Over 5,000 FAT SPARKS:Most Ferro Rods give off tiny sparks, are hard to get leverage with, and even break after a few uses. The Fat Ferro Rod throws clusters of sparks that we callFAT-SPARKS, that light fires way faster and easier. Not only that but it can throw FAT-SPARKS PRACTICALLY FOREVER (over 5000 times.)
It's the biggest Ferro Rod: We could currently make that was still light weight enough to add practically no weight to any survival bag. It makes most Ferro rods look tiny...
Comes with a Quick Ignite Paracord Key Chain!
Lights Everything:TheFAT-SPARKS are so big and hot they practically light anything. Wet, Dry, Big or Small. Just look at this pre-burned fire rope below, already chard on the fringes. Your Fat Ferro Rod rains down a waterfall of sparks and quickly LIGHTS IT UP AGAIN.
It's just really cool: I like cool stuff for survival. This is one of the coolest and fun things created. Sparks are fun. FAT SPARKS are much more fun. Don't fire them at you friends, or sons, they complain after a while. It's just so EASY TO LIGHT STUFF.

great staff! Friendly and knowledgeable. He spent a lot of time with my grandson teaching him how to safely start fires for camping.
I've never lit a fire using flint before, but it was easy. I used a Vaseline soaked cotton ball and the spark set it afire on the second stroke. Very easy to use. Love it.
All of your products have been awesome so far. Glad to be your true survivalists we hope we never need them but it's great to have them if we do. Now I have to figure out how to carry it all. Haha. Thank you guys and keep sending the goodies.
I include the Fat Ferro Rod in a bin that I give to relatives and friends that is a supplement to a GHS (Get Home Safe) kit that I supplied previously. This supplement includes wool blankets, military ECS (Extreme Cold Weather) sleep system, water filtration, a tire inflator, several ways to make a fire, etc. and fits in a bin that can be put in the trunk of a car if you must bug out quickly. Several other Lone Survivalist items are included in the bin. JJD
I was very impressed by this piece of art! I did a small test while I was laying in bed after I got some of the protective coatings off, and it sparked, even though I did it straight up in the air, a spark traveled over 10 ft and went out just before It landed on my bed.
I have had many of these Ferris rods, some barely worked. One was a Magnesium Block with a small rod on its spine, but it was extremely tough to get a significant amount of magnesium down. I rarely could get it to spark enough to light the magnesium. The theory is sound because the pile of magnesium would ignite almost anything, even in a hurricane, on fire. But they didn't execute the product correctly. But now, with this rod and other equipment I've accrued over the years, I know how to get a large quantity of magnesium piled up with little effort and can easily ignite it now without worrying about burning my hands and lighting it with a lighter. I will post a video of it soon.
Because of all the different things on the market today to help start a fire in even wet conditions, magnesium isn't as popular, but nothing works like pure Magnesium. When lit, it will burn no matter what. Even underwater, during ignition, it creates Oxygen similar to old nitrocellulose films, which is why they banned it from busses and subways way back when. All the old movies and documentary films of the wars are kept in concrete rooms that are only about 5ftx5ft and above each room is enough water to fill the room to the ceiling, but that is only to keep the temperature down because even when wholly submerged it burns until it is completely consumed, some may have gathered by the name why, for those who don't know Nitro-Cellious was made partly of Nitroglycerin and the cellulose produced 0² as it burned, that's also why so many old movie theaters a long time ago burned down, also why in "Inglorious Bastards" they talked about how many movies She had. She replied with a very enthusiastic "A LOT!"
But back to the Item at hand, I would recommend this to be in everyone's B.O.B., but children should probably be supervised, and in my opinion, probably shouldn't have one of their own except when they are out camping. I only say this because they do throw a lot of sparks with little effort, and kids, being kids, could accidentally start a fire in a place that you wouldn't want!
I plan to buy several more for family members and a few like-minded friends; that's how much I like this product. Combine it with any of the Zippo camping products or Just some dry kindling, and you have one of the essential things needed to survive 2nd to water, but with fire, you can be sure your water is safe to drink. Remember, don't start the 10-minute timer until the water is boiling!
FFR is great compared to other starters I've used. When the FFR arrived I had to try it out and I was truly amazed, it lit the tinder the first or second strike. Great little tool! One heck of a spark.
shared with the kids, they thought it was great.teaching them to be ready for the event of emergency.great tool, carry one in the truck, and my tool bag. love it
This is one fantastic fire starter, it puts out more sparks than any other that I have used. And I've used a lot of them. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is an avid outdoorsman or camper of just to have for emergencies. If I could I'd give it ten stars. Thanks for the great products you offe.

Love your store and emails. I have taken advantage of several of your deals. And am probably over stocked in survival gear. If that is even possible. I need to have a survival bag in every vehicle we own to get us home. Way too many people in the Bay Area to seriously even think about an actual bug out location that wouldn’t be undiscovered by lots of other people in the Bay Area. But that is what I get for living in California.
I run Lone Survivalist with my 3 sons & a few good friends. This company would not be possible without Gods leading. 7 years ago, after a lot of prayer I left New Jersey and I went to the Shenandoah Valley in Virginia with my wife and 3 small sons. I left everything behind. I launched Lone Survivalist on a 25,000 dollar loan that I had no collateral for. It’s all I had. Since then we have helped over 165,000 Americans prepare for survival and sleep a bit better because of it. Much of the profit rolls right back into the company to continue to invent more gear for you at the best prices possible. Being a Christ centered company does not mean we are perfect but it does mean we do all we can, model, and point to the one who is: JESUS.
