The Faststrike tool is a ferrocerium high-energy sparking rod and a hardened steel hacksaw blade. This simple and compact sparking system is more reliable than others, including flint-based lighters, because it has no mechanical parts and works when wet. The Faststrike system is also flexible for multiple tasks. When not needed for striking the sparking rod, the hacksaw blade can be used for cutting various materials, including metals, and produces excellent saw dust for use as additional tinder material.
