 Disapppointing August 29, 2007
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I got this item primarily for the Firesteel, however since I collect knives, this looked like an item I would like. I will echo the comments folks have made regarding the price of Firesteel being a bit on the high side and add it to this item as well. I was able to easily make an abundance of sparks with the tool. The knife has the weight and feel of recycled aluminum and is dull by my standards. Isn't close to being sharp enough for camping or hiking type tasks in my estimation. I would expect something approaching razor sharpness in a product in this price range. The sharpness can be addressed but not the quality. Overall it has a pretty flimsy feel (I'd be afraid of bending or snapping the blade off in any moderate to heavy usage). It is Ok as a conversation piece, but I'll stick with my old mangnesium bar fire starter and one of my quality knives for my uses.
 Very cool! Also has undocumented features. March 11, 2007

This works as advertised, although it takes some practice to start a fire with just a spark. Some features that aren't in the description: the compartment on the back will hold a Mag-Lite Solitaire - that's the little single AAA flashlight, or you can pull the fire starter rod out of the lid and use the compartment as a waterproof container (matches, anyone?) or pill box! Cool! It is made in Seki Japan, the same place where most Spyderco knives are made. The blade is 420J2 stainless. The liner lock is easy to operate one-handed, and the whistle is LOUD. I'm very pleased with it. A great deal for all it does.
