Blast Match Fire Starter
Blast match Fire Starter
The Blast match Fire Starter is designed for all-weather use and performs superbly in the most extreme marine, arctic, desert, and forest environments. The Ultimate Survival Blast Match was designed for Air Force fighter pilots at risk of being shot down in rugged terrain, or the mountain climber contending with challenging alpine weather.
People like these need a fire starter that is operable with one hand in case of injury, won't surprise you by running out of fuel, and never fails to light in the wind, rain, or snow.
The Blast Match generates a stream of sparks three times the heat of a standard match and will easily light any material (wood, paper, bark, cloth, or man-made fire starting tinders) that a match will ignite. You can accurately aim the sparks to ignite a roaring fire in any weather conditions.
If the Blast Match becomes wet, simply wipe it off and it is ready for use. In combination with Ultimate Survival's Wet Fire Starting Tinder, you can start a fire even in the driving rain.
At the heart of the Blast Match is a custom bar of high performance flint material. Spring loaded for compactness, the flint bar also rotates 360 degrees to help prevent uneven wear and tear. A tungsten carbide striker built into the striker button is set at the perfect angle for maximum sparking - taking the guess work out of starting a fire.
Incorporated into the Blast Match is a safety feature to prevent inadvertent ignition when accidentally plunged. The unique design requires the operator to press the thumb button in order to engage the striker mechanism.
