UCO Sweetfire Strikeable Fire Starter, 8-Pack

This is tinder and a match in one piece. Snap off a Sweetfire point, strike it on the box like a match, and it burns for up to 7 minutes under your kindling. You don’t need a lighter or separate matches.

Why you’ll want it

• Lights on the box: each point has a strikeable tip, so the box is all you need.
• 7-minute burn: long enough to get kindling and small wood going.
• Use one at a time: 8 connected points snap apart individually.
• Made from sugarcane waste: it’s bagasse, a renewable biofuel, infused with vegetable wax.

How to use it

1. Snap off one point. Close the box so the striker is firm, then strike away from your body.
2. Set the lit point under your kindling and add wood as it catches.
3. Watch it until it has burned out completely.

Good to know: this is the original Sweetfire, not the stormproof version, so keep the box dry. For a wet-weather backup, pair it with the UCO Titan Stormproof Match Kit.
