Yeah, pretty much any store with a camping department should have them...
And they all pretty much look the same, a rod with a gear on the end with an attached piece of flint on the end of a spaller rod with a spring inside. get the colman, it works great...

*Incase my last message was missunderstood:
I didn't break it because of frank, it was before I started posting, I mean I broke it cause I didn't know what to do.
