Does anyone know what kind of matches he use, and where I can buy it?? It is that type that lights on everything, like a wall.. please help me..

I feel a rant coming on!

They're hard to find but you can do a internet search for or call up your local "outdoor" store and ask for... Ohio blue-tips, white-tipped, non-safety, or strike anywhere matches. Strike anywhere will probably get the most recgonition from people.

Here's an online site you can try:

Emergency Resources

Good luck! and welcome to MOL if you stick around.

You can purchase the SAtrike anywhere matches through Amazon. click here for details

I'll be adding them to the store later today

I asked about those matches a couple years back when I was in the US and got told that they are illegal in some (and probably more) states.

I would guess they are quite a safety issue, because they have the potential to light themselves in your pocket... personally I think your better off carrying a mini lighter in your pocket.

Oh man! So much for the rant!

That was very level-headed of you Rocky. Early there?

Yeah I'm ok... just don't mention the National Aquarium!

I carry a small "capsule lighter" in my pocket, the mechanism is the same as on a Zippo lighter (works with gasoline or any flammable liquid can be used in emergency). I used to carry a Zippo, but the fuel evaporated within a few days. This capsule is airtight, so you don't have to refill it if you don't use it. It's made in China, but works good and there is not much that can wrong on this simple design.
Costs $2.22 including shipping worldwide ($1.7 if you buy three).

I have a Zippo lighter with MacGyver on it. I've never liked using matches
