    When teaching my daughter to use her fero rod, I had to get her to do it the way that you did in order for her to have enough strength to make it spark. Thanks for sharing your wisdom!

      I have a fair amount of strength but use this often when my tinder is damp or wet. It allows me to put a lot of hot sparks into the tinder

    I have found the Hogue EX FO1 7" knife to be somewhat of a a modern day copy of this knife!

    I like the alternate way to make feather sticks. Will teach my grandsons that one. I believe it’s a tad safer. Not really a big fan of feather sticks as I have taught them to gather small dry twigs mostly but it’s another tool in the box. Thank you

      I do the same thing my friend. Feather sticks are part of the online culture of bushcraft and survival. But I rarely have the need to make them. I like showing people who like to do them alternate ways for them to play with.

    Excellent tips here, Craig! I've never seen anyone secure the blade into a piece of wood for safer bark scraping...That's really smart. I'll have to start using that technique now.

      I see nothing funny about cutting bacon up being funny. Priorities are priorities

    That was a terrific use of a long knife outside the box. I have a long knife and a Kephart 5in that i carry EDC and I've begun using it in ways similarly. Now I have a new outlook on my long knife. Even better as a team .

      Heck yeah, I like sharing different things and putting them out there so people can take what they like and make it their own and discard the things they dont care for. I am glad this proved to be helpful to you

    Awesome! Thanks for posting. Very useful tips and tricks. I'm visiting LT's ship next week, so I may end up leaving with a blade... or two. 😁

    Great tips! I love the way you designed that knife. I think that would be my perfect survival knife! Just a bit out of my price range right now. Maybe some day😀 What would you think about making one with the same design but with cheaper But still quality carbon steel and materials At a more affordable price range for the common man. Of course I realize that knife is worth every penny in quality, there’s just a lot of knives out there that are decent quality steel at a reasonable price but are just not designed for the kind of things we do in Bushcraft and survival For example most knives don’t have a 90° spine, or have some kind of ridiculous jimping on the back that has no practical use, or they’re just way too thick to be any good at doing fine whittling or meat processing.

    Great tips! How do you keep that 90 degree angle on the top of the knife for fire striking?

    • @NatureReliance
      @NatureReliance  2 года назад +1

      This knife is fairly new so it came from LT Wright Knives that way. However the knife I normally carry and use gets dull often. For the spine I use a sharpening puck, typically used on axes, to get it back to a sharp spine, then strop it with leather.

    Am I the only one who thinks that method for scraping seemed more dangerous…
