Olicamp
Olicamp Sparkler Fire Starter
SKU: OLICAMP-SPARKLER
Ferrocerium Rod & Steel Striker — 3,000°F Sparks
$10.00
Everything a fire requires — a ferrocerium rod that throws sparks and a steel striker to throw them — packed into one pocketable tool that weighs almost nothing. The Olicamp Sparkler's ferrocerium rod generates sparks at 3,000°F, hot enough to ignite prepared tinder, char cloth, cotton wool, or dry natural material with a single firm strike. The superior striker geometry creates a full, directed spark shower rather than the scattered output of lesser strikers — a meaningful difference when working over a small nest of tinder in difficult conditions. The compact, keychain-compatible design makes it the fire tool that actually gets carried because it costs nothing in space or weight to include. Compatible with all Olicamp camping stoves and gas appliances for reliable ignition in cold and wet conditions when lighters fail.

SOL Mag Striker with Tinder Cord
SKU: SOL-MAG-STRIKER
All-in-One Magnesium Fire Starter — Flint Rod + Bottle Opener
$17.00
Three elements of fire-starting consolidated into one rugged, palm-sized tool. The Mag Striker embeds both a flint rod and a magnesium rod into the handle itself — meaning your grip surface doesn't erode as you shave magnesium, unlike traditional block-style magnesium starters where the shaving surface is the handle. The curved scraper edge is purpose-designed for accumulating a pile of magnesium shavings efficiently; the straight edge struck against the flint rod throws a shower of sparks directly onto that pile. Magnesium burns at over 5,400°F and will ignite even damp tinder — the critical advantage in wet conditions where conventional tinder fails. Included tinder cord provides waxed cotton-core material ready to use as kindling or punk. A stainless steel bottle opener integrated into the striker rounds out the tool. The Mag Striker starts fires with cold, wet, or gloved hands — the engineering specifically addresses the fine motor coordination failures that cold causes.

Coghlan's
Coghlan's Magnesium Fire Starter
SKU: COGHLANS-MAGNESIUM-FIRE-STARTER
5,400°F Magnesium Block — Hundreds of Fires
$6.00
The essential fire-starting backup that belongs in every pack, emergency kit, and vehicle. Coghlan's Magnesium Fire Starter has been putting hunters, backpackers, and scouts in front of warm fires for decades — a field-proven tool that has never needed a battery, a recharge, or fuel. Magnesium ignites at 5,400°F, producing a flame hot enough to light natural tinder, damp leaves, and wet kindling that would extinguish a match or lighter. One starter provides sufficient shavings for hundreds of fires — a full season's worth of emergency ignitions in a tool small enough to forget is in the pocket. Scrape a small pile of magnesium shavings onto your tinder, strike the flint striker across the embedded flint rod, and the resulting shower of sparks ignites the magnesium instantly. Full directions printed on the included card.

SOL Fire Lite Kit in Drybag
SKU: SOL-FIRE-LITE-KIT-DRYBAG
20-Fire Complete Kit — Micro Sparker + Tinder-Quik + Tinder Cord
$18.00
The complete fire-starting system in a package light and small enough to carry in every pack without thinking about it. The SOL Fire Lite Kit brings together three proven fire-starting tools — the Fire Lite Micro Sparker, 20 pieces of Tinder-Quik, and 10 feet of Tinder Cord — inside a waterproof DryFlex bag that keeps all of it protected from rain, immersion, and pack moisture through conditions that would render conventional tinder useless. The Micro Sparker produces up to 5,000 sparks with one-handed operation at any altitude and in any weather. Tinder-Quik is waterproof and windproof waxed cotton that ignites from a single spark and burns for up to three minutes — long enough for green or damp kindling to catch under any conditions. Tinder Cord's waxed cotton core serves as both utility cord and fire punk: expose the core, push against the Micro Sparker, and it lights. Dimensions: 1.5" × 4.0" × 6.75". Weight: 3.5 oz.

