You have singlehandly shamed thousands of the old school bushcrafters. Lol. This is awesome knowledge!

Oh my god this is amazing! You have demonstrated many examples of no char flint and steel tinders that are common in my area of the world, so thanks for making such an informative video!

Pretty sure I got hedge nettle and broad leaf dock. Stingong nettle, mugwort and great burdock for sure !

I'm amazed that this channel doesn't have more subscribers I really hope you keep making videos

Great video thanks for sharing!

All summer long, stinging nettle has performed for me! Nothing with burdock, not sure if we have mugwort here in Indiana. Will keep trying, though! Thanks for sharing, Steve

Wow, I just found your channel and y'all have a new follower. I've attended some bushcraft courses and was taught the "char cloth for your next fire mentality" but what you guys are teaching is TOP NOTCH BUSHCRAFT. Now I just have to binge watch and download your episodes. Thanks for the AWESOME information.

I wonder how many of these materials would work with a fire piston.
