Items Included on the Hot Shot Fire Card: 8 Essential Tools To Start a Fire For Emergency and EDC
Flat spark Ferro Rod - The Ferro rod fire starter is a favorite fire-starting device among many bushcraft and survival enthusiasts. Ferrocerium is a man-made metallic material that produces sparks in excess of 3,000 degrees Fahrenheit when it's scraped with a rough surface or a sharp edge.
Flat spark Magnesium Bar - magnesium is a fantastic fire-starting material, It burns at a temp of about 5,000 F (crazy hot). If your fire kindling happens to be wet, this gives you a much better chance at starting your fire.
Knife - A small survival knife on the hot shot fire card with three unique knives available including a gut hook knife with a round knife blade, a square chisel style blade, and a traditional drop point hunters knife style blade.
Pocket Saw - A small pocket saw for camp tasks, and can be used to create sawdust for tinder or for crafting items.
Tweezers - Tweezers are something you'll never regret having available, but you might really regret not having!
EDC Pry Bar- The ability to have a tool dedicated to prying ensures more important tools (like your knife) stay safe and undamaged by too much abuse.
High Carbon Steel Fire Striker - A fire striker uses friction and speed to throw a spark. If you don’t have enough of either of those two factors, then you won’t get a spark. Conversely, more friction and speed mean more sparks, although if you go too fast, you’ll lessen the friction to the point that the increased speed is counterproductive.
Love the look and design. I can't wait to use it. It sits with your GW card and a few others. Looking forward to more Striper episodes on YT. Thank you for everything you do Zach!

Great card!
This will be a handy addition to my daily kit. I held back one star due to the difficulty I encountered with removing the knife and returning it securly in place. I'm nitpicking, overall its a great tool.
