The new MAGFIRE Magnesium firestarter has been developed by survival experts to work trouble free after getting wet, in a storm and below freezing point.
In a emergency situation a campfire can save your life. By using fire or smoke you could signal help for rescue. Fire will give you protection, warmth, dry your gear, make your water drinkable and cook your food.
When traditional matches are long enough in contact with humid air they won't work any more. "Old matches" are fragile and crumbles easily. Butane lighters don't last long and they won't work in a storm, highly humid conditions or in cold weather. When they become wet or cold these lighters won't work at all.
A group of survival experts started to develop a simple and reliable firestarter for any weather condition. As a result, they achieved a new production method, which led to a unique metal alloy. When this metal is striked with a sharp metal object it produced extremely hot sparks, which are able to set tinder on fire.
MAGFIRE is a practical fire starter from demanding professional use to backyard barbeques. Military experts have been involved in the development process and the army is one of the major user of this metal.
