bayite 1/2 Inch X 6 Inch Large Ferro Rods Ferrocerium Rod Drilled Survival Fire Starter Flint Steel with Toggle Lanyard Hole for Camping Emergency

Good product for the value

This Ferro rod is super nice easy to strike and creates lots of sparks. The only thing I didn’t like was having to scrape the protective coating off of the rod before I could use it.

Awesome!

This is the item you want when out in the woods or camping. MUCH better than those small cheap ones with plastic holders. Just about every survival trainer I know uses these.

Size matters is an age old mantra. When it comes to fire steels, its true. If you plan to use a ferrocerium rod as your primary firecraft, youll want as large as youll comfortably carry to facilitate the art. Yes, a smaller rod does the trick but a bigger rod does it with less effort. (So sorry, no puns originally intended. It just came out that way.)

works great!

This ferro rod is as good as any of the more expensive brands on the market. I don’t like using the phrase “for the price”, as it denotes if you spent more money ~ you’d get something better. Not the case with this one! I own ferro rods from literally anyone you can name. This one ranks with the best, at a fraction of the cost. Use your hard earned dollars for a great knife, stove, or pack. You needn’t look elsewhere for a ferro rod. This one is perfect & will last you a long time.

The Baylite 1/2 X 6 Ferro Rod is large enough to be easily held while striking and still small enough to fit in my backpack. The Ferro Rod should last a long time with the size of the rod. Good buy for the money!

once paint is scraped off it throws sparks pretty far, feels well made, very happy for the price

This thing is just a little too clunky. It took quite awhile to scrape all the paint off it before it would spark. I still like it a lot. Great for emergency pack but not everyday carry.
