Recently I held a training on gear for desert survival. One of the most popular items in my bag was this little fire starter, everyone wanted play with it and try it. Thought I would share.
The BlastMatch™ fire starter from Ultimate Survival Technologies generates three times the heat of a standard match.
- Designed for all-weather use, the BlastMatch performs well in marine, arctic, desert and jungle environments
- Spring-loaded flint bar rotates 360° to help prevent uneven wear
- Tungsten carbide striker is built into the thumb button, allowing simple one-handed operation; user must press button to engage the striker
- If the BlastMatch gets wet, simply wipe it off and it's ready for use
- Compact size lets you easily pack the BlastMatch on every adventure
Made in USA.
