Firefly is a firesteel flint type fire starter tool accessory replacement for the Swiss Army knife toothpick. Designed and manufactured by Tortoise Gear for use in Victorinox brand knives. Regular size Firefly replaces 50mm slanted top toothpicks for use in Victorinox knives 84mm and larger. The Firefly is made from a superior custom ferrocerium misch-metal formula giving it many advantages. The softer custom metals mix provides greater flexibility making it less brittle and giving it double the break strength of a typical firesteel or ferrocerium formula. The softer metals formula also allows for bigger sparks without harming the relatively soft stainless steel metal tools of Swiss Army knives. The Firefly mix sparks very easily with very little pressure needed during the strike. Every Firefly comes with a glow-in-the-dark top. When charged in sunlight this provides up to 12 hours of glow to help find your knife or Firefly at night. Two color choices are available: Neon green-yellow glow, and classic ivory glow. Firefly products come in high quality packaging with fully illustrated instructions for use printed on the inside. The re-closable clam shell can be used to store removed toothpicks and extra Fireflys. Firefly products are backed by a 1 month manufacturer warranty against any manufacturing defects. Review: This is a perfect way to add a Ferro rod to your Swiss army knife. Just swap out the toothpick, and you are good to go. Will only fit on the mid size or larger models (81mm +) but you want them that size for outdoors use anyway. And you will probably want a corkscrew model because you can get the fire starter kindling that fits into the corkscrew as well. Look for a Huntsman, a Trekker or similar Swiss army knife. The wood saw will make an excellent striker for these rods. Just remember that they are brittle and always strike on the narrow edges. Very reliable way to start a camp fire, with a little bit of practice. Review: It’s great quality for what it is, a better than nothing option when you need it. I would not use it regularly because it is brittle but definitely happy with it over a tooth pick. You have to hold it and strike it properly per the instructions or it will break. I broke one of three and that was my fault but I still made a fire using the broken piece. Just know that it wouldn’t hold up as regular use item but it definitely beats a tooth pick any day. ## Features - Direct plug and play firesteel fire starter replacement for the toothpick in Victorinox brand Swiss Army knives and tools - Superior quality flint formula - Easy to spark, twice the break strength, makes big sparks, easy on knife tools - Glow-in-the-dark top - comes in a bright neon green-yellow color or classic ivory - Regular Firefly (replaces 50mm slanted top toothpicks) - Ultralight & compact fire starter perfect for EDC (Every Day Carry) use ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B08YJSH185 | | ASIN | B08YJSH185 | | Brand Name | Tortoise Gear | | Color | Neon Green-glow | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars (364) | | Customer reviews | 4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars (364) | | Date First Available | 15 March 2021 | | Department | Unisex | | Drive System | Insertion | | Folded Size | Extremely small | | Included Components | Fire Starter, Knife | | Item Weight | 1.6 Grams | | Manufacturer | Tortoise Gear | | Manufacturer | Tortoise Gear | | Material Type | Ferrocerium | | Number of Pieces | 3 | | Package Dimensions | 12.9 x 8.79 x 0.71 cm; 1.6 g | | UPC | 850029353003 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Tortoise Gear - **Colour:** Neon Green-glow - **Included components:** Fire Starter, Knife - **Item weight:** 1.6 Grams - **Material:** Ferrocerium ## Images ![Firefly Regular 3 Pack - Fire Starter Accessory for Swiss Army Victorinox Knives (Neon Green-Yellow Glow) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71jMWJuhqzL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by J***L on 16 July 2023* This is a perfect way to add a Ferro rod to your Swiss army knife.

I would not use it regularly because it is brittle but definitely happy with it over a tooth pick. You have to hold it and strike it properly per the instructions or it will break. I broke one of three and that was my fault but I still made a fire using the broken piece.

I removed the toothpick and replaced it with this fire starter. Fits perfect with my Victorinox Woodsmans and pocket knife. Easy to use. Thin side up. Practice with it before you really have to use it. I like the neon green color. ## Frequently Bought Together - Firefly Regular 3 Pack - Fire Starter Accessory for Swiss Army Victorinox Knives (Neon Green-Yellow Glow) - Tortoise Gear Helix Tinder for FireAnt and Firefly Fire Starters - Tinder for Victorinox Swiss Army Knife Corkscrew - FireAnt 3 Pack - Fire Starter and Tinder System for Swiss Army Victorinox Knives (Green Glow) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/491592475-firefly-regular-3-pack-fire-starter-accessory-for-swiss-army](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/491592475-firefly-regular-3-pack-fire-starter-accessory-for-swiss-army) --- *Product available on Desertcart Great Britain* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
