EmberEdge Ceramic Ferro Rod Striker
The LYNX EmberEdge Ceramic Ferro Rod Striker is built from ultra-hard zirconia ceramic for consistent, high-output spark generation without the wear of traditional steel strikers — it holds a sharp edge over extended use, resisting dulling, corrosion, and degradation in the field. Each one ships with a 95 paracord loop for grip and retention, compact enough for a zipper pull yet large enough to handle with gloves or cold hands.
"A prudent person foresees danger ahead and takes precautions. The simpleton goes blindly on and suffers the consequences. - Proverbs 27:12"

CUSTOM TRAUMA KITS & LOADOUTS
Every loadout treated like it might be used tomorrow — not someday.
LYNX Survival Systems, a Stay Ready Outdoors brand, was created by Charles Quarto after career in uniform, hours on the range, and decades under open skies. The company builds custom trauma kits, go-bags, EDC carry systems, and mission-based gear assemblies — the loadouts aren't designed for catalog photography, they're designed to perform under pressure. Quarto serves law enforcement, military contractors, security teams, and preparedness-minded civilians who'd rather have the right kit than the trendy one.

Answers, straight up.
Product-specific questions on the left. Shopping with SRO on the right. Both open-ended — hit us if we missed one.
Why ceramic instead of steel?
Ceramic will not rust, so it keeps working after a soaking, and it holds a sharp scraping edge longer than a soft steel striker.
Does it come with a ferro rod?
No, this is the striker only. It is meant to replace the sharp-spined steel or knife you would otherwise use on your existing ferro rod.
Why not just use my knife spine?
You can, but it dulls the spine and risks the edge. A dedicated striker keeps your knife out of the job and works even with gloves on.
How long does shipping take?
Most orders process within 1–3 business days from our warehouse. From there: 5–7 business days economy, 2–3 business days expedited, or overnight if you need it fast. Free economy shipping on orders over $150 (contiguous US). Alaska, Hawaii, and Pro Eagle / freight items are quoted at checkout. You’ll get a tracking number and link the moment your order ships.
What’s your return policy?
30 days from the day your order arrives. Gear has to come back unused, with all original tags, stickers, and packaging intact. For standard items we’ll send a prepaid return label and deduct return shipping from your refund. Oversized or freight returns are on you, unless the item showed up damaged, defective, or wrong — in which case we cover it.
Refunds hit your original payment method within 10 business days of approval.
What can’t I return?
Final-sale items, gift cards, food and drink products, personal-care items, anything customized or engraved, briefs (hygiene), and hazardous materials. If you’re not sure whether something qualifies, email us before you order — we’ll tell you straight.
Do you ship outside the contiguous US?
Yes. Alaska, Hawaii, and US territories ship on freight-quoted rates calculated after checkout. International orders are available worldwide at variable rates; duties and import fees are the customer’s responsibility. EU customers get a 14-day cancellation window per EU consumer law, on top of our standard return policy.
My package arrived damaged — what now?
Email info@stayreadyoutdoors.com within 7 days of delivery with your order number and clear photos of the damage (product + packaging). We’ll replace, refund, or ship a return label on us — no back-and-forth. Damaged, defective, or wrong-item claims never cost you shipping.
Can I talk to a human before buying?
Yes. Email info@stayreadyoutdoors.com — we answer every message ourselves, usually within a few hours during business days. We carry this gear, we use this gear, and we’d rather talk you out of a kit that doesn’t fit your mission than sell you the wrong one.
Do you offer a military/first-responder discount?
Yes. Active-duty and veteran military, police, fire, EMS, and medical first responders get 10% off every order. Verify through GovX at checkout — one-time, secure, and reusable across thousands of brands. Discount applies automatically once you’re verified.
