Swedish Firesteel 2.0

Swedish Firesteel 2.0 is the new ergonomically redesigned flint and steel from Swedish Firesteel. Both models of flint and steel, army and scout, come with a built in emergency whistle into the handle of the striker. 2.0 keeps the same capabilities as the original models of flint and steel, same number of strikes, same temperature of spark, and equal amount of uses.

The handles have been redesigned making it easier to hold and easier to strike allowing you to make your fire quicker and without any pain from holding it. Adding the whistle with the flint and steel gives you an extra safety feature, especially if you get lost. It would allow you to make your fire and stay warm while blowing on the whistle until help arrives. You can purchase the scout model here or the army model here both through Moosineer Outdoor Gear.
