Ok, first off, the guy who gave this a 1 star review, probably didn't know how to use it. I started a fire with this baby that turned into a raging 6' x 6' inferno, it took me all of 13 seconds. First off, you don't want CHUNKS of magnesium... you want to scrape it off into a fine powder, which is easier to ignite with the spark thrower on the reverse side. The spark thrower works flawlessly. This little tool easily lights kindling if you actually KNOW what you are doing. I even lit a friend's cigarette with it, just for kicks (and to see if I could do it).
The chain it comes on is crap, your typical ball chain that they put dollar store "dog tags" on. It is long enough that you do not have to take it apart to use both pieces though. I simply added a small extension from another ball chain I had, and now it is on a necklace length chain, easy fix. If it really bothers you, para cord is 5$ for 500 ft at my local hardware store, go get it.
