Kupilka FireSteel 8 is an ignition steel that creates hot sparks up to 3000 degrees.
Even if FireSteel 8 gets wet, it will never stop working. This makes it perfect for starting any kind of fire.
The associated "striker", i.e. the piece of metal that is pulled onto the lighter, is a residual product from the metal industry. This in combination with the fact that the leather cord (pure leather) is ethically produced and that the handle is made of Careline (50% wood fiber and 50% plastic) makes the whole thing a very humane product.
Thanks to the solid handle, you can easily grip the FireSteel 8 with gloves on. This essential tool is a must for all outdoor enthusiasts!
The thickness of the ignition steel is 8 mm, which gives it the name FireSteel 8. The ignition steel rod itself is the most important part of a good ignition steel. This is created to be hard enough to last but soft enough to be easy to use and produce great sparks. This provides maximum function over time.
The design is a partnership between Kupilka and Karu Survival (a leading company specializing in bushcraft and survival skills training).
Made in Finland, the lighter rod comes from an EU country. The striker is a residual product from the metal industry.
