Dave what you said about the part of the blade near the handle being what most use for fine carving tasks is the biggest reasons I HATE partially serrated blades. That is the exact spot most cutlery companys put the serrations.
I've never even thought about using the stone like that! i always learn something new! thanks for your videos!
A broken piece of ceramic rod is capable as a flint, as well, on the broken end. I have used that quite a bit to light charcloth. Also on an off note, I carry a five inch piece of an old anode rod from a water heater. They are made of pure magnesium, usually, and are very light weight. I rarely use it, but instead of using up my fero rods in harsh conditions to make shavings, I just scrape off the anode rod. Just a bit of a weird learning tip. Much purer magnesium than most don bars.
I never thought about using the sharpening stone to start a fire, thanks Dave!
Dual survival was never the same without you!
Dave is my spirit animal.
I love these videos! You are such a good teacher - no bs just the skills and reasoning!
Nope, it honestly never occurred to me that a sharpening stone would throw sparks. One of the things that I love about your videos are the solutions that were staring us in the face.
Thanks Dave. Never thought about using that exposed tang for scraping... awesome!
Always fascinating the techniques he teaches. Especially his knife skills and fire starting.
Absolutely AWESOME information here! Thanks for posting this one.... keep'em coming Sir!
Wow Dave! How did I not think of the hard Arkansas stone to spark fire? It's the next logical step, but although I should've thought of it, I didn't. Thanks for helping us connect the dots. :)
I've always wondered why more people don't realize the sharp edged spine of a knife or machete makes a great shaver for fine tinder. Dry bamboo works great if you have a source, and makes a bundle almost as fine as roughed (rolled between the palms) cedar bark, my all time favorite tinder.
Great video, learned a couple new tricks. Thanks Dave!
Watching your videos helps keep me experimenting in the woods. Thanks and God Bless.
hear you Dave, I do the same thing. each of my bags, and I have a few, has a wet stone. even my EDC pouch has a ,Lansky, in it. had not thought about using the stone as a striker though. Thanks and prayers
Great video Dave keep up the good work, your videos have inspired me a lot over the years
All the best
Moras truly are little workhorses. I carry one in each of my bugout bags as a back up knife for emergency situations or for meal prep / carving around the campfire. My PLSK-1 is always on my hip when I'm planning an outing though!
I love your fantastic skills!!! Thanks Dave, for everything you make for us... Saluti dall'Italia....
Great video Dave. Thanks a lot
Good stuff, especially using a sharpening stone to produce sparks.
Thanks
Very good! Thx for showing!
Very entertaining and full of knowledge as always Dave keep it up buddy love your work.
Another great video thanks Dave!
Good stuff Dave! Great tidbits to expand ones options. God bless!!
great video Dave, thanks.
A high carbon Shefield knife honing steel gives off great sparks as well when struck with a sharp flint
Great trick and tip on sparking the knife and sharpening stone there dave. Great looking camp too. Many thanks. Regards shane.
thanks again for your time and knowledge
Dave is King! Thanks man.
I appreciate the knowledge you give out
Another great presentation Dave... Things like this is why I subbed
This I would never have thought about. Great video.
I always learn something from you. Your a wealth of information. Glad you started doing these videos.
Thanks for the valuable tips !
I find this trick works extremely well for starting a fire. its a bit heavy and unweildy but bringing a flamethrower into the woods its a great source of campfires.
PS. love your work Dave, 21st century longhunting is exactly what I needed
If you see someone scraping a firesteel with their cutting edge, take their knife away, they don't deserve it😂. Awesome tips and tricks Dave
A buddy of mine blundered into that sharpening stone x blade method while using a stone to make a 90 degree spine on his Tramontina machete.
Since then, scraping the spine of the machete has become the favorite fire starting method In group.
Great video! Love all your videos!!
I absolutely agree. I grind a 90 degree spine onto every fixed or locking blade I own.
dave is a REAL pro, he makes this look easy
Great video as ever !
Thanks buddy!
Great video. Thxs
Great stuff
great video. No I never thought about the first tip of the sharpening stone. good info
Thank You .
Another Zen moment ! Good stuff .
nice very cool Dave
Good to see Rufus making his star studded appearance haha
Love ya Dave
Thank you sir appreciate you explanation and expertise!
I have never learned more from any other bushcrafter/survivalist than from you Dave! Still miss you and Cody on DS. I would very much like to join to FaceBook group to keep up with everything your doing if you'd allow me and possibly message me the link, or comment it if you dont mind. Thanks & God bless brother!
