I've had the SS version as well as the titanium nano for several years now. I got the 5" titanium right when it came out. I took it on a 4 night trip through Alagheny and it was perfect. Very light and I could cook a steak on it with minimal wood. I now keep the stainless one in my car. I use it with a trangia burner for car camping. The nano is a permanent fixture in my cook kit. Firebox makes wonderful stoves.
I agree totally. Thanks for watching !
Fantastic review! We are pretty big fans of the Firebox stoves.. they are certainly “leave no trace” not to mention a great survival tool. It doesn’t take a lot of effort to get enough wood to keep it burning for hours. We have been using the Titanium 5” for about 2 years now and it has yet to let us down. Enjoy! Cheers!
That's awesome to hear, I'm loving mine for sure!👍
I think you just became Steve's favourite😉. Well done Wade. A person would not go wrong with either stove...or both
Both gets my vote lol😂
I love my SS version and I never realized how versatile it was until I really made an effort to bring it out more often. It still is super heavy though. Just not sure if I can stomach the price tag for the TI right now. But one day she will be mine. Oh yes, she will be mine. Great vid Wade. 👍👍
My precious😂
Weight Sure Does Make A Difference, Meal Looked Good, Thanks Wade ! ATB T God Bless
Thanks Terry, always good to hear from you bud 🤙
Awesome. Just got both these, looking forward to trying them out.
I think you will be impressed. I just came back from a 5 day canoe trip and brought the Ti Firebox stove with me. 👍
I'll answer before watching LOL - yep - I am in love with this stove. simplicity, diversity, and awesome engineering. I waited until the titanium to buy, since I already owned the nano and was loving it - but now so glad I finally bought G2 TI and won't leave home without it. wood, tangia, solid gel, and gas. adjustability, variety of setup, yep I'm sold.
so now to watch the video hoping you agree(which I'm 99% thinking you will). oh and thanks again for your review on the stainless one. as I commented on that vid, it helped me make the choice of getting the TI one or not. 👍 from me Wade
Thanks for watching Ken! The times I used to take my SS Nano will now be replaced with this Ti G2. It's a great stove!🤙
@@Woodswalker1965 yes my nano will still be used in several situations but the G2 has already slipped into my 'must be with' when out of the city for any reason. It may even take the place of my BioLite 2 setup in some emergency situations even if it can't generate power, especially in a weight/size restricted situation.
I've got one of their 5 inch Titanium stoves and have really enjoyed using it!!
Yummmm. I have both the 5” and the nano in SS. I bought them a few years back and just love them, since I car/tent camp I don’t worry about weight and these things are so well built they’ll probably last a lifetime. I am getting the Scout though, just couldn’t pass out another brilliant design by Steve. That steak looks perfect!
Yes the Scout looks pretty amazing and versatile as well👍Thanks for watching!
Awesome review! Excited to see you put the scout through its paces! Great to see you once again, keep it up!
Agreed. Looking forward to the Scout review too.
Thanks for watching and commenting my friend 👍
Thanks for watching👍
Great review. I have the SS version, just decided I can save weight elsewhere (Ti pot and mug, down quilt) and not pay the extra for it.
Even the SS version is worth carrying!👍 Thanks for watching 👍
I’ve had the Nano for years but just received the SS version of this stove, and the extra grates. Hopefully I’ll get a chance to motorcycle camp and put it to use soon.
Your camera work was awesome with the steak Wade. Great presentation!
Titanium is just super cool isn’t it!😁
Awesome job! Try dry brining the steak one time to up your game considerably. Kosher salt, course black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder. Set overnight in fridge. Cook, enjoy!
I've brined almost everything else except for steak. I'll have to try it, thanks buddy!👍🍻
Hey Wade! As always, another great review on a great stove. FB is my favorite twig stove. I have the Nano and have been waiting for the 5” TT and your review. I’ll pull the trigger on it soon for the fall/winter camping season here in Florida. Thanks my friend!🤠⛺️🔥🥩
Thanks a lot Russ, enjoy that stove!
Great video. I have been thinking of getting a stove like that. Perhaps Santa will remember me this year? :)
Would you like me to send a not so subtle hint to Mrs Kevin Outdoors 😉
Whew, that is one gorgeous steak. Can never go wrong with just a simple seasoned steak.
The people spoke, and I listened, it was a great steak! Thanks for watching!👍
I already have a steel firebox, same as you. I just wish it was lighter. I didn't know if I should get a titanium grill grate, or if the meat would stick. I also didn't know if I could get a good sear on the meat without the heat retention of the steel. I think you did well on both parts, so I'll get the titanium grill grate. Thanks for the great video that answered all my questions!
I’m glad you found it helpful. Thanks for the feedback my friend👍
Great job on cooking that incredibly delicious looking steak. Makes my mouth water watching you cook it. Also thanks for the overview of the FB stove I also follow them on utube.
Thanks for watching my friend 👍
Thanks for the nice vid Wade, I love the Firebox XL Ti a lot, it's insane to what price it sells here in the Netherlands especially but I had to have it 🤪🤣, quality often has no price....🤷♂️🤣
There is a saying in Canada, maybe the same over there. "Buy once, cry once!"😂 Yes it's worth it! Thanks for watching my friend 👍
I don't need the stove but that steak with mushrooms looked awesome.
