How to Use the Fire Starter
The flint fire starter sits in the heel of the handle. Remove the knife blade, scrape the included striker (or knife spine) firmly down the flint rod to throw sparks onto dry tinder. It works reliably in wind and damp conditions when tinder is dry.
Replacing the Flint
The flint rod is press-seated in the handle heel. When depleted, pry out the remaining rod and seat a replacement ferro rod of matching diameter with epoxy — a common, low-cost fix that keeps the tool in service for years.
What Survival Tools Are Included
- Short, robust stainless blade for accurate cutting
- Flint fire starter for emergency ignition
- 110-decibel emergency whistle in the handle heel
- Whistle lanyard hole for carry
