Tools and Hardware Reviews of Emergency Fire Starter
Customer Review: For under 5 bucks, you can't go wrong.
Summary: 5 Stars
This product works exactly as advertised. It's a magnesium bar, a piece of flint, and a striker/scraper tool. That's all it is, and that's all you need to get a fire going. It takes some patience to get a proper sized pile of shavings, but if you get a good little pile and have some dry tinder and kindling nearby, you WILL be able to make a fire. It's pretty much dummy-proof. Plus you can use the flint like a firesteel if you have other tinder on hand. It works great with cotton balls or dryer lint without even needing any magnesium.Customer Review: Get what you pay for

And at the cost of this unit you only get the glued strip on the side. What your primarly looking at is the cut saw blade a square handle and the little black strip on the side is what you need.
There nice to have for the cost but I recommend the better ones that are a full magnesium stick and not that small stick on the side.
Customer Review: Good Fire starter.

Buy in bulk if you are thinking long term. I bought 3 and wish: 1) they either made larger versions or 2) I could afford more.
Mg makes for fast fires.
Customer Review: Good to have just incase.

Nice addition to my emergency/survival gear. Yes a lighter or matches would do the trick but this will start a fire well after you run out of lighter fluid or matches. Oh and it's water proof.
Inexpensive too.
