Dry sticks are the result of using broken glass on damp sticks. They are used in the Sea Slug quest to light a torch on the Fishing Platform. They can be kept after the quest, and with 30 Firemaking can be used at any time to light a torch by selecting the "rub-together" option. Unlike a tinderbox, clicking to use the sticks on an unlit torch has no effect.
