Abstract

A survival belt buckle configured to be worn around the user's waist that may make a fire under different environmental conditions. The belt buckle includes a rigid body made of high carbon steel. The body includes a plurality of striking points that when stuck against a flint, chert rock, or quartz produces a spark to ignite dry tinder or other combustible material. On a perimeter edge of the body is a ferrocerium rod that can be used with a steel knife or stone to produce spark. Also, on a perimeter edge of the body is a magnesium bar that produces small shavings that can be ignited. Also, in the rigid body is a magnifying lens used to ignite tinder with sun rays. The belt buckle is waterproof, easily transported and can be use with a knife, hard stone, other metal pieces, or with similar belt buckles worn by others.
