Summarized by Shop
The Hive Fire Starter™ is not your typical rounded Ferro Rod! The Hive is hexagonal with six flat sides. The flat sides have a larger surface area which results in more material being removed when striking, meaning larger showers of sparks! The Hive will make fast work of your fire lighting needs, here's why:
The Hive is available in two
The best ferro rod I've found. I love it! It's chunky construction makes it easy to use, particularly in younger hands. The sparks are huge which gets a fire started easily.
Once fire restrictions are lifted, I'll be posting a video review on my Facebook page Wayfarers Outdoors.

Excellent compact fire starter, like all FF ferrous rods they throw great sparks especially with the striker provided.
Great store to deal with, I've shopped here quite a bit over the past year and had nothing but great service.