SOL All Weather Matches
SKU: SOL-ALL-WEATHER-MATCHES
25 Count — Waterproof & Windproof — 10-Second Burn
$11.00
Standard matches fail in the backcountry — not sometimes, but reliably, in exactly the conditions where fire matters most. SOL's All Weather Matches were engineered to perform where conventional matches cannot. Each match is longer and thicker than a standard match, with multiple layers of flammable varnish built up on the head to create a waterproof, windproof burn that remains lit even when the match itself is wet. The extra-long, thick head provides up to 10 seconds of burn time — approximately five times longer than a standard kitchen match — giving enough time to ignite prepared tinder, light a stove, or nurse a reluctant fire even in rain and wind. The high-visibility orange waterproof case includes three integrated striker areas, so there is always a dry striker available regardless of conditions. 25 matches and cotton tinder per case. The case itself is waterproof and floats.

Coghlan's Emergency Tinder Kit
SKU: COGHLANS-EMERGENCY-TINDER-KIT
8-Piece Waterproof Tinder + Flint Match — Burns 5–7 Minutes
$9.00
A pocketable fire-starting kit that functions completely without matches or a lighter — the tool for when primary fire-starting methods have been lost, soaked, or exhausted. Coghlan's Emergency Tinder Kit contains eight pieces of waterproof waxed tinder that ignites and sustains flame even when completely wet, and one waterproof flint match that creates sparks without requiring a striker surface. Each piece of tinder burns for five to seven minutes once ignited — long enough to reliably catch green wood, wet bark, or any marginally combustible kindling available in an emergency. To use: flatten a cube, pull apart to expose the cotton fibers, hold the flint match close to the fibers and scrape to create sparks. Weight: 2 oz (57g). A genuine emergency tool at a price point that removes any justification for not including it in every pack and kit.

SOL Fire Lite Fuel Cubes
SKU: SOL-FIRE-LITE-FUEL-CUBES
12-Count Box — 1,300°F — 8-Minute Burn — Eco-Friendly
$10.00
When tinder needs to do more than just ignite — when the wood is wet, the kindling is green, or a camp stove needs sustained heat — the SOL Fire Lite Fuel Cubes deliver what conventional tinder can't: an 8-minute burn at 1,300°F hot enough to dry out and ignite nearly any material, and powerful enough to boil water directly in a small pot. Each cube is individually foil-wrapped, preserving it from moisture until the moment of use, and it lights with a single spark from any fire-starting igniter. No fossil fuels — the eco-friendly formula contains no petroleum products and is safe for cooking and food storage contact. At 1,300°F for eight minutes, a single cube is equivalent to five to six conventional tinder pieces for sheer heat output. The individually-wrapped format means partial use is practical: light what you need and save the rest. Twelve cubes per box.

The American-made windproof lighter that has been the standard-issue ignition tool since 1932. Every Zippo lighter is refillable, built from all-metal construction, covered by an unconditional lifetime guarantee, and engineered with a chimney-effect windproof mechanism that functions in conditions that extinguish every other lighter. From the classic brushed chrome to the low-visibility matte black and the heavy-duty Armor series — the right Zippo for every carry application.

Zippo Classic Brushed Chrome Windproof Lighter
SKU: ZIPPO-200
Brushed Chrome — Classic Case — Lifetime Guarantee
$19.95
The lighter that defined what a lighter should be. Since 1932, Zippo's windproof mechanism has done what matches and cheap lighters cannot — it works. One hand opens the lid, one flick of the wheel lights the wick, and the hinged case snaps shut with the sound that has identified this lighter across nine decades of production. The brushed chrome finish resists fingerprints and minor scratches, aging into a patina that marks it as genuinely used. The windproof design creates a chimney effect around the flame that allows it to function in conditions that extinguish every other lighter. Every Zippo is covered by an unconditional lifetime guarantee — Zippo repairs or replaces any product that fails to work, no charge, no questions. Refillable with Zippo premium lighter fluid. Dimensions: 2.25 in H × 1.5 in W × 0.5 in D. Weight: 2 oz.

