FATWOOD is a great resource for fire building. When we harvest it in the wild it is best to keep it in large blocks for storage until use. The process of the fatwood drying out over time and decrease its ability to catch fire quickly

Blackie, I ordered 2 cases of fatwood from Home Depot. I store the sticks in a plastic airtight container. I took 4 freezer bags and I put 5 sticks each in each baq. One bag for my EDC carry, one in my BOB, one in my cooking bag and one bag in my alternate pack. EASY FIRE EVERYWHERE RAIN OR SHINE. The rest is storage . Thanks for the Vid. Fire is life.

I always learn something new here! Thanks for mentioning the sawdust method for flint and steel use. I'm tucking that right in under my trail hat for future use, sir! Stay safe out there and God Bless

Good video. Fat-wood, fat-lighter has a long shelf life. This video sparked a memory of a hunk of fat-wood a friend gave me in the early 1980’s, I checked it and it still has that rich color and strong smell. I did a quick test and it lit like a champ. Thanks again.

Good Job Blackie! Love the smell of that lighter pine! New trick for me on the dust. Great for demo! Have a good Thanksgiving and ATB!

this is a great video about fatwood my man. I've learned about it about a year ago and have been crazy for it every since. Even sand it down to 2500 grit and make pieces to leave around the house. But I love it, and great advice to tell beginners to leave it mostly whole. It can dry out. Great vid. Love your life, and buy ammo and arrows!
