Users say:
This ferrorod is a great addition to any camping gear, producing tons of sparks with very little effort. It is big enough to hold easily and long enough to have a good strike distance to get good sparks. It is a good value for the money and has a curved striker area for better success.

A WILDERNESS WORKHORSE | The simpler the better, an idea we followed when making the Überleben Kraftig Fire Starter. Nothing fancy, just a solid 1/2" thick ferrocerium rod to get the sparks flying. It may seem like overkill, but is that a bad thing? BEST FERRO BLEND, PERIOD | Our trademark Sanft-korr ferrocerium blend is a perfect balance that boasts both softness & durability. Ignite any fire with ease at any altitude you find yourself at or in any weather you get caught in, even when wet HIGH-TEMPERATURE SPARKS | The reason you choose a ferro rod over standard flint is the ease at which it sparks and, more importantly, for molten showers of up to 5,500F/3,000C to rain down and ensure your tinder sets ablaze when you need it most WITH LANYARD & MULTI-TOOL | All rods come with a shock-cord lanyard for multiple securing options and a 6-function multi-tool that serves as a straight-edge striker, tinder scraper, map scale, ruler, hex wrench, and most importantly - a bottle opener AVAILABLE IN 2 DIFFERENT LENGTHS | The Kraftig Fire Starter comes available with 2 length options: 5" / 12.7cm or 8" / 20.32cm long. Both have a 1/2-inch / 12.5mm thickness that will provide 20,000+ strikes. Not our lightest rod, but our best one We believe that less is more. We believe in quality over quantity. We believe in respecting tradition, while continually challenging it. And above all, we believe that fire is an absolute non-negotiable. Überleben is a German word meaning to survive - and/or, to live. While those words appear the same, they're somewhat different. Fire is essential to survival. However, "survival" is not the reason we trek into the woods after work on a Wednesday afternoon, were doing this because we long to live. We're chasing the experience, and we exist to share that experience with others. Introducing the Überleben Kraftig, a solid 1/2" ferrocerium rod that is available in a length of either 5" / 12.7cm or 8" / 20.32cm and has 20,000+ strikes. Nothing fancy or complicated, just a solid fire starter. It is overkill in size, but that's not a bad thing especially when it matters the most. The Kraftig comes with a shock cord lanyard for multiple securings and flex-versatility when striking, and a 6-function multi-tool scraper. This is our gnarliest ferro rod to date. All Überleben products come with a Limited Lifetime Warranty against defects. Überleben - to survive and outlast.
