The Mil-Tec steel-magnesium flint is a powerful flint for starting a fire, designed for military and survival use.
Mil-Tec's chair is a handy flint that is sized to be conveniently carried in a pocket, survial kit or escape bag. The bar of the flint was created from magnesium alloy, which produces energetic sparks that reach temperatures close to 2980°C.
The flint works when wet, in rain, snowfall, at any altitude and latitude. Mil-Tec's chair is an invaluable tool for starting a fire in an emergency situation.
A steel scraper attached by a cord to the handle of the flint is used for flinting. Depending on the skill of the user, the flint has a life span of up to 3,000 flints.
