Buy the Fosco Industries Magnesium Fire Starter – reliable fire in any weather
The Fosco Industries Magnesium Fire Starter combines a magnesium block with an integrated flint and a striker. You scrape off some magnesium, pile the shavings onto the tinder and ignite them with a shower of sparks – a proven principle that works without fuel, gas or battery.
The sparks reach around 3000°C and ignite even when lighters fail in wet and cold. At just 55 g and compact dimensions, the fire starter belongs in every survival kit, on a keychain or in a pocket – a piece of gear that makes the difference when it counts.

Magnesium & sparks – why this works even wet
Unlike a lighter, the Fosco Industries Magnesium Fire Starter is impervious to moisture: with nothing to evaporate or run empty, it is still ready after years. The scraped magnesium burns extremely hot and ignites even damp tinder; the spark from the flint provides the ignition temperature of around 3000°C. So you get fire in wind, rain and cold – exactly when it matters.
What is the Fosco Industries Magnesium Fire Starter for?
The fire starter is for anyone who does not want to rely on a lighter: bushcrafters and campers for lighting campfires and stoves, hikers and hunters as a backup, and for emergency and survival kits. It is also handy for lighting gas stoves, grills and fireplaces.
How to ignite with the Fosco Industries Magnesium Fire Starter – step by step
First scrape some magnesium from the block onto a small pile of dry tinder. Then hold the fire starter close to the tinder and draw the striker briskly across the flint so the sparks hit the magnesium shavings. The shavings ignite instantly and set the tinder alight.
Care & storage of the Fosco Industries Magnesium Fire Starter
The fire starter is virtually maintenance-free. Dry it after use and store it dry. Since no fuel evaporates, it stays functional for years – ideal as a permanent emergency tool you can simply leave in the kit.
