The biggest Exotac firestarter, the fireROD XL™ is the bigger brother to the fireROD™ and has been brought to life by popular demand! Not only is it larger, but it also includes repair tape which can also be burned to aid in starting a fire.
The fireROD™ series was created to be the perfect fire starting tool for carry in a ferro-loop on a knife sheath. The ferrocerium rod is replaceable so you won't need to discard this tool when the rod is worn out. The design is simple, highly-reliable and offers plenty of storage for tinder or water purification tablets. Remove the top cap to reveal a large compartment that holds four quickLIGHT™ tabs (included) or tinder of your choice.
You can use the spine of your knife to strike the fireROD XL™. Many bushcrafting knives do not round over the edges of the spine leaving them sharp for use as a striking tool. The included Ferro rod is not only waterproof but replaceable as well. Simply unthread it from the body and thread in a replacement rod.
The approx. 30 cm of repair tape around the body can be used for patching holes, as an improvised bandage, creating bush-crafting tools or even as tinder (yes it's flammable!)
The fireROD XL™ is CNC machined, in house from USA high-grade 6061 aluminum then anodized for protection.
