The demonstration is incorrect, the striker is designed to be removed, then used to strike flint rod (farras), when you strike the rod while striker is still in the holster, you risk detangling the paracord.
@@toomanyaccounts Can you post a pic or vid, I'm unaware of any model that doesn't allow it to be removed, as keeping it in place risks unraveling the paracord. You may need to use a pair of pliers to pull it out, or use it in place but risk unraveling the cord.
Amazon sells paracord survival bracelets similar to this with a compass. For those who are unaware of the usage or how to operate a bracelet like this. 1. The striker is designed to be pulled out and used to strike the flint rod (faras), to many people leave the striker in and try to strike it, pull striker out and strike it. You risk unraveling paracord when you continuously strike the rod with the striker in it's holder. 2. The ones that offer the small compass, the compass is a "tap top" meaning when you are in a stationary position with your compass, tap the glass to ensure that the compass is moving freely for an accurate reading. 3. The paracord can be used to make an emergency tent, fishing (yes you can buy one that comes with a fishing hook), repelling, hoisting, etc etc. 4. Has built in whistle, used for situations when you are injured/lost/communicating and need to signal for help or just signal information to another party. You can also get them with a knife, flashlight, thermometer, etc.
@@toomanyaccounts Some Chinese made and thai made paracord bracelets do not follow the patton design and manufacturing instructions. Do to poor quality the striker they put in is too wide and they heat them and press them in ny force, melting the plastic inside the striker holster. It's poor craftsmanship, the patton license rights I hold for the American made one is designed to come out, all US made ones are. Poor craftsmanship from foreign makers does not mean it's not designed to come out.
@@theyframedme if you have to use pliers then it wasn't designed to come out for user use. guess what paracord firestarter makers did design to use the striker in the cord. they show it being used that way and the paracord doesn't unravel. if your paracord unravels while using the striker then you got a shit paracord.
@@theyframedme you mean patent? the patents for one paracord had the rod being removable while the actual striker is still in the bracelet. otherwise the fire starter device ie matches is in a compartment.
They also have versions that are slimmer, and they have versions with a thermometer or compass or both. I'm wanting one but I don't know what I want on it. BTW great way you wear it I've always found it so ugly and dumb how the steel was facing the outside but you've shown me that you can simply reverse it :)

How long does the Flint or whatever it is what u strike last ? I'm going camping and just though it would be fun to use this to start my fires cuz there only cheap but how long or how many times can you strike this does I waste faste or will it last a while if I keep using it
+bear Mitch it can last a lot but its not the best firesteel -- good backup but I strongly recommend this one as very efficient www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00440VIYY?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creativeASIN=B00440VIYY&linkCode=xm2&tag=youedc-20
oh that looks cool too i got the bracelet like ordered it Tuesday came already really really fast post i was just going camping soon and just though be fun to use ok i know its meant to be survival only but its cool for camping having a light on you all the time and that idk how long it will last i have just striked it a few times i cant tell if its going down fast or not it looks like it does but not sure i hope it will last a week tho of striking XD i dont think it will tho unless im doing it too hard
Hi I purchased one these on line. Great idea but poor design. I was not expecting the world for the price I paid. It's extremely difficult to get the Sparks required without damaging the buckle in my view. If they went to a larger buckle size and allowed the Flint to slide out would greatly improve the function. Once finished you just slide the Flint back into the buckle. I would pay 3 or 4 times the price I paid if I could get a product that was really practical. I have no axe to grind with our friends in China but cheap is not always best. Does any one know if there is a product available that is superior to this product and functions well?
It's a plastic type buckle, metal scraper & striker- the cord is nylon type. So it's easy to wipe water off the metal to start a fire. The cord is still strong if it's wet. Why does it need to be waterproof?
Nuno MC yeah it is very handy and at a pinch you can easily access some useful strong cordage , there are lots of videos on these , you can make them yourself too
uhm no, firestarting is very very hard thing and it takes alot of practice but mostly knowledge, because even with a normal lighter you wont be able to start a fire that easily, but for this type of firestarter you need cotton OR feathersticks, and you need to build your fire up up up from the smallest sticks to the biggest pieces of wood. dont be so confident with this sparkle in your hand because with no knowledge you dont have SHIT.
I was looking for something else in a shop nearby where i live and decided to get one paracord bracelet that was 2.50 bucks because i wanted to get one in a long time, upon unpacking when i got home i was interestingly surprised by the whistle and i also had that strange metal piece that can come out and suddenly realized lol shit this is fucking magnezium fire started O.O its the same but the plastic is a bit better quality and it is awesome to have one of those wherever you go

Thanks for demonstrating how the fire starter works
cheers
he is right, but don't admit it, be an ironic jerk, this is the good way to gather subscribers. well done! :)

Thank you for showing me that removing the coating from the fire steel would make this fire starter work! Great review.

Nenad Lazić a ja covjek gleda da ne bude sve sminkeraj da ima malo i smisla al neda mi se :D
Thanks for teaching me how to use it.
I have to be honest, somehow I've never seen/heard of a paracord bracelet before. It's pretty cool!
Rick Emerson yeah peple wear it as cool band but if needed in a pinch you have some cordage ..will do more videos on it
Got a black G-shock so its going to look nice hopefully it ain’t too FAT . Thanks for the review man !
Yeah Black G shock here also , leave nice dress watch home for special occasions
FYI you can actually take the metal striker off. and since it has a teeth you can use it to cut things with.
Thanks for the video. I got 2 of them on ebay for $2.10 ($1.05 each), and they include a compass as well. I agree with you; I'm totally happy.
+Randy Boone they are definitely worth the money
u didn't blow the whistle....

Italo petrucci I don't see why not but why would you

Brandon Martin I thought of an answer. The plane crashes and you survive.
This gadget is waterproof? Please answer my questions
It is

uhm no, firestarting is very very hard thing and it takes alot of practice but mostly knowledge, because even with a normal lighter you wont be able to start a fire that easily, but for this type of firestarter you need cotton OR feathersticks, and you need to build your fire up up up from the smallest sticks to the biggest pieces of wood. dont be so confident with this sparkle in your hand because with no knowledge you dont have SHIT.
Random Dude you could also use dry tinder. Ex: leaves, dry grass, or even dead tree shavings. I used them before
