That’s a piston fire starter? Is that what you typically use?

 

Yea it's a fire piston. I use it quite often. It takes some practice to get good at but once you get the hang of it, it's pretty awesome and reliable. Put a little piece of char cloth in the end and give it a good whack. Really helps to lube up the seal with chapstick or something first. Spit works in a pinch as well.

 

Uh oh Duke, it ain't warm like Georgia no more...

My wife went down to her Aunt's house today and left me at home w/ MAXIMUS. I wanted to play w/my new fire kit.


With 3 different fire starting methods in it I had to chose one. These tool sharpeners make sparks easy work off the ferro rods

 

A few from the old school days.

 

Part of life in the north is your beer freezes and you have to start a fire just to thaw it out. only -7 in the mountains today so it was a good day.

 

that's rough'n it right there

 

Beautiful black hawk sir... one of my favorites.

Home alone and nothing to do...I see you make very good use of your time

 

Tony,
I am glad that it seems this lady has found a "Forever Home" where she will be appreciated.

Hasco,
When there is work to be done, an Arete in the hand is a wonderful thing.

I know you’ve heard this line before Bob
“If you ever decide to.....” you get the picture.

 

I’m still trying to figure out this Fotki stuff, so apologies in advance if I mung up the thread, but since VANCE asked for a pic of my Ladyfingers.....
The Ladyfinger fits my hand like no other knife I’ve ever held. Though I love the Old School Ladyfinger (bottom), it feels like the regular Ladyfinger was made for me.
