TOPS Fire Starter Piggy Back Magnesium Rods For Survivalists Campers And Outdoor Enthusiasts

The TOPS Fire Starter Piggy Back is a compact, three-rod fire starter built for outdoor enthusiasts who need quick, reliable ignition in the field. Designed for hikers, campers, and survival-minded users, it combines powerful magnesium ignition with a precision Ferrocium spark rod in a rugged, USA-made package.

• Three-Rod All-In-One Design: Three ignition rods are integrated into a 3/4" black aircraft aluminum machined barrel, with two magnesium rods (2" long) and a dark Ferrocium rod, totaling 3" in length including the handle.
• High-Temperature Magnesium Ignition: Shave a small amount of magnesium (about the size of a nickel) to form a tinder-ready pile that burns rapidly at temperatures above +5000 degrees.
• Ferrocium Spark Rod: The dark rod produces a very hot spark (+1000 degrees) when scraped with a knife, aiding reliable ignition.
• Controlled Spark-To-Flame Method: Draw the knife edge at a right angle firmly down the entire length of the Ferrocium rod to ignite the magnesium pile on the tinder.
• Rugged, Lightweight Construction: Machined black aluminum barrel offers durability without adding excessive weight—built for field use.
• Easy Sheath Attachment: Includes 2 mounting screws to attach to most Kydex sheaths for quick access.
• Made in the USA: Proudly manufactured in the United States.

This three-rod system delivers fast, dependable fire-starting results in outdoor settings. The magnesium provides a fierce flame to ignite even damp tinder quickly, while the Ferrocium rod offers reliable sparks on demand. The compact, durable barrel and included screws for Kydex sheath attachment mean you can carry it in a pack, belt, or survival kit with ease. Ideal for hikers, campers, survivalists, and anyone building a robust fire-starting toolkit, the TOPS Fire Starter Piggy Back replaces bulky kits with a single, purpose-built tool. For best use, shave a nickel-sized magnesium pile onto tinder, spark with the Ferrocium rod, then drag the knife edge along the Ferrocium to light the pile on the tinder.
