What is your primary fire-making source? One that you feel you can count on despite all weather conditions. Rain, sleet, snow, sunny, cloudy, etc.....:euro:
On an everyday basis? I flick my Bic.
For a virtually GUARANTEED light for a warming/cooking fire? Cotton balls in Vaseline, WetFire Tinder Cubes, and this lighter:

Road flares.......or a BIC or Zippo.
A proven ferro rod with PJ cotton balls with a 22 hornet attachment
not counting underwater right?
matches have always worked pretty good for me with dry tinder. Give me some cotton balls soaked with flammable hydrocarbons, or Frito chips and a bic lighter if it is windy and/or wet.. Most times unless all my tinder is soaking wet I am pretty successful with a magnesium rod and a hack saw blade for a spark. I carry railroad flares in my vehicle all the time.
My igniter is:
1. Lighter
2. Matches
3. Ferro rod
My tinder is:
1.Fatwood shavings or splinters
2. WetFire
3. VSCB
I have some Tinder-Quik and even some smelly Coghlans fire starter paste that I picked up on the cheap but never used.
I too have road flares and even a butane stove that could be handy in a pinch.
I use a Gobspark Armaggedon firesteel and Tinde-Quik tinder or Tindercard (the stuff from Hammaro). Most of my kits also have either an ESBIT tablet or a Weber cube (vacuum sealed in mylar). So far I've never been in a situation where I couldn't get fire with this stuff. Of course, I always take at least a couple of lighters and some UCO matches, too.
That fire starter paste is great to heat up the generator of your white gas stove.Quote:

AND something to split the wet wood down to get to something dry that will light readily so that you can dry the rest out.
Along with the PJ balls, birch bark is every where in my local.
Everyday stuff, a bic mini lighter. Otherwise it's a ferro-rod when outdoors.
Bic or matches for me. I use vscb or small chunks of fire starter logs for tender if everything around me is soaked.
You should have at least one tin of fatwood.Quote:

Just carry a spare fero rod. The ones glued in those cheapies tend to fall off and get lost.
If you wrap it in duct tape it will keep the ferro rod in place. :whistling:Quote:

Now there's an idea. AND you'll have duct tape with you if you need it. Multi-purpose! Gotta love it.
+1 to this! When it comes to fire I try to leave my ego at home. I will try to keep my firemaking relatively primitive, relying on solid fire prep to get things going. But I always, always, ALWAYs have some fatfood as my "ace in the hole". With a firesteel/lighter/match/whatever as an ignition source, some tindercard/tinderquik as a bridge between tinder/kindling/fuel and a couple ESBIT cubes, I know that I'll be able to get the fatwood going...and that WILL get fire, in almost any conditions, if you've done a remotely competent job of fire prep.Quote:
