Description

BPS Knives fire starter compatible with sheaths from a Ukrainian manufacturer. An alternative to matches and an accessory useful in emergency situations. Works with knife edges and fire starters (not included) from various manufacturers.

Handy Spark Arrestor for Adventurers

A fire starter made of top metal creates a spark when rubbed against a rough surface such as a knife, a fire starter, a multitool blade, etc. Commonly used by survivalists, bushcrafters, and hikers. Effective in storms and winds, where lighters and matches fail. Durable and resistant to weather conditions (rain, cold, snow, extreme heat, etc.). The spark generates temperatures of up to 3000 °C.

Tips on How to Use

  1. Place the rod in the center of the tinder (e.g. thin shavings, birch bark leaves). For ease, you can place the tinder on a harder surface (e.g. a piece of bark or wood) or in a depression in the ground.
  2. Set the knife or fire starter at an angle of about 45° to the rod. When using the knife, use the edge of the spine. Choose a knife with the appropriate sharpness of this edge. Ridges with a rounded (beveled) edge will work less efficiently with the fire starter.
  3. Start scraping along the rod of the fire starter, maintaining a 45° angle and applying a lot of pressure to collect the right amount of material from the fire starter.
  4. Run the knife or fire starter along the entire length of the rod to collect the material evenly.
  5. After lighting the spark on the kindling, withdraw your hands and fan the flame.
