Cool. Looks like it would be neat to play with, and the price is reasonable.

Those reviews have to be fake, or all the bad reviews were deleted.


Why do you say that? I know that not all of their reviews are fake because I have written reviews that are posted to that site. Perhaps they delete bad reviews but I doubt it, there are poor reviews for other products.

All in all I don't think a fire piston is a great tool. As others have said they're fussy, they require maintenance and lube and are not super robust. Personally I prefer a firesteel even to matches.
