The striker is designed to come out of the clasp, just pull on the exposed end, the compass is a "tap top" gently tap once when your holding it in a stationary position to ensure free movement. The cord can come undone and used for multiple things. -US army SGT Anthony Har

You have to use striker to shave off some of the flint rod (the magnesium it's made of is extremely flammable), use flat end of striker and press teeth against flint rod hard and rub it up and down the flint rod to shave off the magnisium until you get a nice tiny pile of it (I recommend you use the back end of the flint rod that's on the inside of the bracelet (the side your skin touches) scrape that side off and strike from the outer side (the side compass is on)).
Place the pile of magnisium onto some dry brush or your toilet paper, writing paper, etc. The sparks, when they hit the shavings will ignite it quickly.
That's how you use it. I hope that helps.
Thanks for your sacrifices to our country man, 💚🖤💚🖤💚
@@theyframedme dude your amazing
Just bought it this clears up alot
Thank you for your service

I have these bracelets and have tested the fire starter a few ways ; fat wood scrapings , cotton ball ( covered in vaseline ) and quick tinder. It performed perfectly every time. The key is how you prepare the material that you want to catch fire ;)
Give away all of your paracord bracelets cuz everybody really needs some and they don't have enough money to buy them please give us all of your survival paracord bracelet please give us all your paracord bracelets if you don't give me a thumb
It cost 99cents with shipping now so it isn't worth asking.
@@7oker661ikr got mine off temu and was perfectly fine with everything despite the cheap ass price
Thanks for the review lol. I thought I was striking mine wrong. I was and now it works
Me too lol
i tried it and even though im doing it right it still doesnt work
@tequaa_ 2 years late but if you scrape off the black stuff and scrape it hard it should work, mine did same type
I was so confused why the striker wasn’t working because I didn’t know there was a covering but it works great thanks for the information
why do they add that
@@edmund8954 to prevent oxidising or something 🤷♂️
This is a Dollarama product.
That being said, for the1$ I paid for mine, I am impressed.
Pro tip. Using a folded piece of wire threaded through the pattern, you are able to pull things like fishing line or snare wire bundles into the core of the bracelet. I also made a wooden bead out of fatwood and added 3 different fish hooks ( with a bead of hot glue on the sharp barb) safety tucked into the pattern. The blade is terrible and hard on the fero rod, I ground mine to a flat pointed blade(without teeth) without messing up the hardened steels temper(yep it hardened), thus blade pulls out easily and doubles as one arrow head, and a darn good one.
The para cord center, when frayed with your mini knife is absolutely amazing tinder, and is easily cut off a small section at a time.
The compass is decently accurate as long as it's UNCLIPPED from the firesteel side. The compass is sensitive to metals. If you stash a bundle of wire in the bracelet pattern, keep it to the same side as the steel, so you don't need to remove your snare wire to an accurate reading on your compass. Also, hold the compass AWAY from the body, or set it down on a level surface to take measurements.
The whistle won't help you if you are being murdered, or drowning.. ridiculous. The space I side the whistle is rather large and could hold all sorts of things, like your cocaine or heroine(Wake-ups/Tylenol).
Sweet bracelets
Mine was a good tight wind so I could put an amazing amount of basic life support items.
To be fair, the whistle isn't meant to save you from being murdered, that's what self-defense tools & techniques are for. Or from drowning, that's what swimming is for. ;)
That aside, the whistle is meant to attract attention should you ever find yourself stranded or lost and you can't find your way out of that situation without someone else's help. For example, getting attention from people on a boat going down the river through the jungle/woods while you're lost in it somewhere. They're far enough so they can't hear you yelling, but the high pitch sound of the whistle cannot be as easily drowned out by the noise of engines or waterfalls or waves crashing into rocks, as human voice can. Also, should you ever get truly lost or suffer an accident and you're unable to shout for help loud or long enough, and people know you're lost and are looking for you, a whistle can attract the attention of rescue dogs very easily because they can hear it from a long way away (a lot better than humans can, that's for sure).
Yes, it's a very specific kind of survival tool that works in very specific types of situations that you don't want to find yourself in, but it can mean the difference between life and death so you should not knock it (yes, I'm being serious now). Ever heard of the guy who got trapped by a rock in the canyons of Moab, Utah? Had he had a whistle, maybe someone passing nearby with a dog would actually find him. Instead, he had to cut his arm off to survive. It's a true real life story and his name is Aron Ralston (he's still alive to my knowledge). A Hollywood movie called "127 Hours" was made about his ordeal and it features James Franco, Amber Tamblyn and Kate Mara. A pretty good movie in my opinion, very dramatic at times and you can feel his anguish and fear as he contemplates the option of dying in that narrow and dark canyon because he can't free himself. You can also find his story here on UA-cam, search for "story of Aron Ralston".
Another movie was also made about a similar type of situation (and I'm sure many others but I can't remember them off the top of my head), though it is not based on real life events like 127 Hours. A young woman surfer is trapped on a rock some 200 yards from the beach and a great white shark is praying on her nearby. I won't spoil it though, I'll just say that it's very realistic in the beginning and if she had a whistle to signal to the 2 guys on the beach (surfers that were leaving) that she was in trouble, her entire ordeal would have been avoided. It's called "The Shallows" and it features Blake Lively (not really known for big roles or acting prowess, but she was actually pretty good in this movie).
That looks very cool .Might come useful when I go camping in year 4
just bought a two-pack for me and my boyfriend and we are sure to have many fun adventures with them :D
the striker is magnetic so it can affect your compass. if you want your compass to do right, you should then take off the bracelet so the magnetic striker dosent affect it
It's actually just metal and metal affects the compass.
Magnesium isnt magnetic.
Ohhh
I don’t think it does affect it because I have one of those and it stays the same when it is clipped in
@@uselesscrap2701 there is no magnesium in there
I’m a 14 Yr old girl with EXTREMEEEE paranoia I have some experience and am an explorer scout got this for Christmas a couple years ago But was too small for my wrist so Put it round my ankle haven’t taken it off Love it so much, Yeah hopefully I never need it but it’s good to take on Trips
