The ferrocerium rod generates intense sparks that easily ignite tinder even in challenging conditions. Reliable fire starting in wind and moisture.
After exposure to light, the handle glows in the dark, so you can quickly find the fire starter even at night. Greater safety and convenience on every trip.
The steel plate serves as a scraper, ruler, and bottle opener. Practical add-ons in one compact tool.
The NILS Camp NC1794 fire starter is designed for repeated, long-term use—offering up to 40,000 ignitions. The magnesium rod resists water and humidity, reliably producing sparks even in tough weather. The fluorescent handle glows in the dark after charging with light, making it easy to locate your gear at night.
Thanks to its thoughtful kit with a multifunctional steel plate (scraper, ruler, opener, scale), you can handle not only fire starting but also small tasks in the field. Its intuitive use suits beginners and advanced users alike—just prepare tinder, scrape a few shavings, and strike to create strong sparks.
Tip: Before first use, remove the black protective coating from the rod with a few passes of the scraper for maximum spark performance.
