Paul810,

Congratulations on your display of dexterity!

Can you use this method to light a treated cotton ball when you are cold and stressed out? Think about how you felt when you were in a close accident or you thought you were about to be attacked or beat up.

Now think about putting some tinder on the ground, stick your knife in the ground next to it, and scrape your BS Hot spark to ignite the tinder. Which one is going to be more reliable?
