These go on sale at Meritline pretty frequently. They're made of steel, not magnesium. They work OK but the the real ones work better since tou can shave magnesium fillings to help start the fire.

Niiiice. Fire starter from China of dubious quality. In for two.

Well you got me not so upset. I have a ferro-rod which I'm happy with. Hopefully you're right and they're comparable.
