Using a ferro rod is all about technique, that in 2021 is learned by watching good videos and then practicing starting fires. I went out today and bought my first ferro rod for $3.99, after watching about 2 hours worth of bushcraft videos on how to use them. It took me 3 minutes to start my first fire with one, on a paper towel. I then started my second fire on a piece of rotted softwood in about 2 minutes. $3.99 vs $60.00? $3.99 is working just fine for me.

Love the review and a great little peace of gear. Thinking out of the box made one great little fire starter. I will definitely be getting one. Two thumbs up on the review, just wish I had one for my trip in the Flint Hills today.

For me it boils down to two simple questions. Does it work as good as it claims? Is it going to have a massive impact on being able to help me live in a real emergency? If the answers are yes, then its worth twice the asking price, because my life is certainly worth that and more! Great video, thanks!!

I have a 9 and 6 year old that have one for emergency reasons in their get home bag and for the price of cheap Nikes my sons can use this without any problem or worry. I appreciate the review. Just like all of your reviews I believe you are honest, to the point and I learn every time I watch them. Thanks

so..thanks i will make one out of copper pipe and cork and a solid big ferro rod

Chris - thanks for the video. Yes, it is pricey at $60, but a combustion source that is nearly 100% dead on reliable in a survival situation, I contend it is well worth the price. Also, I would rather give a U.S. company $60 for a great product than $25 to a Chinese company. Thanks for the video!

The hardest part about doing a review like this is thinking the product is great but also knowing that 98.4% of the people watching it are going to have a stroke when they hear the price. But maybe that is something they need to see. Give your thoughts on the device and the price separately.

I had seen this product somewhere else and thought the exact same thing you did. "I have to get a couple of those." Then I found the site and saw the price. Too rich for my blood. It doesn't "solve" any problems it just makes things easier. I wonder if they could get the price down by selling it without the firesteel and without the tinder. The site lists tinder refills as $10 and the rod is prob close to $10 and no manual labor to put things together.

I like how you show the packaging, unless you've lost it. You do seem to lose a lot of stuff. Lol! People like you are why they make lanyards! Good work.

Well done sir, you set it up so I was expecting a WAY more outrageous price. 60 Bucks is a bargain compared to the price I was expecting :)

That was a great review of a great product. I had the same reaction when I saw their video and went to buy one on their web site. So before I invested 60.00 + dollars I just had to see a no BS review. Thanks.

Really looks like an awesome survival tool. Thanks for the info.

Chris when you were hesitating to tell us how much it costs I was thinking to myself Oh crap this thing is going to be like $200. $60 for a life saving emergency piece of equipment is not a lot of money, it's perfect for a bug out bag. I think I would conserve it, and not pull it out of the bag every time I went out in the woods. You could make it even better if you put a misch metal rod in there, hell that would make it a weapon too. Mike

You sure have a way of putting things into perspective. Great review.

Great piece of kit !

love the videos keep up the great work

Great job, Chris ! Tradron MD

Hey Chris. First I wanna say that I really appreciate all your videos. Thank you. I recently heard about a Fire Piston. I had no idea they existed until now. Not a lot of people know what they are. I was hoping you could do a review on the "Vulcan Fire Piston". Thanks again for ALL of your insight.

Awesome video as usual, say where did u find those zip blocks I couldn't find them anywhere ?

Well, I hope you are getting a piece of the action. I just went and bought the red one with extra tinder- $70 + unknown shipping until they process the order tomorrow. Good stuff...

I have one and love it. Great review man.

wow this is my 1st look @ this product... Awesome!

nice review thanks for sharing

Bought one a year ago an definitely worth it. I was on the fence for awhile and glad I bought one. Spark is larger than my light my fire and easier to light stuff with.

I agree ! Good honest review, thank you.

Nice info thanks, on wish list

Very cool, I like that the striker channel has a stop at the end... With a naked rod It is SO easy to swipe off the end and knock your tinder away from the sparks. This thing is as close to idiot proof as any fire starting method I have ever seen!

Walter Cunniff Really? you spent energy deciding to post that to me? wow, we could sit here try and come up with every little scenario to disclaim every device known to man. Did you invent this device? Do you represent these folks of this device. So now it's just a an emergency device? Really? So for several times the cost of a bic lighter, this is only good for emergencies. Hmm. Btw, if you have a broken arm out in the wild, you have alot more problems than trying to use a striker/ferro rod. Same with if your hands are so cold, that you can't properly use a stiker/ferro rod. Btw, this guy didn't even invent this device. He is testing it, it's not his place to say what the device is meant for. I've been making fires for 40 yrs, when as a young Boy Scout, earned a badge by making a fire and cooking a meal with nothing but a single match. Then went on to join the Marine Corps and learned more ways to start fires. I make and own Compression fire starters and have every means to start a fire. Even this guy says that this device solves the problem of regular striker/ferro rods where the sparks go everywhere except to the tinder. I was addressing that issue. IMO, the reason for that is improper technique of a striker/ferro rod, hence my explanation. Maybe you could provide something we can use, instead of trying to get on her and be pompous, I would have to call you an idiot.

