Here are 10 bushcraft firesteel skills and tips in 10 minutes. The firesteel is easily in my top 5 most used bushcraft items in my pack. It can light fire in heavy rain and soaking wet conditions, it's durable and compact and I can get thousands of fires lit from it. Over the years I have learned different ways of using them, which have helped to make fire lighting much easier.

Great informative video. Just one point of information, to help beginners and those who are in the environments of damp climates, marsh or fresh/seawater. In addition to waxing the ferrocerium rod you can simply apply a liberal coating of Vaseline, or something similar. Works great if you are a fisherman, kayaker or canoeist, always do this when you return home or get back to your base. Keep up the great videos.

firesteel are the perfect example of the genius of marketers: selling prehistoric things to modern men while lighters ( i am thinking about zippo) are the real, useful, perfect way to start a fire in emergency events. as a marketing student, i appreciate this genius. this is a classic case study

I see most of your demonstratations show both the knife and steel in the air, meaning, not braced against a surface. Wouldn't leveraging against a surface provide better scrapping?

Already 30secs in, not using ur blade to use ur firesteel. Much love. I see SO many people using the actual blade and i cringe every time. No respect for your tools.

TA Outdoors I have been watching your videos for a long time. and bc of them I have started a ww2 fox hole and made a camp. so thanks for giving me all the ideas.

Some addition tip, maybe. You cant ditch the scraper and change it to piece of a hacksaw blade. Don't use paint covered though. GL and good trips!

Question: In the absence of wax to keep the rod from rusting could you use mineral oil like i do for my high carbon knife or whet stone?
