Excellent fire rod and tinder wick. Works like a charm. I use this in my emergency kit for canoe and packraft trips. Overall, FF is easy to use, well-thought-out quality gear. I highly recommend it.
Pocket Fire Kit | Includes 3" Hive Fire Starter™
Reviews£19.95
DESCRIPTION
We've carefully selected the components to cover essential fire-lighting steps: preparation, ignition, fuel, and oxygen supply. It includes everything needed to get a fire started in all weather conditions. The weight and size have been reduced to the absolute minimum.
The Ferro Rod | 3" Hive Fire Starter: The rod is hexagonal with six flat sides for a bigger striking surface, creating larger showers of sparks. The thick rod also allows for up to 20,000 strikes. Made with our Forest Fundamentals ferrocerium blend: large showers of molten sparks, but not too soft, ensuring longevity.
Stealth Fire Strikers | Ultimate Ferro Rod Strikers: Made from heat-treated steel, the strikers include 4 hex bits, a beveled straight-edged tinder scraper/prying tool, and also function as a bottle opener—a pretty handy feature when sitting around a campfire!
Paraffin-Infused Wicks: Extremely slow-burning (30 minutes burn time). The wick will not extinguish in high winds and will ignite even after being submerged in water. With preparation, just 0.5" of the wick is needed to get a fire started. To extinguish, simply pull the wick back into the bellows chamber.
Micro Pocket Bellows: If your fire needs some attention, you can simply pull out the wick and blow through the micro-bellows. The bellows make it possible to direct oxygen into the heart of the fire without singeing your hair off!
Handmade Waxed-Canvas Fire Mat: This versatile mat provides a stable base off damp ground for processing tinder shavings and using ferro rods. It's common to ignite the tinder on the mat and then transfer the flame into the tinder bundle.
The mats are handmade using thick 12oz cotton canvas and waxed using Martexin Original Wax for waterproofing and flame protection. Inside, there's a durable ABS plastic insert that ensures the mat stays rigid during use.
550 'Survival Cord' Lanyards: Includes materials such as copper wire, fishing line, waxed jute, and parachute cord. These materials serve a multitude of purposes in the field, including repairing shoelaces, fishing, constructing snares, building shelters, and more.

Another excellent purchase from Forest Fundamentals I actually divided the kit out, putting the jute wick and micro bellows into a different tin that is carried my knife sheath (with its own ferro rod), but added some fat wood to the original tin with the ferro rod and little tinder mat, which is perfect for fat wood scrapings Two different kits for two different load outs. Very happy
Fantastic little kit with amazing quality that fits in my pack well
Fantastic piece of kit, will be coming back for more gear.
Very clever design and materials as always from F.F. Much easier to move the Flame to the Tinder or use as a Taper into a Twig Stove. Decanted from Tin and stashed in a tiny pouch with a few Fire Plugs as a reliable back up or even as a compact reliable primary kit. Strikes very well and works a treat.
Great product, sturdy tin, the kit inside is well made and will greatly aid my bushcraft journey.
Great product quality service
I purchased the Pocket Fire Kit and was extremely impressed with the quality of it and the components. It feels like very good value for money and will bet a very good addition to my fire kit.
excellent piece of very portable kit, (larger versions would also be nice) :)
Fast delivery good quality well packaged with eco friendly materials 👍👍👍
Smaller than I was expecting, which makes it even more portable! Not had chance to use it in anger but feels great and a really handy little kit.
Bought for a present - my 15 year old nephew is very happy with it.
It was bought as a present so hasn’t been opened or used yet so I can’t review the product. There was a slight delay with the order but Elvis kept me informed of what was happening which was appreciated.
Great delivery great product
Great little kit and cool to impress friends with
Decent bit of kit at a good price. Very well thought out and well made. Worked beautifully when I tested it at home, looking forward to testing it out in the field! Swift despatch and excellent communication on a follow-up query I had 👌
Nice little kit in a compact tin. The stealth fire starter works really well, lights easily. The little tinder mat is a nice touch providing a dry spot for ember collection or fat wood shavings.
Great product and excellent service
Great little kit, does what it's intended to! The lid of the tin slides off too easily (the little dimple isn't big enough to keep the lid in place) - otherwise I'd give it 5 stars. The customer service from FF was excellent - my original order never arrived but there was no hesitation from Elvis about sending out a replacement and his response to emails was timely. The original order eventually turned up and will be returned.
Great little kit, quality product at a decent price and good customer service from Elvis at Forest Fundamentals.
Get little kit, I have it as a back up if my flint and steel fails. The ferro rod and scraper are excellent, throw out loads of sparks that fizzle. The jute rope catches light almost instantly from them, burns really slowly and extinguished immediately when pulling back into the tube. All fits together into a tin a bit smaller than a 2oz tobacco tin, so nice and compact. All in all very pleased with the purchase!

Store owner replied: Many thanks for your great review, much appreciated. Forest Fundamentals
The delivery was fast and the kit was exactly as described, only it to make 2 fires so far but everything worked as it should.
