ABSTRACT:
A match holder provides an extension to a stick match so that a fire can be lit in combustion equipment having a relatively inaccessible combustion chamber such as in a wood burning stove, oil stove or water heater. The match holder includes an elongated member, preferably made of wood, having a handle section proximate one end and a bore at another end. The bore is adapted for receiving an end portion of the stick match and for frictionally holding the match while the fire is being lit. A match ejector is positioned within a slot that is disposed behind the bore and communicates with the bore. The ejector is slidable between an ejecting position and a non-ejecting position within the slot. In the ejecting position, the ejector extends into the bore to engage the end of the match and eject the match from the bore. Tabs for manual movement of the ejector are fixedly attached to the ejector and extend outwardly from the slot.
