I was watching my son do some cutting with an acetylene torch yesterday whenever it hit me. Use a torch striker to make a fire. Think about it, you have a bowl for your tinder, a striker, and flint.
I got a little dryer lint and rolled it into a semi-round ball and set it down in the bowl of the striker. On the second strke, I had a fire. The idea worked and to make sure, I did it a second time and it worked also.
I thought that I would pass it along to you guy's in case you want another option in your BOB for fire making.
