TESTIMONIALS
| "We've tried
everything that might cause the magnesium block to lose its ferro rod - and
it's great to say that we failed! Do you have a web site or list of
distributors? I got questions on where to get the tools, even before I got a
chance to tell you that the page was up!"

Dear Sir, On August 9, 1987 my Boy Scout Troop and I took a canoe trip down the White River near Whitehall, Michigan. The weather was very bad. It was raining all day and we were very cold. We had made plans to stay overnight rain or not. I knew it would be a rough go from here, due to foul weather.
My Scoutmaster told me to build a fire and I asked everyone who had matches to give them to me. All of the matches were no good except for one pack and they did not last long. At this point, all the cold eyes of my friends looked down on me. I was willing to try the two sticks method, but through constant searching, I came up with something.
Recently, I received a Magnesium Firestarter from my good friend Ace Extrom, an outdoor writer. I had placed it in my pack prior to the trip, and felt that it was a blessing that it was there. After ten minutes a fire was going. I burned everything I could find, even my only dry shirt. About a half an hour passed and all was well. Everyone was warm.
I would like to thank you for the firestarter which protected against the threat of hypothermia and started the fire.
Thank you,

son Watson and stepson Jay Sifly went duck hunting December 21, 1985. They
were planning to float a creek in the afternoon with instructions to be home
by 6:00pm, approximately thirty minutes after dark. However, they failed to
return. The boys came out of the woods at 8am on Sunday and related their story; They had overturned the boat shortly after dark. They were wet, cold, and not completely sure where they were. They attempted to start a fire with waterproof matches which they were unable to do. Jay had a magnesium firestarter with which they were able to get a fire started and I feel enabled them to survive the 16 degree temperatures during the night. You may use this information in endorsing your magnesium firestarters. With kindest regards, Sincerely, W. Robert Caviness, D.D.S. |
