Definitely going to get one of these.  Amazon is the cheapest (with shipping) I have found so far.

I order stuff from Amazon all the time so it will be cheaper for me there. Free shipping if you order over $25. Also poking around the 'net the Swedish one appears to be higher qualilty.

I finally got a fire to light with one of these today. Of course, I used cotton balls for tinder. And it took many tries. By the time I learn how to use the thing it will be used up!
