Where I live there was a truck hauling magnesium wheels that caught fire. The fire department couldn't put it out with foam or anything else. All they could do is block traffic and watch it burn. Luckily it wasn't in the city limits and it wasn't fire season,or we'd have had a range fire. It did burn out a lot of the pavement. So yeah, it's an effective fire starter. I keep some in my kit.

In an emergency you would love to have a bag of this stuff! No playing around, just a real hot fire real fast. Magnesium burns hotter than any substance known to man and magnesium flares are used in fighter jets to draw heat seeking missiles away from the plane. Great product Brian, thanks for showing it.

Hi Brian. Yes, magnesium shavings is a great fire starter in calm weather conditions BUT not in less than calm conditions being windy, wet, cold, nearly frozen hands/body or a combination of all. For the shavings not to get blown away by the wind, use electrical tape strips lined with magnesium shavings down the middle of the sticky side of the tape but away from the edges/ends. Use duct tape for a wider magnesium strip for more intensity. Wrap a few tabbed strips (each with 1 easy grabbing folded over end) around a full size Bic lighter or 1 strip around a waterproof match. When ready, unwrap a strip off the lighter and ignite using lighter/ferro rod. If using the match, ignite with a match striker. Another pre-made method is to use a pot of boiling water to heat up 1 vessel of petroleum jelly and another of wax. Place the vessels in the boiling water until the contents are liquidfied. With a baking sheet ready on the side, use tong tips to take a fluffed up 100% cotton ball or non-fluffed 100% cotton wafer (found in store cosmetic aile) and soak thoroughly in liquidfied petroleum jelly, let drip and then soak thoroughly in liquidfied wax. Afterwards, place on wax paper and insert a waxed protruding match head wick (or waterproof match) and cover generously with magnesium shavings before the wax cools entirely. When ready, use lighter/ferro rod/match striker to ignite. Weather resistant, 3 way fast ignition and long burn, enough to boil water. Another is the sawdust egg. Using a CARDBOARD egg carton, LINE the inside of the egg wells to the top with liquidfied wax. Place sawdust in the egg well to the top and pour just enough liquidfied petroleum jelly on the sawdust to soak in. Insert short waxed (or waterproof) protruding match head wick. Top off with liquidfied wax (will soak into cardboard) and cover generously with magnesium shavings. Let cool. Cut the carton into individual eggs with the cardboard intact. When ready, ignite with lighter/ferro rod/match striker. The cardboard also helps as a bit more fuel. 3 way fast ignition, long burn enough to boil water. All are highly weather resistant. The only way to fail is to not have a lighter/ferro rod/match striker. Then wait for a sunny day and use a magnifying glass/lens. LOL ! Brian, just a few ways to effectively/ efficiently maximize magnesium shavings. I'm a new viewer and only saw a handful of your vidz. So far, I like them. GOD helps those who help (prep) themselves. Stay cool. GOD Bless America.

Simple, if its windy and wet, take a magnesium bar and tuck it in with the shavings of a full bag and light the shavings with a blow torch. The resulting fire will burn so hot that a pile of green leaves and twigs with a soggy wet limb and log on top of it will ignite immdiately after a storm,

Wow, I mentioned this very same thing in a response to one of your magnesium fire starter blocks. Based on the price of the blocks at harbor freight (which come with their own ferro rod and little striker), I actually saved money as opposed to his cost. I put several blocks on my drill press and with different sized drill bits, on slow speed, and made my own shavings. With the different sized bits, I virtually had no waste. Packaged everything up and used small, sealed candy tins and medicine bottles to keep everything airtight and waterproof instead of cellophane bags.This goes in my small ammo can, which is also airtight and waterproof. I enjoyed killing time and repurposing things that would have gone in the trash. After several trips outdoors in wet and dry weather, I definitely trust my system.

I have used a magnesium bar in the past and was not impressed with the results. This product makes a lot more sense. With the magnesium already processed into shavings, a fire can be started without a lot of hassle. Trying to start a fire with wet material can be tough and magnesium is perfect to overcome that. Thanks for presenting this product. I am going to get some cause I love me some fire too.

I keep a bic in my pocket, a fresnel lense in my wallet, a peanut lighter wrapped in tape in a ziplock bag in my BOB, along with a UCO lantern and beeswax candle .I've never had any need of anything but the Bic and the UCO It's so easy to light the UCO, even in wind and rain, and then just use the candle to ignite scrapings and shavings. The lantern is my backup lighting and can be used to dry out an armful of debris while inside of my bivy. I carry a couple of the $25 each, 1/4 lb each Amazon full body bugnet "suits". With dry grass stuffed between those suits, they serve very well as longjohns. When I add some drum liners, debris and a 2Go Systems 1.5 lb Trifecta XL bivy, i'm good to sleeping at 10F without a fire or any heavy clothing. i do add a shemagh, balaclava, gloves, sock liners, un-laced shoes.

