52FF Week 40 - 1 Strike Fire Challenge with Red Oak
Recently Justin Wolfe from Greirwolfe on YouTube issued a 1 strike fire challenge out of your comfort zone. Mike Travis stepped up to the plate with Red Oak and he inspired me to do the same as my previous experience with red oak has been that it is somewhat difficult. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lTtGX38YIC4

A good friend of mine, Gary Lawson, thought of my kids on Christmas. What did he do? He made 4 homemade PVC blow guns and sent them with a package of marshmallows and darts for my kids to play with. Yeah....I had a bucket load of fun with them too. Thanks Gary!!

In this Gauntlet Review of the Condor Woodlaw, we test out the blade by creating a working hand drill set, making a ferro rod fire with feathers and shavings, and carving out a primitive figure four trap. Thanks for joining me and I hope you enjoy and find it helpful.

Between the blade profile and geometry and the handle design, this knife puts the "craft" in bushcraft. The handle easily allows for multiple handle positions with no hot spots or hand fatigue while providing for a lot of control. For those who are a fan of the Pukko style Bushcraft blades, I highly recommend this knife.

Just a quick sneak peak into an upcoming video for Larry Roberts. I jarred the hearth board on a bow drill and which inadvertently kicked a coal out. I continued assuming it would go out...Much to my surprise, it didn't.
That is a red oak spindle on a pecan hearth board.

The Bark River Squad leader is a more tactical flavored Bravo design with a pronounced swedge for extreme tip strength and penetration. The A2 blade is a bit taller giving it more heft with still a great balance. And the pronounced pommel works well for both a lanyard and for grinding and pounding tasks. Even with the more tactical focus, this blade still shines at bushcraft like the others in the Bravo Series.

This is the new X-Case for the Nano stove from Firebox Stoves; it is cooking up some Boneless Pork Ribs and Roasted Cauliflower. It is a case with an optional windscreen for their Nano stoves (works with both stainless and Ti Nano's). The case acts as a base/coal catch for the Nano when opened up and laid flat. The Built-in "X" slots work to hold the feet of the Nano securely in place as well.
