Fire Piston Photos

I don't have one (yet), but this might interest you:

They look a bit bulky... but they're SO BEAUTIFUL

I pledged to this project.  Those look awesome!

Me too. With the 3 rods in the side, he's covered a lot of options for getting a fire started.

Now to learn how to make char cloth

I joined too at the 35 buck mark.  Im a hardcore survivalist at heart and have alot of gear, but never did get a fire piston.   I tried making one with lexan tube once(thought it would be cool to see the plug glow) but that project didnt work out so good.  35 bucks is a fair price so I'm in.

Thanks Warrior

I really like the multiple fire options.  Plus, the package is very attractive.

Yep I agree, plus Im addicted to buying stuff, gear and knives!

I make kydex sheaths with spots to put in firesteel, but making a fire piston was over my head.   Firesteel rods are nice and cheap, I buy mine from here, and they are awesome.  http://firesteel.com/FireSteel-Blank-Rods/

I tried making a piston once too. Didn't turn out so well. I also love buying gear. I have another knife, a pocket slip pouch for my Vic Farmer, and a Cold Steel blowgun ordered. 

I just got my Snugpak Sleeper Lite, Frogg Toggs DriDucks poncho, and ProForce fold-a-cups in. Oh yeah, and my 12cm Zebra pot also came in:
