This is an Uberleben cup i was give several years ago. It’s my daily go to cup. Never wash it, just rinse it out. Sometimes I forget to rinse it out and coffee sits in it overnight. Consequences is that the cup has a great coffee patina inside and the outer side of the cup has a palm and lip oil patina. Bought one for my son and have sent it to him for his birthday. He gave me this original cup. It’s a wonderful cup.

I have the Kraftigs and Hexafires in the longer lengths, but the new Zuden rides perfectly in the rod holder on the kydex sheath for my TOPS Operator Seven bush knife. I also love the wood handle that offer better grip when I'm wearing gloves. I'd like to see better wood (i.e. walnut, hickory or other hardwood...with an option to replace the rod), but I can't complain one bit. Really nice product as I've come to expect from Uberleben! Will definitely be watching this company as they continue to...

Love my Kessel for stream side lunches. I like that I can keep a travel sized olive oil, butter, package of Ramen noodles with my Uberleben ferro rod all self contained in the pot. Easy to pack easy to assemble. Great stuff!

I absolutely love my Uberleben gear so far!! I will get a chance to use it all this weekend. For now I can say that it looks very dependable and long lasting!

OUTSTANDING....l really like this smaller sized rod with striker and wooden handle. It’s perfect for weekends and or short trips in my pack. It’s light weight and draws attention from my friends when I “fire-up” my pack stove. It seems everyone packs matches or a lighter now days and this thing becomes a quick conversation piece! It is amazing and lights any gas stove immediately. Not to mention the nightly campfire. The only problem...Everyone wants to put out the fire so they can prove they ca...

FANTASTIC, really this is the best gift I have received in a long time. It didn’t need a handle but I had a small black walnut branch in my firewood pile so I put it on my lathe drilled a hole or two and 👀 look. Pure awesomeness! This thing puts off some serious sparks. Do not use in home! It should come with a warning;) Seriously, buy two one for you and one for a gift! No one will top this gift. Thank you for making a quality product that will last a lifetime. Highly recommend. Lance Robins Lo...

Bought the Kuksa's and stoker flat pack for my brothers birthday, had a trail run today Sunday 6th the video clip is a bit dull as it rained and shifted position beneath a tree. He is extremely pleased with the stoker stove and Kuksa can't wait until April when we head of to the bush for the stags roaring.

Really, we bug out regularly [me and my boys] and enjoy the quality and know-how the Uberleben family construct and manufacture their entire bushcrafting line. We have it all. We absolutely love it! Avi

I followed the directions which was to remove the black coating. Grabbed some dry tinder, placed rod low into the tinder, one nice strike and voila! Very good product and some of my mates ordered it after my demo.

Bonji G.

As a prepper and overlander I first saw Uberleben products via Instagram and decided to give them a try. I was not disappointed with everything working as stated without flaws. I'm glad I went with the 6" hex ferro rod and Tindår Wick because they make flame making extremely easy. The Stöker Flatpack Stove facilitates those flames well and is strong enough to contain light flames to cook or boil water accordingly. At the time the Titanium version was sold out but I would suggest that instea...

Peggy K.

The Lore Kuska cup doesn’t stay clean long… mine is usually full. I’ve had it for about a 6 months now and I’m happy to say it’s my favorite adventure cup! Whether it’s holding mushroom tea like it is here or coffee or a nice dark beer… or breakfast. It’s the perfect size. I did manage to chip the top edge of mine so I’ll be doing a little modification to make it even more “mine”. When I received it I wiped it down with some beeswax and oil and routinely give it a fresh coat. It’s held up t...

I purchased the Kessel pot several months ago now. And I’ve used this over a campfire, on the stoker stove, on the stove at home and this last camping trip while navigating a series of violent storms I brought out my little propane stove. The heat distribution on this little kettle is amazing I had a full pot of boiling water in less than three minutes. It cleans up nice from soot over a fire. The versatility in the handle for being hung from a tripod, a stick, a chunk of firewood, or a rope c...

This is a great starter. Paired with the waxed rope you can start a fire in almost any conditions. The handle is a great feature that really adds to this product.

Roseanne S.

I just gifted my niece and her boyfriend their own set of Original Kuksa cups because I love the one I have owned for a year so much. I'd already given one of our sons, and his girlfriend, this cup, too. I use mine at home in the garden, as well as I do when I am hiking. Accidentally I left my cup on the lawn next to one of our gardens late last fall, perhaps on the last day we were working outside before winter closed in. I hunted for it inside on an off all winter. I found it right where I lef...

The picture shows my view when I am wearing the fire starter tool, always reminding me of the joy of a campfire. I will use it only in an emergency, it is a cool tool in my EDC.

Leicht | Wearable Fire Starter

Herbert D.

Pretty easy once you get the hang of getting sparks to land directly on to the wick. (At first it did take a little to get the hang of it; but pretty stoked about this products!)

I purchased these amazing cups for my wife and I plus each of our grown children and their spouses. We use them routinely for special toasting's and events. It is now a family tradition to bring our cups when we gather.

I enjoy having open fires while out in the backcountry, but if you're trying to reach someplace quickly, or don't have the time or ability to get a fire hot enough to boil your water or cook your food, this stove is your answer. It can boil my full 1/2 gallon bottle within 10 minutes of lighting my tinder, not to mention it burns very efficiently only leaving ash, and is basically a smoke-free fire even with damp wood. The fact that it can pack down flat is great for saving on space in your pack...

