Yip I was going on about the stick only version. R93 I was tossing up which one to get and settled on the stick.Like you say,the other you shave of the stuff into a small heap as such then using the other side,strike up a spark onto the fine shavings.I'm sure the stick on its own would last longer.great wee toy.