Wow. I'm pathetic. Never realized that was fire starter. I though it was just a line up pin for the buckle and serrated knife was suppose to be used for cutting stuff. I bought a pack of 3 of these bracelets on Ebay for $12.00. Wear one and through the other 2 in my 72 hour survival bag. Good vid
R/relateable
love ur review. was so honest and genuine!
I happened to be in the middle of giving my two to my 9 year old cousin when I looked at this video. I am planning on showing his mom this video so that they can share it with him and teach him how to use this stuff.. Do you think a pretty responsible 9 year old can handle it?? I don't have kids😁 and YES, I'M THAT AUNT/OLDER COUSIN😁
It's definitely not weird or uncommon to wear the big part of the bracelet on top of your wrist. I do the same and I always point the whistle inward towards my body so in the rare event that I were to fall and really injure myself it would be easier to blow if I couldn't remove it from my wrist and, I was trying to alert someone of my location. Yes, I know that I'm probably overthinking things lol but that's just how my brain works 🤦🏾♂️😂
I bet your a black guy , wright?
let there be light if I win a prize YES but if not then yes 😂
I actually have this too but is more strong and delighting its indeed pretty easy to spark
Thank you men, greetings from Costa Rica
Thank YOU!
hello buddy,you can check new ebay store! same product! www.ebay.com/itm/252502432275?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1558.l2649,wish u like it!
The coating on it is magnesium, burns super hot it helps to start fire. Obviously the coating would all be gone by your 3rd fire
So it can be worn out?
i got the same one with my Hydragear water bottle, but mine is black with a white/grey stripe in the middle. but my metal scraper doesnt show, it goes inside a thing when you clip it, making it hidden
Same one but black and orange
Pin this comment so people know! There are also 2 compartments on the side that you can put cotton balls with vasoline or any kind of fire starter. Also, the compass is also a water level because of the bubble inside of it. Last but not least, the metal striker is also a bottle opener. :D
Ty! :D
Idont see tha compartnents
I got a camouflage green one on Amazon for £1.04 it was quality and cheap definitely worth it
Random Rio they are worth it
Wow I got this for christmas and didn't know it had all these functions
Kita betai! Bala oise, Amazing !! 👍🏻❤️
I live in Canada, bought one of these from the dollarama for $2.50 lol works beautiful
I got mine at dollarama for the same price!
i just got it yesterday for 1.62 dollars in gear best
I've got this but with a water proof watch
Not to hate on your video or anything like that actually it was a very good video to show what I was buying but I just bought the exact same bracelet and mine was 2.64 and I bought it on alien press very amazing site to buy expensive stuff for free
do they allow you to wear this on the plane or you have to put it in the luggage?
Why would you need it on your wrist on the plane?
quick call homeland security! =)
in case the plane crashes and i survive duh...
@@angelicaflores6593 ROFL true
There will be no problem wearing this on the airplane ✈️ .
Thanks for explaining the fire striker part i wondered why i didnt get spark
Just bought one today and came here to figure how to light….8 years later.
Thanks
How long does the Flint or whatever e stuff is on the rod last could it be used a lot for striking or only few times ? I'm going camping and plan to use this as fun and light fires with it but how many time it lasts ?
Wolf Reviewing it last until it dissapears
Wouldn't rely on it. It's okay for like a few uses. Like 10.
The jagged teeth on the steel is hard on the rod. Grind it flat. Lasts for a few 100 lights at least
I got the exact same one today but green
I have a bunch of these. In my opinion, you can never have enough fire strikers or paracord xD
I got that bracelet as a gift with the katana I bought.
Go into any U.S. Army recruiting center and they have these for FREE in black or O.D. (while supplies last).
Nice Video! Sorry for the intrusion, I would appreciate your opinion. Have you tried - Lammywalness Important Tool Guide (search on google)? It is an awesome one off guide for discovering how to get a a FREE Firekable Paracord Bracelet survival tool minus the hard work. Ive heard some decent things about it and my cooworker at last got cool success with it.
You can make the striker longer so it would be better to use
Bonjour, j'aimerai avoir la NOTICE DE RÉGLAGES que je n'ai pas reçue avec la montre. Où dois-je la demander? Merci
Hello, I would like to have the SETTINGS NOTICE that I did not receive with the watch. Where do I ask for it? Thank you
Mine has all that stuff plus a watch so I just wear it as an everyday watch.
how much of the coating do u need to scrape through on the fire starter to get a good spark every time ?
+Dylan Morgan not much. After a few quick scrapes, I was getting sparks.
get it down to the bare metal and you should see sparks
Thanks it’s really use full
The Sahara sailor person just bought the bracelet from Atomic Bear and sold it and said they made it.
Thx I just got it and wanted to try it
How do you unwind/use the paracord?
probably cut with a knife
Got this same one
I have one of those with a knife on
I got the version with the watch. That striker and fire steel is crap. I've made a few fires with fire steels. I dont see it lighting anything other than those premade fire tablets. Vs a good fire steel can easily light feather sticks. And my temperature gauge doesnt work. The compass is affected by the striker while connected. So to get a correct you will have to un snap it and get the striker away from the compass. This is a good idea but could've been done much better. But for 10$ I'm not complaining. But dont plan on wearing it and depending on it. I EDC a swiss army knife with a good fire steel tied to it
How do u use the rope ?
Thank you very helpful!
the thing I find funny is people almost never really see what it takes apart a paracord braclet.
+Tim Barton I took this one completely apart ua-cam.com/video/vLUp9hmEVBk/v-deo.html
I bought this because I wanted a compass you can wear on your wrist. The problem is that when you put it on the metal striker throws it off. You have to take it off to make it useful. Very disappointing. Would be helpful to mention that somewhere.
How do you adjust the strap mon ?
You redo the whole knot, or make yourself one which is tailored to your liking.
how to adjust? The rope? My hand is to small
How do you change time
can someone explain to me how to properly read the compass...most have a "fixed" red line but mine does not
The compass is magnetic and the striker might be messing with it. Try removing it.
@@MrMOd3RnW4rF4R3 how do you change the date and month
How do u set up the time?
How do I set the time
Can you replace the flint or whatever is called... can it be replaced??
m4rc0 Dιαz yes the flint fire starter can be replaced
I sell these bràclet s
is this compass accurate?
Yes
Is that your question?

