Highlander Magnesium Fire Starter
The Highlander Magnesium Fire Starter is quite a unique piece of survival kit; it works by shaving off some of the magnesium block using the scraper. You then run the striker down the flint rod to produce a spark, that will instantly light the magnesium spread out over your tinder. Great for emergency survival situations, wild camping and bushcrafting.

I'll be honest i've had a couple of fire starters in the past and NEVER been able to start a fire with one - even with tiny pieces of shredded kitchen roll and similar flammable materials.
But with this its easy. Do you even understand how flammable magnesium is? Just shave a bit off with the striker or the back of a knife, get a few sparks on it and away you go!
