Overview: The UST Brands Wet Fire Tinder is one of the many products underneath Ultimate Survival Technologies. In the package it has a 5-year shelf life. The tinder itself looks kind of like a sugar cube. It’s actually a paraffin based fire tinder. UST recommends that you go ahead and grab your knife, or whatever you have lying around, and shave off just a little bit, because it’s a little easier to get it going with a small spot.

UST also makes a one handed fire starter called the Sparkie. In case you only have one arm and you can’t operate a fire starter the normal way, you have a one handed fire starter. So with a little pressure, just push right down and it will light right up. This is another great product that UST produces and it comes in very handy when starting a fire. It comes in five packs, eight packs and twelve packs. So check out UST Brands online at USTBrands.com. They are also in most of the big box stores so be on the lookout the next time you are out and about.
