How many strikes is this rated up to?

This is a very large rod comparing with others. The diameter is 1/2 inch. It's 6 inch long. As you can see, LMF's firesteel 2.0 fire starter(3/8" x 3 3/4") Lasts 12,000 strikes. The volume of this rod is almost 3 times of the LMF's firesteel 2.0 fire starter. So in the same condition, the rod lasts about 36,000 strikes.

How is the quality on these? Do they give out good sparks?

This things throws a shower of sparks. Used this during a 8 day camping trip with no matches or lighter to start all our fires. Never had any issues starting any and definitely recommend getting this one. It’s nice that it has the striker hooked on to it so they don’t get separated but if so a good quality high carbon knife works well too.

How does it perform compared to the smaller (3.14 inch length)Bayite Ferrocerium Ferro Rod pack of 3 ???

The smallest Bayite Rod I've used is the 4"x3/8" and it produced about 50% of the sparks of the larger rods. In a pinch, the extra $5 for the 5" or 6"X1/2" unit is probably the best $5 I'll ever spend. It's also the reason I hunt with a 12 gauge instead of a .410.
