I have seen dozends of bowdrill videos, but yours brings it to the point. Your tutorials are fantastic! You always mention the situation, the goal, the critical aspects, the (most likely creative) solution, the key skills. Clear words, visually illustrated, easy understandable and inspiring. Thank you so much, for editing so many of them 🙏👍
Your compliment makes me happy! Thank you very much!!!
Your insight into bush craft vs. survival is a very important lesson for everyone. It generalizes well beyond fire making and highlights the importance of having the proper tools in addition to the prober skills. Thank you.
Your comment makes me happy! Thank you!
I believe that your friction fire failures was perhaps the most instructive information that you shared in this video. Many people have the false notion that since they have watched videos on how to do something, they now know how to do it themselves. Your video showed how difficult it can be and hopefully inspired some people to personally practice the skill for themselves.
There is a friction fire technique sometimes called "drying cycles". Drying cycles is a technique employed when friction fire materials may be too damp. The technique many times will help dry out the wood enough to enable friction fire success. I have done a couple videos demonstrating the technique, but in my opinion, a fellow UA-cam creator known on UA-cam as David West is probably a better source of knowledge for teaching this and many more valuable friction fire skills.
As always, a big thumbs up on the video. Your skill set is more often than not, quite unique.
Super erklärt und vorgeführt 👍🏻
Danke für deine Unterstützung im Vorgespräch!
Good stuff today - as always. I especially liked the lesson you gave of the difference between bushcraft and survival. A very important distinction. Thank you, Sir!
I once went on a hike with 2 bushcraft buddies in a dried riverbed. We all took some dried willow and tried to produce a bow drill coal. All of us experienced, nobody got a coal. The wood was not perfect, but we had paracord...the thing which was missing was a good bearing. You said it and I agree completely....people overlook this but I think that not losing frinction in the bearing is super important. I used the one on my ESEE 5 to make a bow drill coal. And it worked....however I don't really like to use the knife handle for that. It is uncomfortable imo. But if I had a good bearing on that day, in that dried riverbed, I would have most certaily gotten a coal.
I also liked your tip about practicing with a coin! As in all things...practice is very important...but a good bearing can help...😉
I agree 100% my friend!
I always learn something from your videos and your positive attitude gives me strength. Proper planning prevents piss-poor performance this is the message I get from you.
Thanks for your positive feedback!
You are a genius sir, now the first chanel on the list
Sehr gut gemacht lieber Felix! Wunderbar, danke auch für die nette Erwähnung. Beste Grüße Sepp
Danke für die nette Idee mein lieber Freund!! Ich wünsche Dir ein tolles Weekend!
Das erste Feuer zählt egal wie 😉
LG +Ewig Glut🔥
Es ist schon sehr cool zu sehen wohin so eine Idee führt. 😁
👋🔥✌️Hello, Felix. Thank's a lot for very interesting idea 👍💪🤘!
Hi Felix: How much fun it is to watch your brilliant ideas and techniques which you have picked up. Thank you for mentioning the others which have given to you.
Dear Felix… a great video from which I again learnt something… and yes… between bushcraft and survival there is a huge gap… how to find a dead dry wood…
Danke und ein schönes Wochenende…Liebe Grüsse
Christian
Danke Christian...liebe Grüsse zurück
Absolutely love the double cord Bow. Your videos are Top of the line information.
Thank you very much for this wonderful compliment!
Felix, einfach irre aber total genial! Ich liebe das Venture PRO Kid 👍👌
Danke Roland!
I think I, too, first the embedded coin technique on Sepp's "Waldhandwerk" channel.
Something I learned from "NW Primate" whose milieu is the temperate rainforest of the Northwest in North America, when using green or damp wood in your set is this. Start TWO divots next to each other on your hearthboard at the same time with a burn in. The heat from each of them helps to dry out the other. He was usually able to get a viable ember then on his first attempt after carving the notches and didn't need the second divot, but when he failed with the first divot (i.e. drilled almost all the way through the board) the heat from the first divot had really dried out the second one.
Something else he usually did was to carve a shallow channel on the bottom of the hearth board under each divot. This let a flow of air come under the board to help oxygenate the ember once it started, thereby helping to build it up.
Thanks for your channel, Felix; it is always entertaining and also informative.
Thanks a lot for this super interesting tricks!!
NW Primate could start a fire on the top of Mt. Everest I bet. That guy’s amazing.
The coin trick is really great. Also the general idea of reducing the friction on the hand part. I'm sure, if there is no coin available, something like this can be fixed with an leftover bottle cap, a hollow stone or something else hard and concave. Great idea💡 thanks for the video
I like your idea with a bottle cap!!!
Yeah especially in a "survival situation" you have a better chance to find some trash, like a tin can, than to find a coin. I'm also thinking if it would work with glass, although that might be dangerous and could shatter.
