Guitar picks are made of celluloid, which is a combination of nitrocellulose and camphor. They smell good and burn great. Shaved, they light from a spark from a ferro rod as easy as magnesium turnings, if not easier. Magnesium may be just as well there, its a fuel that can get wet and be used immediately, but the guitar picks give a nice flame and an extra few seconds compared to magnesium, just not as blindingly hot.
