2) Cotton ball with vaseline folded into a sheet of wax paper x 5 (helps catch the spark) Hand sanitizer (multi use)(May add 4 or 5 trick candles) small innertube pieces wrapped around the bic lighters (emergency use only)
3) Gob Spark Armageddon, Book Matches, mini Bic Lighter in my cook kit, Mini Bic lighter in my Ditty bag
I take a weight penalty on the Gob Spark but its a godsend using in the cold with gloves and has been 100% reliable so far. The Morakniv is a 4.5 oz weight penalty but I am much more comfortable with a fixed blades in the woods. Also I like to have a redundancy in lighters
