Is this product actually made in Germany or is it a Chinese product disguised by a German name?

Chinese disguised as German. It looks nice but don’t be fooled by German name. I can hardly get a spark out of it. Junk.

How long is the actual ferro part of the rod not covered by wood?

Over 2.75" of ferro rod is exposed.

Does the firesteel fit in a standard sheath loop? Thanks.

My personal Zünden fits perfectly in my Morakniv Bushcraft sheath. 5/16" should fit nicely in most sheaths. :) You can even swap out the included cord for some shock cord, to loop-lock the rod in place.

Does this firesteel fit the traditional loop on a sheath? Thank you.

I have the Benchmade 162 Bushcrafter Knife and it fits the loop in the leather sheath perfectly.
