A good fire kit should work when nothing else does. This one’s built around that idea. Inside you’ll find a ferro rod that throws a shower of sparks, a fresnel lens for solar ignition, and fatwood sticks packed with natural resin that light even when wet. There’s also waxed natural rope tinder that holds an ember steady until your flame catches. Everything’s packed in a metal tin that rides easy in your pack and can double as a char cloth maker in a pinch. (a few kits may contain steel wool instead of waxed rope)
 
It’s not flashy. Just dependable. The kind of kit you can trust when the wind’s biting, the rain’s steady, and warmth isn’t optional.
