Some backyard bushcraft today with my new Lionsteel T6. Fire-practice, made a nice featherstick Make an ember from charcloth with some flint and steel Got it glowing Put it inside the curls and blow And we have flames
A little bit of campfire cooking (in heavy winds) ... Cut a long log to fire-pit sized logs with the silky Then split to different sizes with the Lionsteel Experimenting with a top down fire for a fire that need little to no maintanance during the cooking See the wind playing with the flames But the fire grew big enough to withstand the winds quickly Food tossed on the grill, also put the kettle on for coffee after dinner Wind blew alot of the heat away so it took a bit of patience to get all the food ready So it was a nice meal, fun to make, but no place to hide from the wind made us eat quickly and we didn't enjoy the fire for much longer after dinner.
Campfire time!!! Silky Accel was used for some nice sized logs Split down further with the Lionsteel T6 Stacked up from big to small diameter for a top down fire And we have flames Yay!
My EDC fire and defence. SOCP clone, severe neuropathy, cant deploy a folder fast enough. Kershaw Folder for cutting. I made a paracord bracelet with 3.5 ft of paracord and 3.5 ft Fire Cord. Can make a bow drill for fire if needed. Key chain- Magnesium rod Nite Eyes Dohic-key Boy Scout Ferro rod Carbon steel striker (hacksaw blade) Cuff key (I got security guys doing double takes, LOL)
I finally found a flint and steel at a museum for sale and bought one. It's something I've always wanted to learn, and I'm pretty excited. I've put a small "tackle box" together to start All I need is some practice flint, antler and find flaking stones to keep edges sharp. I've been watching YouTube about it, especially Coalcracker and will have fun experimenting.
Actually, I upgraded with more options Picked up new tin that fits in the molly pouch, Openal folder, lamp wick as char, char cloth, denim to char, antler to sharpen flint, and twine for tinder.
Was out camping last week. Time for a nice fire at the end of the day gathered some pieces of dry wood, my Opinel #12 saw helped out Then split it in different sized for a top down fire with the Lionsteel T6 This knife is a joy not only to see, but also in ergonomics, and use My stacked firewood, big at the bottom, small at the top Lighting it at the top And enjoy a maintenance free fire
Organic free range fire starters I made, pitch wrapped in birch bark. One hand fire practice. Wet weather fire. Rock, Knife, Steel Wool and Tampon Fire.
Firepractice with the Lionsteel T6 First up, some shavings and a featherstick. Then 2 different methods of fire starting First I used the 90 degree pommel on the T6 to scrape my ferrocerium rod for sparks on my shavings. Next up, flint ‘n steel with some charcloth, pushed it in the featherstick and blown into flames
