trekker at one fire each day for five years.
You own a gun so you can live through an emergency situation. The same reasoning applies to this fire starter. How many matches or lighters would you need to light one fire a day for 5 years? If an emergency happens you'll be very happy you have a Fire Fast in your pocket!
Even if you never use it in a dangerous situation - be prepared.
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.
Absolutely perfect size. Magnesium is very easy to scrape (handle too). Strangest thing none else mentions is the fact that if the magnesium scrapings get rained on, the sparks work like an atomic bomb! Awesome ferro!
I'm a fire starting novice, and was able to start fires with this nearly as quickly and easily as using a lighter, even with sub-optimal tinder. The magnesium rod is huge, so it should last a very long time, the construction is solid, and it just looks good. Can't suggest it enough.
If you want the ultimate camping or Go Bag ferro rod and magnesium combo this is it. You have lots of magnesium
