More "neat" than "useful"
by C. Robinson,Top Contributor: Archery (3 out of 5 stars)
January 16, 2019

My wife got this for me as a gift for Christmas. I do like it - it's an attractive piece of gear with some cool factor. It weighs 1.1oz which isn't huge but ounces add up and if you're going ultralight a soft shackle is probably more useful. If you aren't going ultralight, why not carry an actual (ideally locking) carabiner? This one has a strong steel wire gate, but it just rests against a U-shaped depression - there's no "ledge" to prevent it from stretching under load.

In terms of functions, it has two small holes on one end for hanging things but better plan to use bank line or similar because they're just a bit too small to easily thread 550 paracord through them. It has a fire sparker which is pretty neat, but instead of taking standard lighter flints it uses some type of very thin rod-shaped flint. It does come with two replacements but so far I haven't figured out where you'd get more.

Moving around the curve, it has a blade for cutting things but it's embedded in a V-shaped notch for safety. 550 does just fit in there but not with enough room for any type of slicing action, so it's tricky to cut things with it. I suppose it would cut seat belts fine if you wanted something for your car. And finally, it has a flat head screwdriver... but blade is too broad to be used for small tasks while being too shallow/short to be used on bigger screws.

So if you wouldn't use it for lightweight backpacking, full-gear camping, EDC multi-tool replacement, or any of that, what is it good for? Well, it definitely makes a cool-looking (if big) keychain. And it might be a nice thing to keep in an emergency toolkit in a car... It's definitely attractive, just... not that useful.

Edited:

The company contacted me and sent a replacement pretty quickly. So far, so good! We'll see if this knife holds up.

I bought this for my husband. The fire starter part is pretty cool, but unfortunately, the utility knife part just fell off and we can't find it anywhere. That seems pretty useless if it'd just fall out like that. I can't imagine trying to use it on something if it isn't properly attached in the first place.

Very poor for $15
by jhawins (1 out of 5 stars)

My latch doesn't have enough spring to keep it shut after just a few short months of light use as a keyring.

Very low quality for $15, should be like a $5 novelty trinket.

OK, but gate is loose and had a stripped screw
by Kyle (3 out of 5 stars)

A little smaller than expected, but decent enough. Pretty good for starting campfires from scratch, though not as easy to use as a full size ferrocerium rod (gives less sparks; you'll need very light and dry tinder). Would have been nice if the flint wheel was bi-directional, it only spits out sparks on the bottom. Belt cutter is nice and sharp, has a replaceable blade. Gate is very loose, could be a lot stiffer; it's easy for the carabiner to slip off by accident. The screw holding the belt cutter blade was also the wrong size and completely stripped; I had to replace it. Luckily I have a screw removal tools.

Well built, great price
by Matt (5 out of 5 stars)

Light weight, but feels like it's well built. Titanium coated, so it won't rust. Comes with 2 replacement ferro rods. Perfect size to fit on your keys. A little small to fit around larger hands, but not an issue. For $15 , I definitely recommend this.

Obviously a return and hard to use
by Capall Cogadh (1 out of 5 stars)

I was excited for this product. Something I could hang on my backpack and use for general use, but ready for an emergency. Upon opening the box, it was obvious that the product was a return. The plastic ties had been cut and was in a generic plastic bag. Was still willing to give it a try. Try about three strikes and the wheel became free spinning. No more friction. I had to assume the ferro rod was worn down. Luckily I had a tiny screwdriver set and was able to unscrew one of the tiniest set screws I have seen in a while. I inserted the new rod, but very hard to insert the screw and spring. You have to be perfectly lined up, compress spring while push down with the screwdriver. And when I say extremely difficult, impossible in my case. After couple attempts of push with the screwdriver and keep everything lined up, it would spring out before I could get the threads engaged. So much so, one the third attempt, the setscrew shot off the table never to be found. I would hate to have to depend on this in the field. So now I have the most expensive carabiner I have ever purchased that is only now just the same as a $1 one.

the sparkwheel works okay but the wheel is rough and can cut up the lining of your pockets. The biggest flaw on this product is definitely the spring on the clip itself. It is useless as a means to hold your keys because the spring is incredibly weak and you will often find your keys flying off with no notice.

Great tool

I know have a back up striker that I carry everywhere with me. I have tested it and works great. I have also read that if you run out of flint, you can use a bic lighters flint to replace it. I have not done it yet, but still a great tool!!

Nice looking, but poorly packaged. Notice the item and the backing don't line up. It was packed upside down

Great tool, much smaller and more easily carried than a standard fire starter. Bought a second one for a friends son for his Eagle Scout gift. They loved it too!
