Dude I too am a Swiss Army knife and fatwood nut. Great video

I was just "playing" with some fatwood yesterday that I had in my garage. You are soooo right when talking about using it. You can feather it, light it with a fired source, but it would seem the most enjoyable easiest way is simply scrapping it down into a pile, spark it, and watch it burn. I will have to try that stand up and fill with scrappings when everything is wet. It looks like a great way to get wet tinder dried out enough to burn and ignite the twigs etc. thanks for another great video demonstration

excellent demo. specially the second one....thanks for the info

Very nice video. I learn something every time I watch you Dave.

In Florida we always called it lighter knot

That was very helpful ,thanks

Absolutely Awesome work. I did my scrapings with the saw blade spine of my leatherman. I was using scrapings prior, however with my knife blade edge, witch actually made a dust that was too fine. The saw blade was the perfect detail I just discovered because of this video. Thanks & much respect! Keep up the great work 🌲🔥🗡🤠👍🇺🇸

Oh happy day to you my dear friend. There is nothing better than some good old fatwood bacon. Thank you for sharing another outstanding video. Looking forward to seeing your next video stay safe and burn on

I just picked up the Stanley 10-049! I was also happy to see you using the saw from the SAK. I have an ALOX Farmer model that I’m very fond of.

In the rain. Amazing.. very useful . Thank you Mr. David.

I like that you demonstrated this. Interesting technique of making small holes in the log to stick upright pieces. Still have a fireban in effect here, hoping it will lift soon enough. Have a great week and God bless.

@@DavidWestBgood2ppl ok did what you said hope that works

I bought my victorinox when I wasn't interested in bushcraft fire starting. So I chose to have S14 model. It has a nice locking blade, scissors and everything but a SAW. It was the biggest mistake of my life so far. Maybe I can just grind backs of my other folding knives, benchmade, spyderco, fallkniven etc. Oh, recently I bought Speedy Sharp carbide sharpener to use as a striker and it gives me sparks like hellfire. It seems it is better than anything else. You may already know it but I just wanted to comment. So according to your video, it seems scraping gives you good dry tinders when it's raining. I will remember this. As always, thank you so much for the lesson, sir.

Mr. West ➡, have you found shavings of fatwood be fairly reliable as a fire starter, even when being actively rained upon, like in your video?🤔🤔 Thank you for posting this information as I am new to Buschcraft!😁

At 1.33min that little waffler looks like some nice dry aged ny sirloin. So that's a perfect level of goodness haha

Where did you find all of the fat wood ?? I'd like to get some.

Does fatwood explode during bushfires mate. I imagine it burns hot and fierce, but being so flammable, it must really flare up in a hurry. Thanks for the vid, really informative. Steven.

@@DavidWestBgood2ppl The power of a forest fire is hard to comprehend. A hot fire can create a mini cyclone that can pull an entire tree out of the ground. Foresters in Northern Ontario were seeing odd circular patches in the ground on air photos - turns out it was trees and/or stumps that had been ripped from the ground by fire.

Do you harvest your own fat wood? If so, the harvesting process might make a good video. Also, could you make a fire starter that would start in moist or damp conditions, and burn for 15 minutes? That would be interesting, and useful Finally, I can highly recommend the Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Car Wash, followed by the Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Spray Coating. Very easy to apply, and phenomenal long lasting protection, and water beading. I purchased at Advance Auto, but available on Amazon, and at Turtle Wax.
