A fire starter may include a fire starting mechanism comprising a friction wheel, an axle, a flint, a spring, and a screw. The fire starter also may include a housing and a capsule with a storage compartment therein. The capsule may be attachable to the main housing. The axle may pass through the friction wheel and be screwed or pressed into the housing. Ignition may be created by the spring pressing the flint into the friction wheel, with the screw holding the spring and flint in place such that when the friction wheel is rotated, a spark is generated. The friction wheel may be attached to the housing by the axle at to a single connection point, and the housing may be attached to a tinder removal device, which may be positionable within the storage compartment of the capsule when the housing and the capsule are attached together.
