Grab Life Outdoors Premium XL Ferro Rod Fire Starter
One essential piece of gear that every outdoor enthusiast should have is a quality fire starting device. This device should be able to provide the necessary means to make fire in adverse weather conditions, when you need it most. Your fire starter should not be affected by temperature, altitude or anything else mother nature has in store. The only fire starter to rely on when your survival is on the line is a quality ferro rod by GLO. A quality ferro rod will never let you down and should be an essential part of every emergency kit.

At Grab Life Outdoors we manufacturer the highest quality ferro rods available. At a hefty 1/2″ thick high our quality rods are good for over 23,000 strikes and will produce heaps of 5,500º F ferrocerium that will ignite quality tinder in all weather conditions.

Premium Hardwood Handle
Our premium natural hardwood handles are hand fit and epoxied in place for a firm grip allowing you to draw the rod back as you strike for greater control and a huge shower of sparks. The handle can even be used as emergency tinder in a survival situation.

Multi Function Striker Included
Our included 6 function multi tool striker gets the job done and doubles as a tinder scraper, bottle opener, hex socket, ruler and map scale. We couple this with approx 36″ of mil spec 550 paracord set up as a neck lanyard for convenient carry.

Great product! I teach a fire building class in our outdoor education (science camp) program for 5th-8th grade students. These Firesteel Fire Starters work great and will withstand a lot of use. Great product!High Sierra Outdoor InstituteGrass Valley, CA

Perfect addition to my Benchmade Bushcrafter I bought this ferro rod because I wanted something to fit the loop on my Benchmade Bushcrafter. Initially I was worried the 1/2″ rod would be too large but it actually fit. Initially a little snug but now fits like it was made for it. I have included a picture showing how I have it set up. All in all I am very happy with this set up.

Nice addition to my camping gear. Works great with the right technique and a little practice. Just scrape away the black protective coating and within a few strikes you’ll be making sparks. Keep the rod as close to your tinder as possible and concentrate the sparks on your tinder pile. With quality tinder you will get a flame in no time. Fun to use and I will be getting several more for my backpacks and vehicles.