Great Video as always Dave, We thank you brother... Really missing the camp cooking and cooking in general videos..Any thoughts on when your going to do some more cooking over the fire in the field?
Thank you very good tips
Another Cowabunga tips.! Cheers for sharing mate.
thats super info!!! thanx and as allways your on top !!
Very slick!
Thanks David. I'd never thought of the potential to use a pocket stone as a flint.
I went to your website to look for the sharpening store you described in this video. I could not find one with the description you gave in the video. Pictures of those on the website were not detailed enough for me to identify the beveled edges, fishing hook groove or rounded sharpening edge for hook knives. Could you please provide a link? Thanks! This stone would make a great gift for my husband and son!
I always have a wet stone in my pack and would never have thought to use it to create sparks off my knife. Great video Dave
Awesome trick!!!
Good tips and tricks! Thanx a lot :-)
Very good. Thank you very much
Whetstone? Great idea! I would have never thought of that one and probably would've froze if I was in the situation to use it.
Good tips (as always!)
Thank you for the tips and tricks. Where can I get that sharpening stone with the different edges? Couldn't find it on your websites.
great video.
Outstanding
Well you made my day David
Didn’t know that using a sharpening stone can like a fire. 👌🇬🇧
That whetstone trick is awesome! Seems so logical when you explain it. Never would have thought of it tho
dave i just want to say you are an inspirational teacher i use to watch duel survival when you were on it and when you left i quit watching it then i found this channel a few years ago and have been watching it ever since i just want to say keep up the amazing work youve taught me alot and thank you for your time in putting these videos together if you ever find yourself in michigan look me up ill cook you some bbq venison
well so much for buying a DC4 sharpener... as usual, thank you very much for your bushcraft wisdom dave! :)
alzathoth get the cc4
dave you are the best :D enyoing all your videos
The newest from Wazoo has all the features of yours and it’s smaller than the one you’re wearing. Always great content Dave.
Dave, have you ever explored starting a fire with a magnet and a coil of wire? never runs out...
good tips
Great stuff, Dave. Any reason why you don't pound the poplar or cedar bark, always found that to be quicker and better at making fines. Just a thought.
Say Heah Dave, Thanx You.,,.
Effing brilliant!
HI Dave, do you plan to write any more books? I have all of them so far and find them by far, the most informative, no nonsense survival book's on the market. keep up the good work brother.
Dave you are a rad dude!Thanks for all your hard work.How do you or anybody out there into survival feel about the french OPINAL knife?Im stoked on my N°9,Thanks again
Thanks Men.:-)
Very intuitive Dave, Thanks :) I have found that after making a few knives, i like to use Windex or something similar that is water based to spray onto my stones, and it seems to lift the metal dust out of the stones very well.
With the knife of that size i use the tip and the curve most. In fact i rarely use the first two cm of the blade.
can you do a vid on rock slings..love the vids thanks.
Yes! I second that!
Sweet deal man. Good ideas.
Great video. Lots of really helpful stuff packed in here.
Excellent video to reiterate the basics...anyone know if there is a video on that log tripod in the background? I vaguely remember one...
Hi Dave I am an ex UK paratrooper and extensively trained in jungle and e+e I Never thought about using the back of the blade to get the fine shavings every day is a lesson 👍 great work mate
350th view!
Thanks for the video dave
Hey Dave I don't see that stone on your site. The one with multiple angles. Where can I get one?
Thank you for the tips! If you were to use water on a stone in the winter and it were to freeze, would that ruin the stone? Also, if even sharpening stones can be used with the knife like flint and steel, then would glass work too?
Quarts is a hard stone it is white in color easily found !
never thought about the sharpening stone trick, cheers Dave
Where did you get that pendant stone?
Thanks Dave, the stone idea is something I will definitely try. In your opinion, what is the best way to engineer a sharp spine on a blade that doesn't damage the integrity of the steel? Maybe something you can use for high carbon and stainless.
Hey Dave i live pretty close to you an was wondering where you buy your smithing coal I can't find good coal anywhere in southern Ohio
How do you store all the homesteading, bush craft, hunt , fish, 10 C's of survival tools that you own? Do you have an equipment storage room with containers of different fire starting tools, knives, cook ware, hunt and fish tools etc.How do you organize and catoragize all of the different equipment that you own?My garage is over flowing! lol
Dave, didn't you used to carry a diamond rod? Love your videos, just wondering if that is still a reliable option.
