Quick and easy!

Fiber Light is slick! It ignites so easy. I use it to light my charcoal grill. Ignite it with my Outdoor Element Scout Feather, scoop it with the knife into the grill, set the chimney of charcoal on top. No problem lighting it on a windy wet day out in the wild. Starting fires is fun, but while camping you want to start the fire and move on. Fiber Light ignites so fast, and stays lit long enough to ignite the rest of your kindling. If you have an OE knife or Firebiner, you should grab a few of these. These also make great gifts. Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, hikers, campers. OE gear really adds to the fun of outdoors.