Zippo Classic Matte Black Windproof Lighter
SKU: ZIPPO-218
Matte Black — Low-Visibility Finish — Classic Case
$19.95
Everything the standard Zippo delivers in a finish built for people who prefer their gear to not draw attention. The matte black coating eliminates the reflective surface entirely — in a hunting blind, on a dark range, or in a pocket that does not need a chrome flash every time you reach in, this is the right lighter. The matte finish conceals handling marks better than any polished surface, keeping its appearance consistent over years of daily carry. Same windproof mechanism, same lifetime guarantee, same one-hand operation that has made the Zippo the standard-issue lighter for anyone who takes reliable ignition seriously. Refillable with Zippo premium lighter fluid.

Zippo High Polish Chrome Windproof Lighter
SKU: ZIPPO-150
High Polish Chrome — Mirror Finish — Classic Case
$23.95
The mirror-finish Zippo is the one people recognize from eight decades of popular culture — and it earns that recognition. High-polish chrome takes more time, more labor, and more material removal than brushed or matte finishes, producing a surface that reflects with the clarity of a mirror. This is a lighter that looks deliberately chosen rather than incidentally purchased. The windproof mechanism is identical to every other Zippo — same catalytic cotton wick, same flint wheel, same chimney-effect case — but wrapped in a finish that makes the object itself worth keeping. Lifetime guarantee. Refillable with Zippo premium lighter fluid.

Zippo — Armor® Lighters
Zippo Armor® Brushed Chrome Windproof Lighter
SKU: ZIPPO-162
Armor® Case — 1.5× Thicker Walls — Brushed Chrome
$39.95
When the standard Zippo is not enough — when the lighter goes in a chest pocket with tools, into a pack that takes real abuse, or into environments where casual durability fails — the Armor is what Zippo built. The Armor case is machined from solid brass to approximately 1.5 times the wall thickness of a standard case. The difference is immediate in the hand: heavier, denser, and producing a deeper resonant click when the lid closes. Same windproof insert inside — same flint, same wick, same fuel — but the case is built to a different standard. For any application where the lighter might take a serious impact, the Armor is the correct choice. Lifetime guarantee. Refillable with Zippo premium lighter fluid.

Zippo Slim® Brushed Chrome Windproof Lighter
SKU: ZIPPO-1610
Slim® Profile — 40% Narrower — Brushed Chrome
$19.95
The Zippo for pockets that matter — pants pockets, shirt pockets, jacket chest pockets where every millimeter of width is real estate. At approximately 40% narrower than the classic case, the Slim sits flat against the body in a way the standard model does not, disappearing into a front pocket without creating a visible profile. The windproof mechanism is scaled accordingly with a smaller fuel reservoir, but the fundamental engineering is identical. If you carry a lighter daily and notice the standard Zippo in your pocket, the Slim solves that problem permanently. Lifetime guarantee. Refillable with Zippo premium lighter fluid.

Zippo applies the same engineering philosophy to fire-starting tools that they apply to lighters — built to work without failure when conditions demand it. The Mag Strike throws sparks at 5,500°F from a waterproof magnesium and ferro rod assembly. The FireFast Bellows telescopes from 7.5 to 26 inches for precise airflow delivery without burning your face over a coal bed. The Typhoon Match Kit waterproofs 15 heavy-duty matches in a floating, sealed container. The Tinder Shreds provide waxed cotton tinder for any spark source. Tools that belong in every pack and emergency kit.

Zippo Mag Strike Fire Starter
SKU: ZIPPO-40495
Magnesium + Ferro Rod — Paracord Handle — Waterproof
$20.95
Zippo's magnesium fire starter — engineered with the same precision they bring to the lighter. The Mag Strike combines a magnesium rod for producing shavings with a ferro rod for throwing sparks, mounted in a paracord-wrapped handle that provides grip even with wet or cold hands. The ferro rod throws sparks at over 5,500°F — hot enough to ignite magnesium shavings even in wet conditions where every other tinder fails. Magnesium itself burns at approximately 5,600°F, creating a flame that dries out and ignites damp natural tinder and wet kindling that would not catch from a standard match or lighter. The entire assembly is waterproof. The paracord handle is functional cordage for camp tasks or emergency rigging. A backup fire tool built to Zippo's standard: made to outlast the person who bought it.

