Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy.

Lads!!!!.....aren't we all rubbing sticks together and digging up flints?.........
No - me neither, so I use Bic minis 'cos they're compact and bijou in the brew kit.
If you stretch out both arms to represent all time on earth, then with one stroke of a nail file you could eradicate all human history, and 98 per cent of all human history was spent in the stone age.
To be honest, I just let someone else light the fire.

Used to do the whole Zippo thing many moons ago but got fed up with the fuel issue. Then went to cheapy lighters, then clippers, back to cheapy lighters and even tried some of those gas winproof types that just didn't seem to be windproof.
Back on the clippers again.
From recent postings that I have seen (if I maybe so bold - being a newby an' a' that) I presume that person is Jones, your faithful "butler" or is that "family retainer"!? ;-)To be honest, I just let someone else light the fire.

Ha ha, close. Invariably, it's Cawley, the Natural Bushcraft founder.
Seriously though, I really don't carry a lighter only a fire steel that was given to my by Ashley. That, along with cotton wool balls or even just a tissue is enough to get a fire going either on the ground or in my Honey Stove. My preferred way of cooking when out on the moors is gas with my MSR Pocket Rocket and that always fires up first time with my fire steel.
Really, no need to carry a lighter so I don't.

Just got this last week.
It's the Imco 6800 streamline and its ace, but i am a smoker.
The candle feature is what swayed it for me.