It was! Thanks for watching my friend 👍🔥
Nice review! I almost snagged a 5” Ti on the latest Kickstarter for $75 but missed out by a matter of seconds. Way she goes sometimes. I’ll be getting the Scout at least. Take care bud.
I'll be interested in what you think about the Scout buddy👍
Wade that was a great looking steak and delicious wild mushrooms as well . Love my titanium FireBox stove . All FireBox products are awesome. You got to try the FireBox coffee. Take care and God Bless.
Thanks Jeff, I might have to try that coffee one day👍
Ok rich guy 🙂
Thank you for your video. Would you mind doing a review of the Kelly Kettle? I have the G2 nano and it is a great system, but the more durable system is the Kelly Kettle In the trekker or scout series. These come in SS or Aluminium. It is for serious explorations in wilderness areas.
Thanks for watching! I did a review on the Ghillie Kettle last winter and I do enjoy using it a lot. You can check it out here if you like. The Ghillie Kettle-An Amazing Piece of Kit!

👍👍🔥🪓😁 mouth watering food again Wade , thanks for the review
You're welcome, thanks for watching my friend 🤙🔥
Hey Wade, great job on that steak! Terrific video.
Hey Gary, take care buddy!🔥
That steak looked amazing 🥩😋👌 thanks again Wade and take care mate 👍🙂
Thanks Mike take care buddy!🤙🔥
😂 the most frequent answer was steak😂 i am not surprised.
I like them both. I am watching a stove called the bushbox xl since a long time. Its very simular to the firefox. There are stainless steel and titanium versions too. I think they are built in Germany. The price always kept me from buying until now. Its expensive in my opinion. But it gives many functional options too. And fun. Hmmm... Maybe one day. Thanks Wade, take care friend
The Bushbox looks great, yes very similar! Thanks for watching buddy, take care 🤙
The bushbox is great engineering too but the window for feeding wood is too small, that's why i like the Firebox XL especially, so easy to feed large pieces of wood
@@jurgenkrebbekx4329 Thanks for the advice.
I alway light mine from the ash pan, give it a try!
Thank for the tip my friend👍
I just received my stainless steel. Can't wait to try it out. I have 4 other wood stoves, so this will be great to test. Nice steak.
Thanks for watching ,let me know how you like the FB!✌️
@@Woodswalker1965 I have a Luxada & a Onetigres. The one thing I notice is it's a pain to put these 2 together. Opening the FB is so easy. Love that part.
Simplicity at its finest!
New to your channel, now subscribed. Liked this video & will explore more on your channel, thank you.
I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment my friend. I hope you like some of the other content👍
Beautiful scenery. Where is that ?
And that steak is beautiful toooooooo :o)
Thanks John , I'm on a piece of Crown Land in Central Ontario. It's a beautiful spot. Take care buddy👍
I could smell the steak cooking on Vancouver Island 😂😋
😂😂😂🔥 I believe it!
That steak looked awesome...maybe save me a bite....
Haha well...maybe😂
The titanium twig stove looks smaller than the stainless steel version.
They are identical actually. You can swap out the accessories and they fit perfectly. It might be a trick of the camera angle? Thanks for watching 👍
Thanks for this helpful video! How hard was it to clean the titanium grill after cooking that steak? Harder, easier, same as cleaning the stainless grill plate? And do you see any bending/warping in the titanium firesticks? Wondering if it would be better to pick up stainless firesticks for my extra set.
Thanks for watching , great questions!
Cleanup was the same as for SS. As far as warping goes…overall there was a bit of warping here and there but it’s easily bent back into shape. I don’t feel like the firestick warping is a problem. Hope that helps👍
@@Woodswalker1965 Thank you!!
I was shocked the price difference between the steel and titanium firebox stoves
True, titanium is a premium metal. It’s worth it if you value light weight gear. Thanks for watching👍
@@Woodswalker1965 oh don't get me wrong I completely agree I have a couple titanium stuff already and pretty light stuff I was just shocked how much people are charging for the titanium version on eBay compared to the Firebox store
@@trevethan82319841 Oh really, people are charging more on eBay? There must be a shortage out there. Take care👍
dont be cheap fool
1 flippers...HOOOOOO! You should try a 32oz ribeye! The best sleep pill ever! 😴👍
Yup, I'd be out for a week lol! 😁
Do you have any idea whether there is any significant difference in longevity in terms of warping of the metal?
I don’t believe the initial warping affects the longevity of the unit. I’ve been using it for about 8 months now and everything still fits and folds up nicely. Thanks for watching 👍
I'm watching this again because I want the titanium version that bad....
So tempting lol.......... DO IT!!! 😂😂😂😂
Seriously it's a tough sell when you already own the SS version, but it is nice to have 2 if cooking for a group.
A instructional video on knife and axe sharpening would be fantastic.... just saying 🤣
How about this one buddy😂😂Thanks for watching! 👍 ua-cam.com/video/fRsbKExglzc/v-deo.html
@@Woodswalker1965 fantastic, thank you very much.👍
You're welcome!🤙
did the steak cook ok from the flames of the wood. i find that meat cooks better after the wood has turned to hot glowing embers without a flame.
The steak was excellent!
Seiko monster?
Yes Sir😀
@@Woodswalker1965 one of my favorites
It is one of mine too, had to have orange and black lol.
LOL. "well, maybe"???? wtf?
Titanium has no advantages other than weight.
Stainless steel has the best heat transfer power in cooking. It is especially good for keeping food warm. an oven effect.
Thanks for sharing
