Introducing the überleben Kräftig. Crafted from solid 1/2″ ferro rod.

Choose the rod length, its available in three sizes. 3-inch, 5-inch or 8-inch.

Size 5 inch. The Kräftig is 5″ long with a shock cord lanyard and 6-function multi-tool scraper, which includes a bottle opener.

Size 8 inch. If you think 8-inches of thick, high quality ferrocerium is overkill, you’re right. And sometimes overkill is exactly what you’ll need. Our gnarliest ferro rod to date.

Product Features

  • SIMPLE, YET OVERKILL- Zero fail points. Above & beyond is exactly what we strive for. Extreme dependability, in every situation. Overkill is never a bad thing. Especially when life may depend on it.
  • BEST FERRO BLEND, PERIOD – Überleben’s Sånft-korr ferrocerium is the perfect balance between softness & durability, consistently outperforming the leading fire starters. Easily throw a 5,500ºF shower of molten sparks in any weather (waterproof), at any altitude.
  • MULTIPLE SIZE OPTIONS – Available in both 5″ and 8″ lengths, both versions will easily yield 20,000+ strikes. Probably more. This isn’t our lightest ferro rod, but it’s probably our best.
  • SHOCK-CORD LANYARD – Allows for multiple securing options, and flex-versatility when striking. Includes Multi-tool striker (straight-edge spine, concave tinder scraper, map scale, ruler, hex wrench… and most importantly, bottle opener).
  • HASSLE FREE GUARANTEE – If you’re not stoked, we’re not stoked. You shouldn’t pay for something you don’t love. If for any reason you’re not absolutely thrilled with your Kräftig, let us know. We’ll fix it.

Make sure you get the proper length! Good quality. Easy to use (just have to get the knack of it and scrape off the outer coating) but not as pictured because I didn’t pay attention and ordered the 5″ instead of the 8″You would have to be under water to not be able to get the sparks off the 5″ one but come on size matters 🙂 I wish I noticed the size drop down on the order page. Also the 5″ one is a perfect cylinder not tapered like the photo of the 8″ one.

Make a nice handle for your firestick from a rawhide boot lace Make a nice handle for your firestick from a rawhide boot laceI chose the 8” model with the intent of adding a handle using just a strip of 1/8” wide rawhide boot lace. When completed four and a half inches remain exposed. Considering it’s a half inch stick that should be good for a very long time. I did not like the feel of the raw rod in my hand, and pictured it when very cold.Materials:1. The 8” long half inch firestick…
