The Doan Magnesium Firestarter was soon adopted by the US Armed Forces. Sol would always proudly state that our tool was standard issue in the survival kit of F16 fighter pilots. Over the years, an entire mini-industry of magnesium fire starters evolved, with the Doan Firestarter as the benchmark.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy scraping the \"shaving edges\" with your blade, you will accumulate a pile of magnesium shavings.\u003cbr\u003eSimply scrape the \"sparking insert\" to ignite the shavings at temperatures of 5400°F, hot enough to light even the most stubborn campfire!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eSTEP 1\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRest the edge of the tool on the ground.
