Designed for all-weather use, this fire-starting system performs superbly in the most extreme marine, arctic, desert, and jungle environments, and never fails to light in the wind, rain, or snow. The BlastMatch generates a stream of sparks three times the heat of a standard match and easily will light any material (wood, paper, bark, cloth, or man-made fire starting tinders). If the BlastMatch becomes wet, simply wipe it off and it is ready for use. At the heart of the BlastMatch is a custom bar of high performance flint material. Spring loaded for compactness, the flint bar also rotates 360 degrees to help prevent uneven wear and tear. A tungsten carbide striker build into the striker button is set at the perfect angle for maximum sparking - taking the guess work out of starting a fire. Incorporated into the BlastMatch is a safety feature to prevent inadvertent ignition when accidentally plunged.
