WHAT IS A FERRO ROD?

Ferro Rods are made out of the metal Ferrocerium. When scraped with a sharp blade or striker they produce hot sparks to light any fire. They are sometimes called flint and steel but this is not true as flint is a different type of metal. Ferro rods produce hotter sparks than flint.

HOW TO USE A FERRO ROD?

Ferro rods, metal matches, are easy to use but do take some practice to start. Simply, hold the Ferro rod down at the base next to the fire starter you wish to light. Take a sharp bladed knife or striker and hold it 90 deg to the Ferro rod. Scrap down the Ferro rod in a quick motion. Slightly adjust your blade angle and speed until you get the desired sparks. You should be getting sparks that last at least a couple of seconds. These are the hot, fire-starting sparks you need.