@ChromeDragon1969

cchgn Lol. I like the fact that you mentioned you were a Boy Scout and earned your Merit Badge for fire making. So did I, almost 40 years ago. Of course, I had been making fires and cooking on them for years before I was a Boy Scout. I spent the first 19 years of my life in a little hamlet called Indian Lake, in the central Adirondack State park, where bushcraft was a way of life. You were in the Marines. I respect that more than you probably know. I spent 8 years in the Army 10th SFG. Yeah, I learned more ways to make fire as well. Everyone knows that a Bic lighter is the most widely used fire starter on the planet. Sometimes they do not work. I have had brand new Bic lighters not work due to freezing temperatures. (When I got home it worked fine) Having a fool proof back up is a good idea. This product, in my opinion, is just that. Anyone can use it with zero training. That makes it an impressive emergency tool. I realize that he is only doing a product review. That is why I watched the video. I wanted to see if the hype matched the product after watching the official product video on their website. As for technique with a fire steel, I find that pinning the tinder under the tip of the rod and striking straight down into it works the best for me. It offers more control over the spark distribution and with proper body placement, blocks most winds from interfering. As for being pompous... That was never my intention. I was merely pointing out that the technique that you use, or even my technique, will not work if you are suffering from hypothermia or an injured limb. Yes you do have more issues than starting a fire if you have a broken limb. However. That fire will afford you the ability to signal for help and treat your injury more completely. Thanks for the return comment. Walt

I had mine for 3 years so far love it

That shit cost $70,,,,A ZipLock bag with some dry news paper and a Bic lighter in your bug out pack would accomplish the same emergency fire starting .... Smart is being effective without spending a bunch of money to be fashionable at the same time.

Agree, too many people rely on "gear". Knowledge is what will save you. Gear gets consumed a.k.a it can only be used so many times (think this ferro rod, it will eventually wear out), or will get lost or stolen or fail. IMO, one of the most important skills to learn is flintknapping. It's nice to have all that stuff, but eventually it won't do you any good.

I just stumbled on this. brilliant!

as always your reviews are awesome thanks! (UK)

Awesome review my man...I would buy one based on what you demonstrated and said.

I got one. Worth every penny. I like the design. Like you say there are some limitations but it works easily and you can always find it.Got The red color can see it anywhere. Thanks for the info.

I may add it to my just gestating bug out bag. Very new to the practice.

I like it.. I like the concept and from what I saw I like that it actually works as designed. I ordered one from Amazon for $67.50 and free freight. It doesn't weigh anything so it won't bother me but it will sure start every fire for me. Thanks for the heads up!

You're right it is a great product and as such worth the price if you can afford it. I have a work around however, I had an old mini mag flashlight in the garage and I made my own version with a Dremel tool. It's actually more compact and showers sparks even tighter than my actual official Holland Gun brand striker. In addition a belt holster for the mini mag was already on the market.

great review, awesome looking gear

"Hey.......knock it off, fire!"

Chris what's the weight on it? I use zip starters but I have to fluff them a little to light them with a fero rod.

Great and well conceived product, easy and safe to use and if the fire rod is done you can replace it easily (naked rods are mostly cheaper than a new firestarter). Well, 60$ (or ~44€)...i think it is worth the price. Thanks for the review, Chris!

Hi there, I Cannot Fins this item anywhere near in The Netherlands, Europe. Is there anyway it can be introduced to some outdoor/survival (web) store I. The Netherlands? I would be really interested to purchase one...

Regarding loosing your gear, try a strip or two of reflective tape that matches your gear, you won't loose gear as much and it will identify it as yours and not your friends in a camping trip or something. I like your videos quite a bit, keep up the good work.

This is the first review, Actually the first vid I've ever watched of yours and I have to say man you nailed it. Very good on demo, practicality and then what most of us watching these vids are going to care the most about, because we can all start a fire but I agree whole heart'd that at the price it is a ABSOLUTE emergency tool... Yet I did get 1 and I came to the same conclusion you did. It'll be in the not used very often kit but it is a great tool.. Look forward to your other contributions. Thanks

+William Burr Very good point!

I have one in my wife's car bag. She doesn't go out or practice near like I do and this is a piece of mind for me, when I'm not around.

I was checking these out awhile back I seen the father and son doing a video on these and like you said if it is going to save your ass in a life or death scenario there is not a price on your life I totally think it is worth the money

one thing I'd be curious about is how water proof the container is. It looks pretty water proof, and I bet it floats well, but that's always a concern of mine. Both my bug out bags are WW era german mountaineer packs with are rubberized super heavy duty canvas for that reason. Have yet to find a modern equal.

