I bought 5 different fire starter kits to test out with my son. This starter was one of the two best. The long flint made it easy to generate lots of sparks.

Gobspark Firesteel with Super Scraper and Lanyard Review

Pick up a Gobspark steel and you can pretty much ditch the rest of your fire gear. This bad boy will give you an impressive shower of superheated sparks, guaranteed to light your tinder easily.The handle is at once simple and ingenious, allowing you to aim your sparks more accurately than with any other steel I've used. When the chips are down, this 'steel will get the job done, every time. And you won't find any better company on the web (or in the B&M world for that matter) than [...].
If you want foolproof, keep some 100% cotton balls with you. Smearing them with petroleum jelly will turn them into backwoods napalm. This will always light, and burn for five minutes or more. The beauty of the firesteel is it doesn't have to stay dry, it doesn't need fuel and it doesn't run out. Well, maybe after several thousand fires. After that I'll gladly spend another nine bucks to light a few thousand more.
This 'steel won't let you down. It's never failed me no matter the conditions. Five ***** only because I can't give more. :)

Lightning Nuggets N100SEB Firestarters Super Economy Box of Fire-Starting Nuggets, 100 Count Review

Lightning Nuggets N100SEB Firestarters Super Economy Box of Fire-Starting Nuggets, 100 Count
Average Reviews:

I purchased this product when the gentleman that installed our replacement
fire box demonstrated how easy it is to start a fire with them. Compared
to other products this is very inexpensive, less than $0.30 a nugget. Some
products, like paste, blocks, and sticks are three to five times more expensive than the nuggets. Best of all they work with small wood for a
quick start, then add the bigger stuff. You can, and I do, carry these in your backpack and/or car in case you get stranded; I usually put a couple in a small 'Ziploc' plastic bag along with a small box of matches.

Quickly and safely start any indoor or outdoor fire, in any season, with this box of 100 fire-starting nuggets. The non-toxic environmentally safe pine-scented nuggets have an unlimited shelf life and feature a blend of highly resinous, pulverized pitchwood sawdust and food-grade paraffin wax. Best of all, each nugget lights easily and burns strong for 15 minutes minimum, which means it only takes one round-shaped nugget to start the fire--no need for newspaper and kindling or messy lighter fluids or gels. The fire-starting nuggets leave behind no residue and can be safely used in fireplaces, fireplace inserts, wood stoves, and pellet stoves, as well as in barbeques and campfires. They make it easy to enjoy a nice fire without the hassle of getting it started. They also make a great addition to an emergency kit or backcountry survival kit. Made in the USA, the fire starters come in a box that measures 11 by 7 by 5 inches.
