Is the rod on one side of the Doan magnesium bar ferrocerium(sp?) and not flint, as I may have erroneously assumed?

How about the strikers on Bic lighters, don't they use flint?


Ferrocerium in both cases.

I have a flint/steel fire starting kit like Christopher Nyerges. Hmmm, steel wool? I'll have to try that though I'm still hoping someone might have another option. Oh, tinder fungus doesn't grow down here as far as I can determine so that's out too.