I use a welders Stryker. Just squeeze and you have Sparks. The enclosed head keeps the Sparks moving toward your tinder.

hmmm how many uses i get out of the lightning strike? can i change the ferro rod inside?

This is truly an amazing product. I got mine in and within minutes I was smiling, this is even *better* than advertised.

I agree with his statement. Even look that with injury or lost of fine movement you could use the device.

Saw these on Darrell Holland's site a bit of time ago and was immediately impressed by the design. Took a shot at two, one for each vehicle's emergency kit. (They were only $56 then IIRC.) As you said, Chris. They are bomb proof built and work like a champ. Great addition to my emergency fire/water kit. Not cheap, but neither is hypothermia to deal with...

I just visited the website for the firestarter and noticed they offer a "mini-lightning strike" as well. I was hoping for a reduced cost to match the size difference........not so much......its the same price. Unfortunately!! Still, as a "once in a liftime" type of item, ( it IS an "investment" rather than a "terminal" item.) In that respect it isn't TOO much to spend, if you think about it IN that respect. Still a GREAT product from your demonstration and review! Based on that, as soon as its feasible, I will buying ONE! (Surely not 5, as YOU said!) Thanks for the review!. Love your videos! Keep up the good work!

I got a question , do they sell the replacement rod for them ? because I see that yours after a week only, is pretty worn out.Thanks

How long would you expect something like this to last, do they have a use limit?

Good review. ...very awesome item. .. Great vid!

where do you have to go to get one and how much do they cost?

My flint and steel with a little bit of char cloth does the trick for me. I get ignition every time. The steel never wears out and you can find chert or quartz everywhere.

I'm 7 years late to this video, but I wanna say I get this product. There's the $100 BK9, then there's the $300+ BRK Bravo Crusader. Both work incredibly well, it all comes down to preference sometimes. That being said, $60 is quite steep...

Chris, great video. Looks like an outstanding fire starter. I checked your on-line store, but couldn't locate the item, after looking in quite a few catagories. I'd prefer to purchase it from your store if I can.

Not sure if you covered it but a great thing about it, is you can also use it with one arm. Just point it at your tinder, step on it with your foot and strike it with your good arm! Pretty awesome tool!

Pretty awesome waste of money. A UST Sparkie, a UST Sparkwheel, a Long Bang brass striker, a Spark Lite, a Zippo Striker with tinder, or a UST Blast Match will all work MUCH better one-handed to spark a fire, and all 6 combined are $12 less than one Lightning Strike.

I paused the video and went over to amazon to see if they had it. I already figured it would be expensive but honestly didn't expect that. I'm still going to get one, I think it's worth it as well...

yeah, the price shocked me too but I'm still getting one because it works as soon as you need it, no messing around with anything just fire. it is what it is.

Great idea. Great design. If I had the money.. If I was going hunting in, say, Greenland - I would have one in my kit along with an expensive sleepingbag, expencive knife etc.

seems a great fire starter but it's a bit bulky, plus it looks like a soft rod so how easy is it to get a replacement, and how much would it cost?

Hey Chris I have 2 things to say: First of all you are awesome Seconedlly what is the knife u used?

Good product could of used it when I was in the mil. But I think I WILL wait 4 the price to come down ......alot thanks 4 vid

I agree that it is a very nice piece of kit. Per their web-site, they offer a tinder refill option for $10, but no ferro-rod refill (?). I like the look of the red one, my favorite color. Thanks again for another great video. Good Luck and Godspeed, danofiremano

No replacement ferro-rod----I noticed this too on the selling site. The ferro-rod which is used in the Lighting Strike is suppose to burn twice as hot as normal ferro-rods but the selling site does not offer any for sale. The fire starter pads seem to contain something more volatile than petroleum as seen when the cotton pads ignite. If this item were kept for real emergency situations, I wonder if the pads work as well after a year or two or more of storage if kept for a true survival/emergency situation. I think the price is fine. True, many can make something similar for a lot less money but there are also many who do not have the skills, interest, or equipment to make one of these and so would prefer to buy it.

great review. totally agree with your take on it. for emergency kit, pilot, trucker, ect. I think you are right about the production cost. I think if the makers were to license it to a bigger company that has capital and supplies to produce it cheaper they can totally drop that price. It would sell like crazy if you they did that. Holland Guns is that the name? well they should consider it(I think they are considering the "patent pending" written on the side.). hold on guys, I think once the business deals are done it'll hit your major outlets soon.

I miss mine already. Going to Survival On Purpose next for his review. As soon as that June paycheck hits I'm going to get a red one. I know its pricey but I actually think it's worth it. Used my Spark Force to light a swedish torch earlier and wished I had that lightning strike. Would have shaved a few minutes and less ferro rod.

