Black Beard Fire Starters ReviewsSee store reviews

I ordered the Pirates plunder kit and all I have to say is I am impressed. I live in Florida so a cool night is low 90’s but I sure had a fire the day I got my kit. I put it through all the test examples they showed and it did not disappoint. This is an Awesome item for a bug out bag, but also to have around the house for easy way to start a fire. I am 100% satisfied with this fire starter kit and highly recommend it. I actually am going to buy another kit. AWESOME 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

This is a great little fire helper. It lights up easily and anywhere, even wet :) I will certainly keep this in my go bag and camping storage boxes. And I'll definitely order more as needed. As always, thank you Blackbeard team for an awesome product.

I love it! I bought one last year for myself and it is a perfect piece of kit for the truck anytime I'm out, it's always with me. I bought this one for my brother and he loves it. Thank you for a great product!

I've only had the chance to use it to start the firepit in the yard but it works beautifully. Can't wait to put it to the test out camping. Highly recommend these products.

Everything looks great! I haven't used them yet. I have them as a backup for rainy day camping, fire starting. This will be when I go camping, which will be soon.

Good fire starter. The way i use them they burn with a good flame for about 4 1/2 minutes and are out at 5 minutes. May burn longer in other conditions. I am happy with them.

This fire starter kit is awesome! Bought it as a gift for my dad and he broke it out right away to try it out and absolutely love it. We will be buying more, thanks Black Beard!

Reliable and easy to use. Lights fast, burns long enough to catch kindling, and works well even in windy or damp conditions. Compact and perfect for camping or emergency kits. A bit pricier than DIY options, but super convenient and consistent. 👍

This is really a good company...not my first purchase. I bought the pirates kit and it works like a charm...really good tinder and easy to light with the incuded chargeable lighter or ferrel rod. So, I decided to order the fire plugs so I can put them in anything including my medic kit, backpacks, and vehicles....I have only lit one and it works as advertised and burns for a long time if you follow the instructions on the videos...I can recommend these products to anyone.

This lighter worked just as it was designed to work. I was cutting wood in below zero temps and used the electric lighter with the one of the fire starter plugs and I had a blaze in a matter of a few minutes.

A great set that comes with a plasma lighter and 2 fire starter sticks. Starting a remote camp fire has never been easier and it was the price that made it a done deal! I recommend Blackbeard Fire Starters!

Thank you for such an innovative and timely product. Purchasing your products was a no brainer when it comes to being prepared for the eventuality of having to survive power outages and such. Thanks again..!!

Great little kit organizer. Must have when you wanna keep all your stuff ready to go. We keep our kit handy for quick deployment. Fire and coffee everything else after when camping. Lol

Had not pulled the lighter out of kit for a year, had a problem with the lighter. I called customer service and they sent new one! Thanks awesome customer service

I've ordered from Blackbeard before....it was a 5 piece pack with 3 pieces rope,a farro rod and case and just had to get this package. Your product has helped me stay warm while camping and hunting in Northwest Alaska.

Awesome carring case I have not needed to use it yet it was purchased for survival purposes and god willing I will never use it but my piece of mind feels great knowing this product will save my life if it needs to thank you

I tried the arc lighter and it works as advertised. Then I tested the rope with the fire steel and it took me under a minute to get a nice fire going with small kindling that would have never been able to catch a spark on its own. I like that the kit comes with 2 ignition sources, a nice pouch that adds to a modular kit and a tinder that’s pretty much fool proof. Made in the USA completes this nice package. I recommend!

Excellent. Bought it as a gift for my sister-in-law who is a new Girl Scout leader and teaching a new group of girls. She loved it and used/demonstrated it on a recent weekend camping trip. I also made a couple of Quick Fire go kits(one for each car) for myself. Recommended. Thank you very much.

I've been teaching my daughter how to start campfires. We absolutely love the Blackbeard plugs! She's so proud everytime she gets the fire going and the plugs really help. Thank you for such a great product.

