    The Flint and Steel Technique is very easy with a sharp piece of Flint, Chert, or Quartz. The problem is, that their perimeters dull very quickly. Yes, it’s true, you could flake sharpen those edges with an antler or smash the Flint into smaller sharp pieces. But, don’t overlook those existing very sharp interior edges and ledges.

    Thanks, David. We always learn something new from your videos. Where I live (northwest corner of Argentina), the most common type of rock is quartz. And when you use it a few times, it almost immediately goes dull. This is an excellent idea to make the most of every piece of quartz. God bless.

      Our Quartz is grainy and breaks away easily but continually leaves behind good sharp edges.

    SC we have ignition.
    The garage darkness really shows just how much spark you are able to get with your technique.

    Can you give out your email? I would like to send you some pictures of the process I use for making char cloth that always makes it soft, supple, and smoke free. I have been watching your videos for years and decided to try some experiments.

      @@DavidWestBgood2ppl oK. I will just try to explain what I do. I have a larger outer tin and smaller inner tin. I put the buffer material to protect from the heat in the bottom of the larger container. I use cotton duck canvas but punk wood will also work. I the put several large vent holes in the lid of the larger container for the smoke exhaust. This greatly reduces the smoke residue. I then put my cloth in the smaller container which also has a large vent hole. I place the small container inside the large and place the buffer material around the sides. Place in the fire and proceed as normal. I try to keep the tins as flat as possible but it is not really necessary. Hope this helps.

      When I remove from the flame I put a paver or piece of wood on top to prevent air flow into the tins.
