Traditional Flint adhered to a magnesium block
Scrape shavings off the magnesium block with the hacksaw blade. Then ignite these by striking the blade down the flint showering sparks onto the magnesium. This burns readily and very hot so is an ideal catalyst to ignite your tinder.
Can be used for starting thousands of fires and will not let you down.
