Description
The EDC Fire Kit is a compact, lightweight and highly effective fire lighting kit, designed to allow its user to quickly and reliably get a fire started regardless of weather conditions.
For fire ignition, the EDC Fire Kit combines a ferrocerium (fire steel) rod with a durable striker, making ignition a quick and hassle-free process.
The kit comes with its own supply of water-resistant tinder, in the form of waxed jute Tinder Sticks, which will readily catch a spark and ignite, and can be used as a lighting splint that will burn for three minutes. A magnesium rod is also included; using the striker this can be scraped into a powder and added to your tinder bundle to further boost its ignitability in adverse weather conditions.
The EDC Fire Kit also doubles as dry storage for matches and gathered tinder, and incorporates two match-striking surfaces for safety matches and strike-anywhere matches, offering an additional firelighting method.
The kit comes with a detailed instruction sheet, with explanations for starting and building fires, the survival uses of fire, and the additional functions of the kit.

Another great product from Polymath! I am truly amazed that you can put so much stuff together in one compact, light, well thought-out and reasonably priced piece of kit. I’ve already tried this out this afternoon in wet and windy conditions and started a fire first time. Having already put together my own fire lighting kit I saw this and had to have one, it’s the cherry on the cake! However, if you’re just starting out in bushcraft and beginning to put your first kit together; Get This, it’s all you’ll need, you will not regret it. Excellent. Thanks again.
