I have just checked mine. They appear to be ok but I have overbagged them. Just as a precaution.


One point that I would make about Wet-Fire, Esbit, Trioxane foil bagged type tinders in general: They are all vunerable to packaging damage. Unfortunatly it's inherent. The best way to ensure that it remains usable is to:

1) Store it in a rigid container . Altoids tins etc are perfect.

2) Over wrap the tinder with tape to reinforce the seams.

Wet-fire has it's weakness's but it's still (in my view) a better choice than Esbit or Trioxane because it's non-toxic.
