The custom handle of this ferro rod is made from Scrub Oak (from The Rocky Mountains) with a portion of the oak bark remaining for a naturally textured grip. The bark also gives it the rich red and brown colors that also make it unique. The medium size oak handle makes it easy to grip, yet small enough to stow in a fire kit.
This ferro rod is comfortable in the hand which makes it easy to use. It throws a large shower of sparks that will light prepared tinder immediately.
The exposed portion of the ferro rod is approximately 5 ¼ inches long. The custom handles vary between 3 ½ and 4 ½ inches in length. Overall length of rod and handle is between 9 and 10 inches. The ferro rod is painted black to preserve the ferrocerium and a lanyard to safeguard from dropping. Scratch off a bit of the paint and begin striking!
It’s large enough to produce approximately 20,000 strikes of 5,000 degree sparks in any weather.
