## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A controllable burn and easy to handle.
*by F***E on June 5, 2015*

My wife had concerns about my ordering of this cordage.  After burn testing it, I feel confident braiding the Firecord into my bracelets and fobs.  Also, I am impressed with the burn performance.  The internal fire string burns very nicely when freed from the braid; however, you can melt the cordage and control the burn while it is only lightly exposed.  This makes it very easy to terminate or connect lengths of cordage just as yo do with normal 550 cordage.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent product, lit with a single strike.
*by L***N on April 23, 2017*

I pulled about 4" of the inner kindling line out from the cord, used my blade to fray it into a ball of fibers, and lit it with a single shower of sparks from my Doan striker. It burned long enough and hot enough to easily ignite any dry kindling I added to it.  I think would take this over magnesium as an initial kindling source any day. It burned longer and was more controlled.  The Mg is certainly hotter and it may be useful in wet conditions to spark a secondary ignition source but, for my tests, I liked the FireCord the best. I only mention the Doan striker by name because, like this firecord, it actually works!  Done makes true mil-spec.  (amazon part #B0079SEGO2)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for fire-starting! Will YOU like or hate the smell?
*by A***Y on July 30, 2016*

This was purchased by my husband for him and my daughter to make survival bracelets. The two of them liked everything about product EXCEPT the smell. My husband finds the smell unpleasant. My daughter didn't like that the smell—which reminds her of essential oils—transferred from the bracelet to her skin. I personally find the smell pleasant, like the natural smell of an evergreen. I was impressed with how well the inner cord burned, providing a bright, slow, odorless burn that would definitely work well for fire starting. Bottom line, my husband would definitely purchase again for the inner cord's impressive fire-starting properties.