I bought mine today at a local shit and stuff shop for 1.80 € and it works perfectly.
cool stuff
how zo remove coding
Sweet
Bro I need help I can t open the thingy from where I drink the water from 💀😭😭
Compass is not working ok
On Amazon you can buy it for 1 euro
I'm looking for the same exact bracelet but I can't find it anywhere. Help!
Chef Panhead of eBay for about 2 dollars
I mean it's cool and all but I really wish people would stop buying these. Not only is it cheaper to make your own (literally like the same amount of money you spend on one of these, you can spend on all the supplies and make at least three (with tons of paracord left over) but it also gives you the knowledge in the different bracelet combinations and such.
kael starwynd Really want to do one myself but don't know where to get the supplies, any suggestions ?
You can get most of the stuff in bulk for cheap on ebay. That's where I got my supplies. A few random things I added were purchased at Wal-Mart though as I didn't need too many of them.
kael starwynd oh okay, thanks.!
would it be ok if i put this video on my website? i sell this item
+vladimyr Michel go for it!
I have the same one lol
wow that's hilarious............................
How exactly is that funny ?
U can get it on eBay for $1.28
How long is it???
**cough** -18 inches
I bet like 8 inches (all jokes aside
i have that
You disappeared for awhile! And you didn’t show how to get the paracord loose.
I found one that is 5.89 I think
These all make me dislike them the more I look at them, don't bet your life on these.
Why not? I understand they are minimalist-like but are they completely useless?
idk who makes mine but it looks the same and the compass fell out instantly. cheap
I got mine for free 😂 and also has a knife
I bought for $ 1.00 at the site called wish
I bought some and it was like 6 dollars
I love you
I love anal
Have the exact same bracelet and my compass is the most dodgy thing ever. Everything else is good but the arguably most important thing is busted

I got one for 1$ on wish
i bought this only for 1$

Yeah but you didn't show how to use the damn paracord Didja.

Looks like a peice of cheese!

This design is bad. The paracord would take forever to untie if you actually needed it, and it won't yield terribly much to work with. A quick release style of braid is more suited for a survival bracelet as many quick release braids are designed to release quickly (obviously), and contain much more cord in the braid.
