What types of fire starters are there?
If you look around for a fire starter, you will come across a wide variety of types online. Fire starters that run on magnesium are particularly well-known. You scrape off magnesium and use it to create a spark that makes for a strong fire. It is practical that magnesium fire starters also work when wet. Alternatively, there are also fire drills. Friction creates heat and then a fire. This is a traditional fire starter that requires more skill and experience. You can also use a paracord to light a fire. For this you need fire steel and wood. There are also ferrocerium rods: these are scraped over a piece of metal and create sparks that you can use to get a fire burning. So you are free to choose which fire starter you want to use on your next adventure.
