The essential piece of Bushcraft Equipment .

The Swedish firesteel is one of a number of different versions of fire steel on the market. But is considered in the industry to be the "original and best". The Swedish firesteel comes with its own striker and both the handle and striker are derived from Biobased plastics.

Once the black safety covering has been scraped off all you have to do is scrape the striker down the steel at approximately a 45 degree angle and you will be provided with a shower of sparks coming off at about 3000 degrees! Each striker lasts approximately 12,000 strikes and can be used to ignite natural tinders as well as camping stoves, cotton wool and even alcohol hand gel!

What do our instructors think? Jason writes:

"This is without doubt the essential piece of bushcraft equipment. Light My Fire has been around for some years now and produces some excellent pieces of equipment. With this fire steel and your knife you easily have the ability to achieve the four basic principles of survival, you can light fire, which in turn can cook your food and purify your water, and you can use the fire as a tool to work your wood for your shelter when you do not have the benefit of a saw or axe...just buy it!..."
