Step 1

Gather some kindling (such as dry grass, pine needles, small twigs) and some tinder (such as small branches, pine cones, bark).

Step 2

Use serrated edge of striker to shave some magnesium from the rod onto your pile of tinder. Keep shavings closely piled together for best results.

Step 3

Use smooth edge of striker to forcefully strike rod several times in order to release a stream of sparks aimed at the magnesium pile until it ignites.

Step 4

Gently blow on the flame and start feeding it with kindling and larger branches until you have a full-fledged fire.

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the country of manufacturer
Answer:	Yes it does
Question:	Approximately how many strikes will it last
Answer:	Great question, Our product is a single rope that is approximately 5.5 inches long and 1 inch in diameter. When separated a whole stick is made of 33 smaller strands and each strand will burn for 8 minutes.
Question:	Can you scrape pieces of the rod into your kindling with the striker itself? Or only use it to strike
Answer:	Yes it can! Black Beard Fire Starters were specifically designed to light with a spark from a ferro rod.
Question:	Does it have magnesium
Answer:	The company sells an excellent arc lighter that looks just like the much lower price on the Amazon app. I’d check and see that it has the same features, I have the Black Beard one, it works every time, floats, hold a charge and they claim 300 uses, I haven’t used it 300 times, but it’s holding its charge and worth the money.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does the drill come with the fake yeezys from the photo
Answer:	Wow. I guess the price has really dropped since 2012. As of today (July, 2017) on the website the price is basically $60 plus $13 shipping. So, to your point, it is still the same price on the site as it is on Amazon, but half the price of what it was 5 years ago. Just out of curiosity, I was wondering if the 2012 version had the advertising that all the current reviewers are complaining about, or if that was why they cut the price in half.
Question:	Does it come with a handle
Answer:	I don't think this will work for you. They discuss ways to "moderate" the exercises, but it is still a pretty athletically-oriented video in my opinion. Essentials of Tai Chi and Qigong by David-Dorian Ross might be better. In one clip, he shows how you can sit on a stool and still perform some of the exercises.
Question:	I didn’t get any instructions. Can anyone give me a quick how to
Answer:	It is a great workout, and you can adjust to your ability, and do what you can. I am 43 and was having back pain and tightness, in my leg joints. I completed the 13 week workout, and found that is helped my back and mobility and balance. You can modify movements using a chair. Even if you start doing the ones you can i believe you will notice a difference. There is a lot of repitition, and time to get yourself back to being mobile. Another option would be to start out with a sit to be fit workouts to start working on mobility.
Question:	What kind of wood is it
Answer:	Yes it is. I only wish I could find time to try it every day. I woud like to be in the shape Regis is in.

Here's how to use this fire starter in 5 easy steps!

User questions & answers

Question:

Does it come with a pouch like the description says

Answer:

You get one that you cut off what you need. It takes very little to get your fire going. Excellent product, the price is well worth it, you can start a ton of fires if you use a small amount of the waterproof fire starter. I’d buy a dual arch lighter to go with it. They are a necessity because they float, waterproof and light up to 300 times on a 90 minute charge, depending on which one you select. The price is worth the need for a product like this, when you really need it, you’d pay a $100. My go-to fire starter, even at hone in the fire pit.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this come in a smaller wrist size, around
Answer:	"Fake yeezys" I am not familiar with. However, it comes with some sort of tender and works amazingly well. In about ten "saws", I had bountiful smoke and am positive a nice ember was imminent.
Question:	Why are you unable to ship to Alaska
Answer:	The short end is the handle.
Question:	What thickness or weight is the leather that this is made from
Answer:	I can probably get you some directions and email them to you - it works very well. Basically, straighten out cordage attached to bow and upright. Use enough downward pressure to hold in place in notch. With approx 10 - 15 "saws" back and forth, you will see smoke and a little more will provide smoldering/glowing ash.
Question:	I have plenty fo fero rods and paracord braceletss. Is there any way to order just the bag
Answer:	Hi, the PSKOOK Hand Drill is made from sturdy Schima superb and the great wood board perfect for forming ember, we hope the information and the related YouTube video are helpful for you.

User questions & answers

Question:	How does it perform compared to the smaller (3.14 inch length)Bayite Ferrocerium Ferro Rod pack of
Answer:	Corn can make deer and mule deer very sick. It upsets the PH of their system and will not allow them to absorb nutrients. Try Monster Meal or Purina Antler Max instead - both are good for makes and females and young deer too. I’m in CA and we support a herd of mule deer and mistakenly tried corn and it was a huge mistake. Made a female lose her fur. Monster Meal is a sold buy and it lasts a long time.
Question:	What is the unpackaged weight of this item
Answer:	I donno.....if ppl I I’ve encountered have anything to do with it it’s the filthiest corn ever from the rederr than red light district.
Question:	How many strikes is this rated up to
Answer:	For me a 40 lb bag lasted about 5 minutes while I dumped the whole thing out around my property. It just depends how much you want to feed and where. I'll tell you that corn is like candy to squirrels, deer, hogs and more. No matter what it wont last very long once you've dumped it.
Question:	How is the quality on these? Do they give out good sparks
Answer:	Only ingredient listed on bag: "whole shelled corn" "no mention of molasses"Hope was helpful Tim

One thing you might consider is the cost of a premium leather tinder bag like the one offered in the kit would likely be about the cost of the kit.

Can you ever have too many ferro rods anyway? :-) Thank you again for the question, we really appreciate the feedback. Please let us know if you have any more questions.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can the metal striker be detached easily? I already have a knife with a 90° spine
Answer:	Yes very easy. I removed whistle and steel.
Question:	Is the whistle attached to it loud enough to be used as a legitimate emergency whistle
Answer:	well its not as loud as a referees whistle. I have seen them in bear scat along with pepper spray and bells . seriously its loud enough to here from a pretty good distance.
Question:	How this usually carried? Is the extra paracord used as a necklace lanyard? Any suggestions will be helpful
Answer:	The good news is - any way that is convenient for you. The means and ways are as unique as the individual carrying it. I carry it in an outside pack pocket or outside pouch along with a waterproof container that holds my tinder and a container of my backup fire starter: matches. Without modification the lanyard is more a handy grip that allows you to get a full sparking strike down the length of the ferro rod than anything else. Although I'm sure mods can be made if you wanted to carry it around your neck. Personally I don't like anything as strong as paracord wrapped around my neck or hanging from my neck, however loosely. When hiking I take both TinderQuik, and Wetfire tinder along with strike anywhere matches that I've waterproofed with wax. I'm experimenting with PyroPutty as well. And depending on distance and likely weather I may take two Pull Start Fire units (they're very light weight). But I've always got matches, tinder, and the REHTAEL kit. Note, I just got the REHTAEL Tinder Wick and Bellow, [40-Inch] Hemp Wick Cord Waterproof with Aluminum Tube Sleeve for Fire Starting and am experimenting with that as an accompaniment to the ferro rod. Although I haven't yet tested it under wet conditions, when dry it's instant flame on the first strike, and you can feed the wick through the tube to keep the flame going - and the tube ("bellow") allows you to easily keep the flame right in the middle of your tinder/kindling mix. My current thinking is that since I keep it in a waterproof container, it will always be dry enough for a first strike flame.
