The NanoSTRIKER is a small lightweight ferrocerium rod. It features a replaceable ferrocerium bit housed in a 6061 aircraft aluminum body with a 440C striker. Threading on the body allows each of the three pieces of the NanoSTRIKER to be fully open or sealed. When sealed the striker is fully inclosed in the body it is protected from the elements and it's very compact and easy to carry. I've been carrying the Nanostriker everyday since it arrived. It fits great in a pocket (which is how I prefer to carry it) or on a keychain. It weighs almost nothing which makes it so desirable that along with its size. Not to mention the feel and look of it. I never thought I would call a firesteel beautiful but it is. Speaking of appearance it also comes in a variety of colors. In terms of use it performs just like any other ferrocerium rod. A good strike gives you a decent amount of sparks. The only negative I have found thus far is that the size of the striker makes it a little uncomfortable and hard to grip. They do however provide you with a short length of paracord to be used as a lanyard. Overall I am very happy with the NanoSTRIKER and I would surely recommend it to anybody looking for a ferrocerium rod that is light, strong, and has some cool features.
