$10- $15 alternative to the Zippo EFS works better...

Once again, Cutlerylover does a fantastic job, I'm a huge fan of him - this is in no way meant to be a criticism of anything he does. In fact, I will likely buy myself one of these Zippo EFS kits since I like collecting different ways of making fire. But, I saw this Zippo EFS thing and just wanted to share my thoughts on it...

See Cutlerylover's very well done demonstration here:

And his original review of this interesting kit here:

The Brunton Striker that I am using is here:

But it can be found cheaper if you look around...

Where can I buy one of the fire starters like you have ??? Thanks

[GadgetObsession]

@Fishermanfred1 I added a link to the video description. But you can also find similar ones cheaper at WalMart, REI, or Dick's Sporting Goods...

soak cotton pads into melted wax. works like a charm. totally waterproof.

[GadgetObsession]

@beholderlt that sounds interesting... I might try that - sounds less messy than cotton in vaseline...

[cutlerylover]

Thanks for the vid,. the old cotton ball with vasoline always works well...

[schwinnprotocol]
