I bought one because I am a survivor fan and I always wanted to see how fast I can build a fire with one of these. It's worth 7 bucks for me. Ha ha

If only there was a cheaper and easier to use version of this item that was sold at every gas station everywhere... a man can dream.

But seriously why not a lighter other than for novelty?

Can't you just buy a spare lighter?

If you get that unbundled twine wet, you're outta luck here too. (Yes, sure, the magnesium sticks will throw sparks forever. I get it. Just that any time your fuel is wet you're in trouble.)

Honestly, I've used flint & steel with charcloth and done the one-match fire contests, and wow it's easier to just have a lighter someplace dry in your pack when you're overnight camping.

Not to say these aren't fun. And there's nothing wrong with a little redundancy & diversification!

Looks to be sold out. I was excited to get one for my Survivor audition, but now I guess I will just have to figure it out there. Hoping this comes back in stock
