anyone have any "strike anywhere" matches

They don't sell them in the stores around here in SW Pa. At least i have not been able to find any. I sort of got used to them. Name brands are Diamond or Ohio Blue Tip. They have to be "strike anywhere" though. It will say that on the match box. They are good to have in a golf bag. I keep them in a 35mm film cannister. No need to worry about the striking paper getting damp like regular matches while i'm golfing in the rain. They are easy to have with you and they great on hiking trips and camping.
I am looking to get whatever i can at a reasonably inexpensive price.

I don't have heatware but my feedback on eBay is under silysavg

Lighters work good. Keep a Zippo handy. The cover them protects against accidental ignition.

Well to tell the truth, I never looked. I always bought a good ol' lighter
Guess I'll have to have a look when I go to Wally World

Curious now

I used to buy them at the grocery store. haven't looked for them in year's.


probably find them at an outdoor's/camping store. (I would imagine they would cost more there.)

They seem to be getting harder and harder to find now a days. I usually find them at hardware stores (Coast-to-Coast, Hardware Hank, Ace, etc.).

I always have some in my trucks toolbox, my "Jump Bag", my hunting gear, and the garage. I quit using "Zippo's" after I needed one and the fuel had all evaporated. The disposible lighters just don't seem to work when you need them either.

Harder

Plenty of em' here! (I think) I'll check on base for ya.
I always loved that terribly strong sulphur smell they put off. I remember lighting them off of my teeth as a [younger] kid.

They are Hazard Class 4.1 flammable solids and are forbidden on commercial and cargo aircraft. You can find them at camping/sporting goods stores.
