I got to review my fire lighting kit too. Normally I have no problem lighting a fire with my flint and steel (and recently my swedish fire steel) until recently when i was in the forrest and coudn't mange it anymore. (I checked natural resources including small feathers, dried fungi(?) and them the lining of my pockets.) No luck. I didn't want to use matches or a lighter as I only just received the swedish fire steel. I wanted to be able to start one with that. If I couldn't than no brew for me. I went home thirsty and dissapointed.<br>Reinhardt