The problem, as with most people these days, is in your technique. Understand the underlying concepts, pay attention to detail and practice, practice, practice! Most of my fires with Flint (the rock) and Steel, ferro, match, etc are ignited with a single strike. Almost all with 5 strikes or less and I use every tinder imaginable. As I've told many people, "If you're flailing away, you're training to fail."

How well does this work wet? Almost everything you lit was designed to be easily lightable in perfectly calm and normal weather. Let's see how this thing works when it's raining and all you have is what is around you. There is no way in the world this thing is worth $60. You could buy 20 bic lighters and seal them in plastic and have enough money left over to buy a case of beer with what you would save. Did you receive any compensation at all for this review?

It's still the best at what it does. I actually used it in the video going up tomorrow. If this thing cost $20 EVERYONE would have it.

Holland's video 'demonstrating' the LS against the competition said all I need to know about the company.

good video... Nice fire steel device... the price? I agree.. Felt the same way about the fire piston... which on average...on Ebay are expensive too.

Thoughts, what does this do that a normal ferro rod does not? there is only one thing that I can see, concentrates the sparks in a small area. Is the ability to concentrate the sparks on a smaller area worth $60 plus shipping? I can't see it saving my life when a bic/normal ferro combo won't

Chris, You make several valid points in the video. In turn I, purchased two. and got an extra tinder bundle included for free. Keep up the good work on the videos.

6:54 only you can prevent forest fires

o.0 What the heck happened to that tuft of starter tinder? Did you check at the time to make sure it wasn't catching on fire anything where it landed?

hello buddy, just to let you know ,the principle of this,was taught to me in basic survival and field craft, we was taught to improvise this method though as part of the survival kit, i have made them with copper tube and ally tube, i found tampons soaked in fluid and vasaline then placed inside condoms worked well, its very simple to build one and keep it in your ,shits gone south kit :) it is however very shiny, much like the quick boil stoves and the 'gucci' kit nice vid though mate. i would happily go into the woods in your company and feel confident.

I could honestly accept the price for something like an emergency vehicle kit. Alot of people dang near froze this past winter in the south due to those snow storms and being stranded on highways.

Is it possible the compressed kerosene block would have been harder to light *without* the plastic wrapper? Plastic goes up quite easily and burns pretty good (being a petroleum product)

Thanks for the info Prep, I think its worth the 60 bucks for the wife or kid that's just starting to learn. After that you'll always have it in the glove box or emergency kit somewhere. You get the thumbs up.

The review was great. I Really like the lightning strike as a sure fire idea. I am glad you did the review BUT, the absolute best part was the "story about waking up on Saturday next to a donkey and then the donkey Kicks you in the face. I was laughing so hard! Thanks for putting it in perspective in a way that will make me laugh everytime I see the product.

Great review and testing. Considering the quality it is worth the price. Can't put a price on surviving.

Chris, I was watching the video that they have on the company site and was kind of going back and forth whether to get it or not. But then he talked about having an arm injury and used the product one handed to start a fire and that was a seller. Other than a lighter, no other fire starter is going to let you effect fire one handed.

seen there video and your right this is a small outfit and they just sstarting up. so the price will go down eventualy. great review and one point to consider is the aluminum body is reusable. if the rod wear out you replace it with a refill wish is bringing down the price overall. Great product, pricy but great anyway. thanks for the review. as wingman says quality product come with a price.

Ok im definitely going to make my own and it would not be very hard to make . I will make mine a little smaller so it will be easier to pack i dont need as much fire tinder as that one carries. Mainly its the idea of shooting sparks from a tube . Aluminum or ss tubing and a fire rod with a lanyard hole . I will probably thread the ends with a tap and die and will probably use a bolt and nut or a pin or cotter pin etc...

its a great backyard bushcraft (yardcraft) tool! need the fire but havn't spent the hours to get good with a ferro rod then boom, its like a cheat code.

One of our Assistant Scoutmasters received this item as a gift from his son. At a weekend camp out he demonstrated the starter. It worked great. I wanted to see if it would light my MSR Firefly camp stove. We turned on the stove and on the first strike the stove lit. After seeing this I ordered it as soon as I returned home. Not only as a tinder starter it works great on propane stoves. The price is a little high, but this may be the last fire stater I buy.

Amazon has them for $67.50. Of course, they also have the UST Sparkie, a UST Sparkwheel, a Long Bang brass striker, a Spark Lite, a Zippo Striker with tinder, or a UST Blast Match, all of which are easier to use one-handed than the Lightning Strike. Also, you can buy all 6 for $55.42, which is over $12 less than the LS.

The behemoth of a fire starter for sure! I didn't see it do anything a dozen other flint/steel starters haven't.