We bought this for camping and they wrok so dang good. Still using them at home for the firepit. We will have to buy more to keep in our survival bag. Highly recommend great product. Thank you

I used it a couple of times started a fire in my backyard fire pit big enough to put a pallet in. It worked really great. Was it difficult for me a little bit to push down with a blade because my arm was really really sore. However, I did get it to work. I thought it was amazing. Thank you for making such a great product.

As soon as it arrived, I immediately pulled the stick out and cut some up to start a fire in my fire pit. The day was particularly windy, so I was extremely pleased when the Black Beard fire starter worked without fail. I would highly recommend this product to anyone.

Wonderful product that worked exceptionally well. The trip started off clear with no rain in site. By dinner the clouds came in with a light rain. Fire starter worked as advertised, great meal and a good start for the campfire. You have a new fan of your products.

as much as I like the BB ferro rod there are a few things to do to make it work much better. This called for lengthening of the cordage so that I was better able to use the striker producing the awesome shower of sparks.

Sadly, parts of Ore are in a RED FLAG WARNING... no sparks anywhere! But you can rest assured that I'll be using said kit this Fall.. This Product is top notch, no substitute for quality. Boone2beers

MY 9 YR OLD WAS ABLE TO GET IT TO LIGHT IN TWO SCRAPES ON THE FERRO ROD! I COULD DO IT ALSO AND I HAVE NEVER TRIED TO LIGHT A FIRE! GREAT PRODUCT! I WILL DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT!

Kit came in nice package. The plasma lighter is awesome. Material lights quickly and burns long. My only complaint is it’s kinda hard to get all the stuff back in easily which I just took out one pack of fire starters and tossed them in my bag. Probably best not to have everything all together anyway

Great product, we got the gold rope and it lives up the the ad unlike many other products in the market. When we run out in 150 fires we will be buying again.

Sometimes you see videos and you really dont know if the product will work as good as they say, this product didnt disappoint! Makes starting a fire so much easier!

Got this as a gift for my son and husband, they were very excited. They used the ferro rod and fire plug in the strong wind and it worked as advertised. Very happy with this purchase 🙂

I've used them camping, hiking and in all weather conditions. Just a must have. That's why I bought more of them for family and friends for gifts. Thank You for a awesome product.

I started one of the fire plugs just to see how it worked. It was great! I didn’t time it, but it burned intensely for several minutes. That’s enough time to get just about any fire going Then, I let my adult son try one. He tore it in half and it worked just about as well. He is convinced that you only need half a plug to start a fire. Great product!

I haven’t had time to use it yet but it looks great my friends also have the same kind what I got I thought there was a small pack of plugs to that came with it but that’s ok next time… Thank you so much for this product……!!

I absolutely love my black beard fire starter it is awesome I had my grandsons who are 8 and 12 get a fire going on their own in under 5 minutes I will send a video on Sunday when they do a sleepover of them getting a fire started they were absolutely thrilled with how it worked and so am i

Photos and videos to come. Black bread Firestarter work so good. I haven't been this happy with a product in a very very long time. There customer service is top notch all my emails concerning my order were immediately answered. When I accused them of it being a AI generated answer. I was proved wrong immediately. Thank you so much for such a outstanding product.

I have appreciated your complete product line, from your starters and complete kits with lighter and other items. they make great gifts, because everything works well. Have enjoyed all of the dealings i have had with your company through the last few years. Keep up the good work. Dick Fox

I haven't had the chance to venture out of NYC yet to go camping. So I have not put the product to a test. But I like what I received it's as described and I'm confident it will work. Service and delivery were great 👍 . I'll keep you posted. Thank you!

Really cool product! We use two everytime we start a file and they burn for a good 5-8 minutes and get everything started really nicely. They pack a punch for as small as they are! So much better then buying the huge starter log. Thanks!

This rod really works well compared to others I have had. Many sparks and lights kindle quickly as long as it is dry. If not dry then mix some dry paper with it and it lights quickly. Easy to store in case along with lighter and fire sticks. Definitely recommend this product.
