I feel pretty secure with the Bic and the waterproof matches. However....the weather lately reminds me just how important a fire would be if stranded out somewhere (it feels like about 15 degrees now)!<br><br>BTW...the dimensions of my Whitman's Tin are about 3 1/2 in. by 2 3/4 in. by 1 inch. Or 89mm x 69mm x 28mm, if you prefer.
