Hey everyone I made this channel so I can share my thoughts on prepping and survival, I also like to do gear reviews please subscribe and drop comments below so we can communicate with each other so we both can learn and grow!
Just a booboo kit! Not a terrible price but wouldn't rely on it for more than cuts and scrapes.

Great tool, but from the looks of it you got a whole lot of wood and not enough fat. That "fatwood" has no resin in it at all. Walmart has good resin filled fatwood for $6 a bag.

Though this stuff is useful.. anybody feel like this is very "tacticool" and just too much for one system? Bulky. Heavy. Uncomfortable. That tiny belt loop to hold all that.. I'm no pro.. I'm jus slayin.. but that shtuff is useful to have for sure

I use the same firestarters that I use for my wood stove all Winter. Made by Rutland--the company that specializes in woodstove products. 24 squares for $10. A third of a square is plenty for most fires. If you are dealing with wet wood--use a whole square.

I realise that some of you guys are in love with the fire starter that you spent money on--but claiming that he wasn't using the correct ferrorod techniques is nonsense! He found out which one was clearly the best! Buy that one!

Blackbeard and Procamptek are the two top dogs. I like Procamptek myself. Also either learn how to strike a ferro rod with a large knife or lose it and get a quality striker. You need more and bigger sparks and you can't be knocking your tinder all over like that in a real situation.

That's a good setup. The BK9 is probably better than an Esee Junglas2 in a situation where you may have to defend yourself because it's a better fighting knife. Maybe you could add a sling to that knife because it might be a bit bulky to carry on your belt and a few drops of oil on those screws in the handle.

Very good knife. And an excellent kit. What’s with all the city slickers suggesting you get rid of the flint and steel?! I’ve been using flint and steel since I was eight years old, that was 1967. It’s my first choice when I’m making fire in the bush. I’ve used it in wet and cold conditions and it has never failed me. I noticed more than one comment that suggest you ditch the F&S for a lighter. Don’t. If you’re having trouble making fire in wet or snowy conditions, you just haven’t done it often enough. Keep some natural jute twine to start your birds nest. It will get easier the more often you do it. The steel will never run out or get used up like a lighter or ferro rod will. In a real survival situation, you need to think long term survival.
@slowwound26568 ай бұрын
You should always carry a bic lighter as well. Even without fuel in it, it will start any of these with just the striker. Dont get me wrong i like my ferro rod. Lighters are just easier, and should always be the first option in an emergency.

Get rid of that big clumsy knife. Get a striker for the ferro rod. Plant that rod at the base and use long frequent strikes and shower it with sparks. Gotta generate heat. It's not the material, but technique. Not blasting u. Good video. Takes practice

I'd say the last two fire starters weren't as advertised. Period. He hit those piles with big sparks. God forbid you were in a real survival situation trying to light it with a spark from two rocks or something. The first product worked fine .

If you follow the directions of Black Beard, it does say to fluff of the rope fibers like you did the Squatch. You also do not need that much. You have a great Ferro Rod and Striker, you should use it. You not getting enough sparks on the products. Black Beard Works, I use it every weekend. Have you tried Black Beards New fire Plugs and Compared it too Production Hangers Fire Plugs? That might be a good video??? Fast Fire Stick by Production Hanger is the same product is everyone's Fire Plugs Good Luck

I've been making my own fire rope and fire starters for quite some time. It's not rocket science and they are all made of the same materials. Some natural fiber, soaked and wax 🤷. Including Blackbeard. It's not like they have some kind of proprietary blend that burns longer or easier than any other. They just recently called me out when I called out with their product is and how easy it is to make. Said that they will send me the retail cost of their plunder kit if I could build an equivalent kit under their retail price. I was able to source the materials for that entire kit for under $20🤣 and that was at retail cost. If I went with wholesale pricing and bulk purchasing I could build a crapload of that kit for under 14 apiece, yet they charge 120 retail 🤔. Not saying that they don't work. But they're WAY overpriced for what it is it's just rope soaked in wax. The actual cost of the rope and wax blend is literally just a couple of cents per stick. Most of the cost of the kit comes from the arc lighter and the Ferro rod which are also able to be sourced cheap. Blackbeard isn't all of that and a bag of chips. They are just another fire starter and all you are paying for is the name. Same difference between Nike and New balance. Same materials you just pay for the damn name and people jump on the bandwagon🤷. Not to mention they're non environmentally friendly wrap that they put around the sticks. People don't often pick up their trash when using stuff like this. At least fast fire uses paperboard.

I think you have too many fire starters, u already have 2 fero rods, the flint and steel takes up too much space. Swap those for a water container like a heavy duty ziplock or aluminum foil in case ur bag gets lost and all u end up with is that knife pack. Also the handle of the Becker is hollow, you can fit a lot of stuff there like fish hooks and fishing line. You can also wrap a few feet of paracord somewhere in your knife pack. Also i think a solar powered hand-cranked combo light would serve better for long term use than battery powered lights.
