    Tried this with the Firefly. Lit first time. Used one whole piece. It lasted for a few minutes. Fits the corkscrew very well. Have covered mine with a ranger band in case it gets damaged. A very handy item. Will buy again.

    Perfect addition to a SAK, really great idea, turn's your knife into an even better multi tool given you the option to cary sure fire along with your blade.
