Hi everyone,
I've bought a Coghlan's orange match safe with O-ring and tested it as Lundin suggest it: by submerging it with one match in a glass of water for 30 min. The result was a completely damped match. What is the good brand for that quality orange match safe?
I also want to buy a magnesium fire starting tool and I've read that Coghlan's rod is not solid compared to Doan's one. I may buy one just to experiment with magnesium though.
When I visit the "army supplies" in Montréal and the camping sections of the stores here, all I find is Coghlans stuff and false parachute cord. Everything is Coghlan, the matches, the mag. bars, the space blankets, the signaling mirrors. The only brand thing I can find easily is Nalgene bottles.
