It’s one thing to see it done, know what you want to purchase to start your fire. However, it’s another thing to actually make your own fire! Take a look here and then practice making your own!
We do like that our host has given us the reasons why he feels this is an effective fire starter. Also, a few reasons why you might want to try another method, if they are available!
As said, we highly recommend learning more than one technique when starting a fire. Really experiment, as our host eluded to, and get your methods down pat.
When the SHTF you will not want to be caught unaware!

There are many different kinds and types of fire starters. You can never have too many! They’re cheap and they work. Every time you see one, pick it up. And you’ll be just fine. 🙂
Man I care that and a lighter with me always good to have
Quality straight from China
Psh Yea ok
Never support a country that will most likely be the reason you need the equipment to begin with.
How about you save some money, and buy the Harbor Freight one instead? Same stuff, $2.99(1.99 each with coupon).

A gallon of gas is my favourite go to method
Bic. Lighter…nothing beats a Bic..or two even..
Careful with your purchase, many Coleman, coughland and harbor freight are substandard, best I’ve used are USGI
I’ve had no problems with the Harbor Freight ones, and I have at least six of them in various BOB’s……….
Ernie Grizzly Anderson Anything beats a Bic lighter that’s empty……………………….
Pyro……….
Scott Paddock good to hear…GI one is only one has held up for me after many years….rod separates and fails and poor magnesium/aluminum block on all others I’ve used….
First and best I still use is by “Dones” or “Doanes”…. Kinda worn
And it’s made in China
Get China’s name off and make it in USA
That what I did , I bought a full case at the last parking lot sale
Excellent. I’ve carried something similar in my hunting belt for 25 years
