@teb0atoz I agree. And I’m not saying you can’t, although, I would not recommend it to a beginner. Safety is and should always be the number 1 priority in a self reliance situation.

Just a couple of questions 1) you said a RC of > 7. But the idea of using a piece of flint/chert is to shave off small peices of Iron from the high carbon steel blade/material. So I was not sure about this as I had never heard it put that way.
2) Friction methods seem a lot simpler.
But good video and tanacity.
cheers

@pranachimana Well obsidian is totally differant then flint/chert etc….. So yes you can do what he was doing but it would be better to use a pants leg etc… to hold the material.

Greetings Dave,
Speaking of tools: In a one-item configuration, dont you think a knife -even a good one- is sufficient?
My tool of choice would be an Ontario SP8 “machette”. Did you ever test it? Only one mod i do is to make the 7 first centimeters of the blade (at the hand side) sharp as a razor and it is good to go.
It has ability to chop, cut, saw, dig, chisel, pry, hammerize… things easily. It’s virtually indestructible; for a fair weigh, price and encombrement.

Hey Dave, I too live in SE Ohio. I’m having a hard time finding flint and was wondering if you, or anyone on here could give me some clues as to what to look for.

Oh missed that part. ty

@68wagoneer Probably, but he was trying to use one tool (Pathfinder Knife) the whole time just to show that it can be done.
July 18th, 2010 at 1:18 pm
true, but its also a good war to dull ur blade -.^

Good video Dave

On a warm sunny day like that, couldn’t a small magnifying glass be used to start the charcoal?
July 18th, 2010 at 3:39 pm
your lucky, we nearly have no flint or chert in my area and low quality quartz, barely good enough for points, let alone sparking.
July 18th, 2010 at 4:37 pm
i was looking at the knives on your website and i was wonder if you could tell me the length of the blade on the mora sl2? great video
July 18th, 2010 at 5:36 pm
hey good job a tip: put the knife in the ground. that way it wont knock about the charcoal. Great vids
July 18th, 2010 at 6:26 pm
This is a great series of videos. Thanks!
July 18th, 2010 at 6:40 pm
Dave , the end of this vid is my favorite one…why???? cuz it took the spirit of the natives and your respect for them….

Nice artifact by the way, did you keep it?
July 18th, 2010 at 7:20 pm
Learned another trick, thanks Dave. I learn something from every video you upload.
July 18th, 2010 at 8:16 pm
That artifact is freaking awsome
July 18th, 2010 at 8:40 pm
lol what?
July 18th, 2010 at 8:57 pm
cool..it was really cool thinking that an indian used that piece of flint to make a an arrow head to hunt with…
July 18th, 2010 at 9:31 pm
Perhaps, but since a spark seems to catch best on the end grain, I figure, if its ground up, there would be tons of end grain to catch the spark?
July 18th, 2010 at 9:57 pm
Nah! I really meant it. Ya think my eyes are too old to fake? What i’m watching is justa lookin’ tough guy who is belong to the wrong side on men blowing a tiny straw tring to start a “already ignited charcoal” Am I Right? Soldier! NOW! GET DOWN! GIVE A FIFTY! NO! YOU! SAY! SIR! YES! SIR! SOLDIER!
WHO TOLD YOU TO BE A FAKE MAN! They ain’t belong to the U! S! A! Military! AM I RIGHT? YOU SAY! YES! YES! SIR ! Soldier!

Well done for persevering & getting it Dave. It’s tricky work that, thanks for showing that it takes many attempts, lets people know its not easy and they shouldn’t expect it to happen straight away. 5/5
