- Position Firesteel: Hold the black magnesium firesteel rod firmly with one hand, positioning the end of the rod close to your prepared tinder pile.
- Scrape for Sparks: With your other hand, hold the chrome-plated striker tool firmly. Place the edge of the striker against the magnesium rod at an acute angle (around 45 degrees).
- Generate Sparks: Apply firm, consistent pressure and quickly scrape the striker down the length of the magnesium rod. This action will create a shower of hot sparks directed towards your tinder.
