The back of a pocket knife? Can a hard stone be used? What type of "striker" does this need?** A: Any piece of HIGH CARBON STEEL will work just fine. Just use extreme caution if you find yourself with only a folding knife to use as a striker. The blade can close as you scrape the rod with the back of the blade and can cut you, adding to your problems. I usually use the back (spine) of my Becker bk-2. I used a wire brush on a grinder to take the finish off of the spine. It throws good sparks. A piece of an old hacksaw blade works very well too! Just anything made from high carbon steel. If you’re like most of us and don’t have a degree in metallurgy there is a simple way to find out if your metal is high carbon steel. Simply test it with a bench grinder (preferably) if it throws a ton of sparks when touched to the grinding wheel, then you have a piece of high carbon steel. Try different steels. A lawnmower blade, old gardening tools, etc. the more surface area you have contacting the ferry rod the more sparks you will have. Ideally a couple of pieces of old hacksaw blade welded, epoxied, or riveted together with a contour matching the rod will amaze you with the amount of sparks produced. Make a few extra. Strikers have a knack for disappearing when you need one. Just set the flat end of the ferro rod down on the metal and trace a half circle onto the metal. Then you can use a dremel, drill press, metal punch, or whatever you have on hand to cut out the half circle matching the ferro rod. Then unleash the sparks! **Q: Is this ferrocerium all throughout the bar? I’ve seen some where the core is just steel and only a thin outer layer will make a spark** A: I am seeing this as well, that it seems to be a steel rod with only a thin outer coating of ferrocerium. It is not only that the sparking stops after a few dozen strikes in the same area, it also becomes wavy and hard enough to mar the ridge of my knife causing metal burs. I do not trust this product anymore after this experience recently backpacking, which is a real shame because I have several sets. **Q: What does Each rod weigh?** A: The weight of one 1/2" x 5" ferro rod is approx 115g. ## Frequently Bought Together - bayite Ferro Rods 1/2" X 5'' XL Survival Fire Starter Drilled Flint Steel Ferrocerium Rod with Toggl - bayite Pack of 3/5/10 Striker-Pro High Speed Steel Striker for Ferro Rod Fire Starter - bayite 4 Inch Survival Ferrocerium Drilled Flint Fire Starter, Ferro Rod Kit with Paracord Landyard Handle and Striker, 4"(Long) x 3/8"(Diameter) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/458066388-survival-drilled-ferrocerium-flint-fire-starter-rod-kit-with-toggle](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/458066388-survival-drilled-ferrocerium-flint-fire-starter-rod-kit-with-toggle) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-09-24*
