These 11″ extra length, heavy duty safety matches are perfect for reaching kindling in wood piles without burning fingers. They are ideal for various uses beyond candles, such as camping, backpacking, campfires, grills, furnaces, stoves, and fireworks. These strike-on-box matches are safe for hiking or backpacking as they won’t self-ignite or ignite in the box. Moreover, they are eco-friendly as the entire box can be disposed of in the fire without any plastic wrapping, unlike traditional fire lighters.
