Exotac Men's Nanostriker Firestarter - Black, Small

Very poor, mine snapped first use leaving the thread filled inside the housing, wish I had bought two Swedish fire steels for the same money, glad it was just a trial and not an emergency, practice people!!!

Originalverpackung geöffnet, die Aluteile auseinandergedreht, und was stelle ich fest? Kein Feuerstahl enthalten... Ansonsten sicher ein schönes Produkt, leider nutzlos. Immerhin hatte ich vorsorglich einen Ersatzfeuerstahl bestellt, daher werde ich das Produkt trotzdem behalten.

Awesome

Great item to have on hand in case of emergency.

This thing is fantastic. I got the XL variant. The design itself is nice. It consist off 3 pieces: the striker, the rod holder, and the end cap. I like the fact that you can screw the end cap on the opposite end to give it more length while you use the striker. The end cap itself is textured to provide grip while you use it. The striker itself is pretty easy to use. I was able to get good sparks without trouble. The ferro rod stays nice and dry with it being encapsulated in the case. It is built well. I thought about buying others including the exotac firerod which is a larger rod, but I opted for this because it is waterproof. I was worried my ferro rod would corrode over time. This case helps prevent that. Another advantage is the rods are replaceable. The nanostriker is expensive, but I think it being waterproof and replaceable rods help justify the cost. Overall I think it is a great item.

What a great little striker! It's small, & ultra portable, at only 1oz weight but don't let this little guy fool you, it will throw some amazing plumes of sparks & HOT ones! The quality of the rod is obvious for anyone who's used the cheap ones & the design, & durability of the product makes it worth the premium price no question. Yes it's 4-5x the price of the cheap Os, but when it comes to FIRE in a survival situation or even a crappy rod making you look like a fool in front of your latest girlfriend you brought camping, you'll be glad you didn't cheap out! This is an excellent product & likely the only striker I'll ever use now. Time to get another one. :)
