A flame retardant work rag used to tend to a fire, grasp hot equipment or recently fired barrel/suppressor, shield from flames, soak up a grease spill, shield during a parry from blade based attacks, etc. Works great as a fireproof mat to get your tinder bundle lit then transfered to kindling. Equipped with grommet for attaching to lanyard, key ring, etc. Built and crafted with 2 layers of *Kevlar, Nomex, or Aramid/Viscose fabric and stitched together with Aramid/Gutermann thread.

While cloth is near impossible to burn or ignite, heat is easily transferred thru material and can burn hands if exposed to prolong heat while grasping. *Kevlar is the primary fabric used in our camp rags but Nomex (up to 700°f with varying ANSI ratings) and generic aramid/viscose fabric may be used in some variants. TIPS: Place Camp Rag atop a pot or mug of coffee while heating on an open flame to block ashes and debris. Use as a barrel/suppressor wrap to protect from burns. Use Kevlar Lanyard to secure cover. Cover an hot engine block while making mechanical adjustments under the hood. Tend to a campfire and arrange logs and kindling. Parry a blade based attack while protecting from offensive cuts. Use as a pad/mat to lay out small disassembled parts while cleaning. Improvise as an​ oven mitt. Use bungee cord to make a hook for hanging mitt by oven. CARE + MAINTENANCE: Wash this Hank anyway you want. It's durable. Throw in the machine wash, dry in the dryer, or clean by hand. Use any detergent. Just steer clear of bleach.
