Swedish Fire Steel...what is it really? - 12/05/06 01:46 AM
Hey guys,
Is there a difference between a fericium rod (sorry about the spelling) and Swedish fire steel? I have a magnesium fire starter with a fericium rod on it to light the shavings. I also bought a Light My Fire Swedish fire steel rod. Are these two things the same? Or is the Swedish fire steel a better spark producer? Any thoughts on this? thanks.
