Fire Triangle Complete Kit

Kinda a neat little kit. Great for putting in an emergency pack in a car or something like that, or to just impress your friends when camping.

Good product

I've yet to use it in any real world capacity, but it's a great addition to my bug out bag, the one time I did use it to test it out it functioned great, and I like the waterproof container that holds everything.

This is going to be a Christmas gift for a young (but not too-young!) Scout. I appreciate the teaching on the package about the fire triangle.

Epiphany Outdoor Gear Weatherproof Fire Starting KitI purchased this kit because it contains everything needed to start a fire and it is in a water resistant container that keeps everything together and away from the rain. I tried this in the backyard during a moderate rain storm to see if it would allow me to get a fire burning. It worked as advertised and with a little wind and rain blocking with my body I was able to start a fire with dry paper and then moved onto the damp paper in the burn barrel.I gave 4 stars because I think it could be a bit less expensive but ultimately recommend this especially if you are the type (like me) that will tend to toss things in your backpack. This is kind of set up to make you keep it in the container so you don't have to search for the individual pieces. I am planning on purchasing one for each bag so everyone will have access to fire in a simple, easy to use kit.

It is a piece of antenna shaft with some fire starter and stuff. I think it is expensive, but if I had invented it I would say it's a must have camping tool. Seriously - if your tinder is damp and you are shivering from the cold this is worth it's weight in gold. It comes nicely packed in a waterproof tube and probably even floats, so suck it up and put one in your EDC bag.

This is a great little kit: great performance, light weight, acceptably priced, well made.The bellows is very well made, sturdy, and works extremely well. (Works well for fires in fireplaces too, but a little short for that use.) Buy it, carry it, use it!The "Baddest Bees" tinder fuses work extremely well. Compact, waterproof, fast-starting, hot burning. But be sure to tease them apart into little fluffballs before trying to light them. In contrast, cotton balls impregnated with petroleum jelly (e.g. Vaseline) are also compact, waterproof, fast-starting , hot burning, and they last longer (all once you tease them apart into fluffballs), and can be made cheaply at home, but your hands get greasy when handling them. The Baddest Bees seem to be wax-impregnated, so there's no greasiness, and they're more compact than cotton balls (but don't burn as long). You choose.The fire steel is a pretty standard product. This one has a nice, ergonomic plastic handle. It's a little short, but then this is a compact kit. You can easily get longer ones if desired.The fire steel striker has serrations on the short end. I found it awkward to use the end, but it strikes easily along the long edge.

Too expensive for what it is. Save your money and just get the bellows. The bellows are of very good construction and made of 300 series stainless steel. The bellows really work well, much better than I thought. I have been a bushcrafter for 20+ years and never heard of the bellows tube. The bellows are amazing when using on a small wood stove inside of a tent, you have a small coal in the morning... No problem! Throw a piece of split wood on top of a single small coal and use the bellows, in no time you have a roaring fire.The fire steel and striker sucks, looks like cheap Chinese goods.The fire fuses light easily and burn quickly, you're money is better spent on esbit tablets in my opinion.Better than fire fuses and free, dryer lint and Vaseline!
