OK, I admit this is dumb.

Going by the "several ways to start a fire" theory, I recently bought a "Light My Fire" firesteel. I have never used one, but it threw an impressive stream of sparks when I tried it, and it makes me feel better to have another method of firestarting.

Do I need to wrap or carry it in a certain way so normal movement in a pocket or pack won't allow the striker to rub against the steel and cause it to spark?
