Review on FOSTAR Replaceable Starter Compass Magnesium by Jake Jones

Revainrating 2 out of 5

You get what you pay for.

Looks nice but the rod doesn't have a good grip and comes loose with little use. You cannot put enough pressure on the rod to create a spark large enough to start a fire. And after the disconnection, it will most likely not be possible to fully reconnect because the streams are weak. Otherwise the bars themselves work. Except for the pin.

Pros
  • Emergency Fire Starter
Cons
  • Generally OK, but...
