## Questions & Answers

**Q: Anyone know of another way to light it without a saw? Eventually I'll own the Huntsman but the Explorer lacks the saw.**
A: All you need is a good sharp 90 degree edge to scrape slivers of ferocium off a rod to create sparks. Carbon steel works best.

**Q: This company isnt affiliated with Victorinox rt???**
A: I do not believe so, but the product fits perfectly with the victorinox knives! And it works well for what it is!

**Q: How long does each kindling burn?**
A: I'm not one for whipping out a stopwatch and going viral etc.  I will say this...if you are in dire straights, has potential to burn long enough to get you out.  If y'all just want a cup of coffee, break some off (fluff it up) and use sparingly.  You tube Jon gadget and his take on these.  G'luck, stay safe & never stop learning!
