    Not necessarily big but something you can physically manipulate when you are cold. It's pretty difficult to do really simple things when you hands are numb. That's where practice comes in. Try striking that BIC when your hands are really cold. Try using a fire steel and flint. Having a ton of matches won't help a bit if you find out you can't strike one with cold hands. Practice to know what works for you.

    I would have to go with "natural" string. Jute or hemp... Ratted-up it burns real well.
