Gather your tinder material (magnesium offers a short, very hot flame) and after gathering your tinder, scrape a small pile of magnesium (usually about the size of a pea if you can) onto your tinder. Once you expose the ferrocerium sparks to it, then it will ignite as a bright burst of flame. If you expose tinder to that flame, or create your pile of magnesium within the tinder bundle it should easily catch and hold a flame. Starting a fire with magnesium is very simple when combined with ferro rod fire starters. if your not sure \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/grimworkshop.com\/blogs\/news\/how-to-use-a-ferro-rod-for-fire-starting-in-5-easy-steps\"\u003ehow to use a ferro rod fire starter\u003c\/a\u003e we've got you covered on that too! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg style=\"margin-right: 34px; margin-bottom: 16px; margin-left: 34px; float: none;\" alt=\"how to use a magnesium fire starter necklace is easy with the magnesium dog tag\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0237\/0401\/0829\/files\/PhotoRoom-20230329_091318_2_480x480.png?v=1680099492\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Perfect Combo\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdd Grim's \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/grimworkshop.com\/products\/hot-shot-fire-starter-dog-tag?_pos=2\u0026amp;_sid=01531bee0\u0026amp;_ss=r\"\u003eHot Shot Fire Starter Dog Tag\u003c\/a\u003e to this tool for the perfect combo, containing a ferrocerium rod, as well as a high carbon steel striker these tools were made for eachother. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo see our other Pyro Products check out our entire collection of fire kits and fire starting tools \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/grimworkshop.com\/collections\/fire\"\u003eHERE\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e","brand":"Grim workshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39467226628173,"sku":"GwMagTag","price":8.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0237\/0401\/0829\/products\/PhotoRoom-20230329_091318_6.png?v=1680099347"},{"product_id":"hot-shot-magnesium-micro-tool","title":"Magnesium Micro Tool: USA Made Fire Starter Bar","description":"\u003ch1\u003eMagnesium Fire Starter Micro Tool\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Grim Workshop Hot Shot Magnesium Micro Tool is a vital addition to your everyday carry (EDC) kit, expertly designed for efficient fire-starting in any survival situation.
