Primitive Fire Starting Kit with Three Fire Methods and a MOLLE Pouch for Outdoor Preparedness
This primitive fire starting kit brings three different ways to make an ember into one organized setup for outdoor preparedness. Practice compression ignition with the fire piston, direct sparks onto tinder with the ferrocerium rod, or use the parabolic mirror when direct sunlight is available.
Each kit also includes a telescoping ember bellows to direct airflow into a fire lay and a MOLLE-compatible pouch to keep the tools together. Two digital guides cover tool techniques, tinder selection and outdoor preparedness. Tinder is not included; the solar mirror requires direct sunlight.
