When I received these I tried to open the blister pack by pushing on the front to push the firefly’s through the cardboard at the back. Don’t do this! There was a crack as one of the strikers snapped in half. The instructions reveal that you need to only strike the thin sides to prevent the striker becoming loose in the housing as it wears away and you need to support it with a finger to prevent it snapping. I wish I had read that before I snapped mine! Sparks nicely and should be fine if you are careful.
Tried this out on the Tortoise tinder. Lit first time using the spine of the saw blade. It fits my Camper, Huntsman and Swiss Champ. Will not fit a Rangergrip but I knew this already. A worthwhile back-up ferro rod.
Have tried this great little firefly and it works really well and very handy in my Swiss Army knife would recommend.
Fits into Swiss Army knife unknowingly I ordered the larger size so had to tweak a little but no problems an good sparks
So so pleased that I brought these. I meant to get them ages ago. Fit perfectly and glow really nice. Absolutely a must have 100%
Fitted straight into my Swiss Army knife should be handy to have as a back up fire starter
Another great idea ,fits victorinox scales instead of toothpick, along with the tinder gives ability to make fire very pleased