I just got my order in. I did order the one that comes with 5 bags and the matches. BUT I wish Joe would put the match striker in another place. It came on the bottom of the tin, so if you set the tin down on wet ground the striker is going to get wet. How about putting it in the inside of the lid or even put a few strips in the water proof match holder as there is room in there.

Learned in the 70's about magnesium and have even seen magnesium scraped off of canopy frames and outdoor metal chairs. However I still prefer my Clipper lighters. Found on Amazon for $8 for 12.

Try mixing some heart pine " fat lighter" sawdust with the magnesium. It will burn much longer and still be as hot as original pile of magnesium. Saw some heart pine with your Silky Saw and collect the sawdust. When the magnesium is burned up you will still have a hot bed of embers.

Really, the best test of magnesium I have seen to date. Thank you! But I think this really tells us that if you are going to carry the fire starter w/you, Can't really beat cotton balls and pet. jelly for duration, wind resistance and price. Anything you demonstrated w/the mag shavings can definitely be done with petballs. And to be fair, the first test you performed utilized the wet tinder (outside) and then used dry tinder over it. I would be willing to bet, also, that the thumb stick that wouldn't ignite would with a 4 min. petroball. Love the vids you do and the learning we garner from you. ATB

Interesting vid, thanks. I wondered about this stuff. I dislike big old ferro rods, throwing sparks all over the place. Pretty to look at maybe, but a waste of $ and rod in many respects. I'm using the little one-handed wheel sparkers now and prefer those. More efficient, IMHO. Your best demo was the last one, starting the little fire. Made me wonder how this would perform in a real rain and wind. Looked like it might fight off raindrops long enough to get your fire to take life. If a person had the space, looks like it wouldn't be a bad idea to have one of these magnesium packets in a firestarting kit.

Not a huge fan of magnesium...but I do have some. I get that it burns hot and blocks of it are relatively cheap and stable....but it's burn time is so dang short. Hot yes. Long no. So unless you are really ready with a fair amount of great tinder at hand and unless you move pretty quickly, the average pile most people shave out tends to burn off before they've had time to do anything effective with it...especially with sub optimal tinder. And by sub optimal I don't mean dry tinder that you spill water on...I mean damp deadfall in a rain storm. I suppose that makes these bags of pre-shaved tailings much more useful as you can pour out a substantial pile and improve burn time. Pour enough out and I imagine it'd be hard to beat a few minutes of 4,000 fahrenheit!! That said, the thing I've found to be the most reliable, affordable, easiest to light, wind resistant, and better than decent burn time is the DIY cotton fire disc. Melted beeswax, old candle wax, or gulf wax, and a splash of liquid paraffin lamp oil in roughly a 10 to 1 ratio (10 parts solid wax to 1 part liquid paraffin) does the trick. Dip em, cool em, and pack em. You can make literally a hundred for about 10 bucks. Cheap enough to have them literally everywhere. In the car, in the first aid kit, in the pack, hell.....lay it flat and they'd fit in a wallet (though you'd want to find a way to package it to keep he paraffin off the wallet. I roll mine into little cotton/wax cigars and then seal them inside those oversized "boba tea" plastic straws. The disc is already waterproof by virtue of being saturated with wax but they can melt on hot days so......just pinch the end of the straw with needle nose pliers, seal that end with a lighter, slip in your firestarter into the tube, trim the straw down, seal the other end the same way and Voila! Permanently sealed firestarter discs that never dry out, float, and they can't melt out on a hot day in your pack or the glovebox. Need a flame? tear it half way, fluff up the cotton fibers and put a spark to it. Mine almost always catch on the first ferro strike and I've even gotten them going with sparks from an empty Bic. I get a strong, tall, highly wind resistant flame, that burns for about 6-7 minutes. That's a lot of time to nurse a small sub optimal tinder pile to life. Never had to use them in an emergency but they are just the thing for getting my firebox nano going!!

Hey Ken. I took a look at the video laurie williams posted, pretty cool. You can go here: survivalonpurpose.com/contact-us/ and I will get back to you. I try not to post my actual email because of the spam robots, I get enough spam already ;-)

Brian, I would bet a bag of Maya Dust/Fatwood Dust would burn longer and work just as well(lower heat longer duration) and you would not feel like a trader to fatwood ;-) ebay Georgia-Heart-Pine-Dust-Fat-Lighter-Fatwood-Kindling-Fire-Starters-Tinder-8-Oz

That is too much magnesium to use for starting a fire with and I would just stay with the Ferrod rod and work with that instead.