This fire rod has been highly rated by real and reliable professionals, so I decided to give it a try. Well, I'm happy to say that I was not disappointed and found the quality of the item exactly as praised, so really satisfied!

Giovanni T.

Make a 1” great Ferro rod, with a stainless handle! People will buy it, you see other people are doing it and making money! It doesn’t have to be a stainless steel handle, but make a good quality product. And we’ll buy it.

David E.

A Kuksa, Lore, Zunder Fatty, Tinderwick and the Kessel. All of these products from Uberleben rise to the top of their class. The quality is amazing. The performance is spectacular. The Kessel and Kuksa make for a great cup of campfire tea!

Jeremy R.

Love these great fire starters! They are large enough to start fires for a really long while! Quick shipping and packed well for the journey. I bought 5, one for every camping pack in the family. Got the kids practicing thier fire making skills and these awesome fire starting tools really make them feel like pros! Thanks for the fast service and quality products!

Andi C.

Great for kids. I was trying to teach my nephew's how to start a fire they fell in love with them. It was an experience we will always remember and continue to cherish when we go camping and enjoy the great outdoors. I just love giving them a great quality item. Their 11 and 9 years old so they won't out grow it too soon.

6" Hexa - WOW is what I hear everytime sparks shower several feet. Next thing I hear is "let me try!" 100% success from all ages getting Tindar Wick(Uberleben) to catch fire; grins from ear to ear. I had to order a couple more, maybe for gifts, maybe for me.

I have had metal cups for a while now that I used on my outdoor trips. The first time I used these wood cups from Uberleben I noticed the difference right away. Not only from saving my fingers from intense heat but keeping my coffee nice and warm for a good while. Highly recommend.

Original | Kuksa

Richard C.

I use my Kuska nearly every day for my morning coffee. I also like to use it for soups, chili, and will be trying it out with some tasty oatmeal very soon! I love the way the food takes on a more earthy tone coming out of the all wood Kuska. I would recommend the Kuska to all outdoorsmen/women who love the look and feel of wood and fine craftsmanship! Thanks Uberleben!

Love the quality ! Shaped perfectly & the thick leather strap is a nice touch. I absolutely love all the products. My Company issues all the products in our survival and bushcraft kits. Can't wait for the next new piece of gear!

Richard C.

I love my new Kuska and Kanu spoon! I use them nearly every day for coffee and for soup for lunch. They are compact enough to carry in my EDC bag so I tote them everywhere. I love the way the wood warms with the content and I think my coffee taste better because it allows for different flavors in the coffee to come out. I love my so much I just purchased one for my oldest son for his birthday! My only suggestion would be to make sure you include in every purchase a Uberleben sticker as that w...

This was my first non-gas fuel stove and I was super ‘stoked’ by its performance. Super light weight and easy to assemble (although some feedback for Überleben would be to include instructions perhaps?) I had it cooking my camp dinner in no time. It was also super cool to have my campfire safely contained. Could not recommend this product enough.

We love our kuksas! I modified this one to personalize it. We also bought the smaller model for our grandson, and look forward to using them together in our future adventures.

Eric Z.

I bought the 8in fire steel and it is perfect! Not only will it last a lifetime it's also a really nice feel! No tiny thing to hold on to with the 8in. One spark is all you need to get the wick going. I prefer the round version as apposed to the hex personally.

Kräftig | Fire Starter

Nicholas K.

Another great product by Überleben! The wick consistently catches fire every time as I hoped it would.. After seeing how well it worked the first time I used it. I instantly ordered a pack of replacement wicks for future use. This item is a perfect companion piece for the Überleben stoker stove as well. A++

Tindår | Wick & Bellow

Nicholas K.

All I have to say is that this awesome! I opted for the titanium Kessel to keep the weight down. The construction is excellent and it works better than expected. I will be using this along with my other Überleben products for years to come!

Kessel | Pot

Bill B.

This fire starter is awesome. I love the length and the flat sides. It produces a lot more sparks then my traditional fire starters. Paired with the tindar wick and Bellow it is no problem getting fires started even in wet conditions. I really enjoy using this product of my bic.

Michael A.

This is an amazing product! I have it tied to my Swiss army knife and it's always with me. The customer service is equal if not better than the product. I'm a customer for life.

I just received my pot and was able to use it on a turkey hunt where my son and I camped near our spot. We cooked a batch of pasta and a serving oatmeal using the Kessel 2.0. It’s the perfect size for my needs. I really appreciate the waxed canvas bag included as well. It makes transport a snap and also allows me to nest other items in the pot without fear of the lid coming off. I have multiple Uberleben products already and all of them are top notch. This pot is great addition to my load out.

What a great product! We have used this on the river, camping and just in the backyard. Very sturdy! So easy to pack and takes up so little space. Would definitely recommend this to anyone who loves cooking outdoors.

Andres L.

This was my first Uberleben product. After reading countless positive reviews, I pulled the trigger and purchased the Zunden and whoa! Blew my mind! This thing throws sparks like a dragon. Never fails. Always gets the fire going. Wet, cold, whatever. You're *GOING* to start a fire! This is an excellent product that goes everywhere I go.

Vincent T.

Very happy with high quality product. My girlfriend liked it so much she stole it! True. Now I need to order another. Moral of the story is don’t show the good stuff to your girlfriend.
