Fire starting and survival go hand-in-hand like peanut butter and jelly. I’m not much of a bushcraft person so more modern, simple fire-starting methods have been the mainstay of my fire-starting catalog for some time. Butane lighters – including the famous Bic lighter – if my main method.
In the following video, I discuss my stocking up on butane lights.

butane lighters are a great prepping item. its like buying food. some extras every week will add up fast. i have come to think of them as good barter items. you can build a lot of fires with just one so they will be valuable if something bad were to happen. those long ones would be handy also but my experience has been that they don’t seem to last long in storage, i don’t know why, YMMV.
good luck to all and thanks again Mr Rourke
