Took the WSK out today and gathered some Fatwood and Pine Pitch to make some fire-starters.

Splitting fatwood is no problem for this beast of a knife, a little extra blade length would have been nice but I still managed to get more than enough fatwood for what I needed...

That's two decent sized bits for my needs...

Once home I filled a section of an egg box with the pitch mixture and made some fatwood shavings with the WSK...

Topped it off with the shavings and I had my completed fire-starter !