Zippo Tinder Shreds
SKU: ZIPPO-TINDERSHREDS
Waxed Cotton Tinder — Resealable Bag — Any Spark Source
$10.95
Tinder that does not require foraging, preparation, or ideal conditions — pull, place, and ignite. Zippo Tinder Shreds are waxed cotton fibers pre-processed for fire-starting, packaged in a resealable bag that keeps moisture out through extended camp or backcountry use. The wax coating repels moisture and provides sustained burn that allows marginally combustible kindling to catch — the difference between a fire that starts on the first attempt and one that requires repeated relighting. Use with any spark source: Zippo lighter, ferro rod, magnesium striker. The shreds can be shaped into a nest form that optimizes airflow and dramatically improves catch rate in cold or humid conditions. A no-excuse item — lightweight, inexpensive, and the difference between having a fire when it matters and not.

Zippo Typhoon Match Kit

15 Heavy-Duty Waterproof Matches — Waterproof Floating Container
$15.95
Fifteen heavy-duty waterproof matches in a sealed container designed for the specific conditions where matches are most needed. The Typhoon Match Kit's matches are built to a different standard than conventional matches — longer heads with multiple layers of flammable coating that maintain ignition capability after submersion or in driving rain, with a burn time significantly longer than a standard match. The integrated strike pad is protected from moisture when sealed, ensuring a dry striker is always available regardless of external conditions. The container itself is waterproof, rated to withstand wind, water, and mechanical shock — and it floats. Fifteen heavy-duty matches is enough fire for days of outdoor use across any realistic scenario.

Zippo FireFast® Bellows

Telescoping — 7.5 in to 26 in — Precision Airflow
$33.95
The tool for establishing a fire quickly without kneeling in dirt, burning your face and hands, or exhausting yourself blowing into a struggling coal bed. The Zippo FireFast Bellows telescopes from a compact 7.5 inches to 26 inches of reach — enough to direct airflow into the base of a fire while keeping your face at a comfortable distance. The bellows mechanism converts a gentle squeeze into a focused, high-velocity air stream that delivers oxygen directly to the combustion zone, turning a struggling fire into an established one in seconds. The telescoping design compresses for pack storage — it disappears into a side pocket without taking appreciable space. The angled tip directs airflow precisely into small spaces between fuel. An underrated camp tool that most people don't know they want until the first time they use one.

The consumables that keep every Zippo lighter performing as designed. Zippo Premium Lighter Fluid is a naphtha formula matched to the cotton wick and catalytic mechanism of all Zippo windproof lighter models — cleaner burning and lower odor than generic naphtha. The replacement flint 6-pack covers approximately a year of daily carry in one purchase. Using Zippo consumables in Zippo lighters is the difference between a lighter that performs to its guarantee and one that degrades over time.

Zippo Premium Lighter Fluid
SKU: ZIPPO-3072
4 oz Can — Naphtha Formula — All Zippo Lighters
$5.95
Zippo designed the fuel for their lighters the same way they designed the lighters themselves — to a standard that eliminates failure. Zippo Premium Lighter Fluid is a naphtha-based formula that burns cleaner than generic naphtha, produces less odor, and leaves less carbon buildup on the wick and flint wheel over time. Using off-brand lighter fluid in a Zippo works but degrades wick performance faster and produces more odor during and after ignition. The Zippo formula is matched to the cotton wick, the catalytic mechanism, and the fuel capacity of each case size. A single 4 oz can refills a standard Zippo lighter approximately six times. The snap-lock safety nozzle prevents accidental discharge during storage and transport.

Zippo Replacement Flints 6-Pack
SKU: ZIPPO-2406N
6 Flints — Fits All Zippo Windproof Lighters
$4.95
The flint is the component that ages in a Zippo lighter — typically lasting several hundred sparks before the wheel stops producing a consistent flame. A worn flint produces weak, inconsistent sparks requiring multiple attempts to light the wick, and in cold weather or with gloved hands, multiple attempts becomes a real problem. Zippo replacement flints are manufactured to the same specification as factory-installed flints, ensuring consistent spark output across the full life of each flint. Each pack contains six flints — typically a year or more of supply for daily carry. Replacement takes approximately 30 seconds: unscrew the flint spring with a coin, drop in the new flint, rethread the spring, done.
