Originally developed for the Swedish Department of
Defense, Swedish FireSteel is a flash of genius. Its 3,000°C spark
makes fire building easy in any weather, at any altitude. Used by a
number of armies around the world, Swedish FireSteel’s dependability
has already made it a favorite of survival experts, hunters, fishermen
and campers. It has also found its way into cabins and backyards as a
fool-proof way to light stoves and gas-barbecues.
