First, you scrape off small magnesium shavings and then ignite them using the built-in spark striker. That makes this fire starter appealing for anyone looking for a simple, mechanical solution without fuel or a disposable lighter. Thanks to its compact size, you can easily carry it in your backpack, cook set, or emergency kit. ### Magnesium and sparks in one tool This fire starter combines several parts in one design: - magnesium rod for flammable shavings - spark striker to ignite the magnesium - serrated scraper blade to make shavings quickly - suitable for hundreds of fire-starting moments Magnesium burns intensely and helps tinder and fine kindling catch more quickly. That is useful when you want to start a campfire or cooking fire and your materials do not feel perfectly dry. ### Practical to use on the go Thanks to its low weight and simple principle, this is a practical choice for minimalist campers, backpackers, and outdoor enthusiasts who like to carry a backup solution. You are not dependent on gas or batteries, which makes this type of fire starter especially practical on the go. Before use, scrape off a small pile of magnesium. Then strike sparks toward the shavings so they can ignite. It works most efficiently in combination with dry tinder, wood shavings, or fine fire-starting material. ### Features and applications The Coghlan's 7870 is especially suitable for: - camping and trekking - bushcraft and outdoor cooking - festival gear or emergency kit - use as an extra backup alongside matches or a lighter The product is made of magnesium and is intended as a durable, reusable fire starter for outdoor use. A good choice if you are looking for a compact fire starter that takes up little space in your gear. ## Breadcrumbs - [Cooking and eating](https://www.thecampingstore.eu/en/cooking-and-eating) - [Miscellaneous](https://www.thecampingstore.eu/en/cooking-and-eating/miscellaneous) ## Related products -