Speaking of shatter. Be careful when you bang rocks together, they can splitter, as you saw by the amount of small rock chips in the video. If one of those gets in your eye it's not a fun time.

Wow. That was a lot of great information. Can't wait to try the coin trick. You are a terrific teacher - thank you.
Greetings Felix. Excellent tutorial. You are the perfect spokesperson for this knife system. Second, the demonstration between the 2 scenarios was honest, and necessary, as well as the several attempts for an ember. Dampness is the killer with friction fire. Well done, thank you.
Knife system 😂😂😂😂behave
Very interesting. The best teacher. Thanks
Thank you very much!
Hallo Felix, klasse Tipps und es war interessant, einen Teil der Entwicklungsgeschichte des Venture zu sehen! LG Micha
Again a very cool and informative Tipps- and Tricks-Video in Felix-Style! Thank you for showing! LG
That was a great tip! I've also just rubbed the end of the spindle that goes in the bearing block on the side of my nose. The oil it pics up helps reduce friction too. Used in concert with your tip friction should be reduced even more. Thanks for sharing.
As scout leaders we played around a lot with bow drills and found that even a humid day was enough to make it much more difficult to get an ember.
i agree !! Thanks a lot for your comment!
Your technique just sucks. They easy even with damp wood. Maybe stick to a lighter if your not man enough. I smoke 60 a day all light with a bow drill 😊
Привет, Феликс! Всегда с удовольствием смотрю твои видео.
Great lesson again Felix well done 👍
Thank you very much!
Finally! A use for the 5 rappen coin :)
Yes :-D
Super cooles Video video, hab mich achon gefreut auf heute Freitag. Bowdrill steht schon lange auf meiner Liste. Danke für die wertvollen Tipps wieder einmal.
sehr gerne und liebe Grüsse
Hallo Felix, mit diesem Messer am Mann o. Frau und die besten Tricks von dir ist es fast unmöglich
kein Feuer hinzubekommen. Gefällt mir richtig gut.
LG +Ewig Glut🔥
Der neue Kassenschlager:
'Außer Atem - Felix, der Feuerbohrer'.
Hi Felix great video bud keep'em coming. Hope you and your family are doing great too. Stay safe and be well brother. 👊😎🤙🍻🇺🇸
unwarscheinlich was die tiefe deiner erfahrung und wissen anbelangt. ich bin stolz auf dich und deine arbeit. winkelrid würde dich umarmen🤗
Felix, you are the best ever master teacher. I recently tried and failed to use the magnifying glass on my old Explorer to make a fire (the one with the gray frame and real glass lens) yet I know when I was a kid 50 years ago it worked! Maybe you can show us how... thank you!
This is a blade I WILL GET, but I must wait a little. Dreaming about!
Thanky for your support my friend!
Wise words Felix
Thanks a lot Peter!
Brilliant, Felix, as usual!
👍
Felix you can also do that with a spoon.
Oh yess.... super idea!! i never thought about...
If you have a spoon. I, for one, am much more likely to have a coin in my pocket than a spoon.
@@donalddicorcia2433I always carry a spoon anyway for yogurt or sth like that wen I'm out on the go..felix is tops
@@FelixImmler
Felix.... you're the new , massively improved version of the great mors kochansky ...sir ...
Well done ...
I never have coins as I don’t usually have cash… however, guess what’s going in my bugout bag! I couple of different sized coins!!!
Excellent - thank you
Great video thanks. The bow drill is a great tool and skill to practice and practice and conquer with success and then continue practicing to keep the awesome skill and accomplishment of making fire. But having a bic lighter and a ferro rod when out in a wild place that you may face a survival situation is so important and practicing with them along with other fire making techniques is crucial.
Thanks a lot for your interesting comment!
Thank you Felix for sharing great information.
Dear Ladys and Gentlemen, once upon a time there was a JOB they called Firekeeper.
The Firekeepers Job was only to keep it burning, whatever the weather.
If any Neightbour lost the flame, anyone could go to the Firekeeper.
Felix - Fire is a "must have"
Thank you for all the Work and sharing with us. Hallööle aus Franken

Thye idea with using a coin is brilliant . And you showing the difference in bushcraft and survival is a great lesson.
Thanks Felix
Thanks a lot for watching!
Good stuff my friend! Thanks for posting! Regards and best my friend!
Many Thanks for The Video 💖💖💖
Thanks a lot for watching!
Skills!!! Awesome job!!!
Thank you!
Alles perfekt und nachvollziehbar erklärt lieber Felix!👍👍👍 Danke dafür und LG aus Oberösterreich!
Thank you.
Thanks for watching!
was wieder zeigt wie gut logisch durchdacht das venture ist...( ok.. messer fixierung, aber bei fülle an features kann mann/frau/ es ohne probleme nachrüsten) als backup zum vorhandenen feuerstahl ..genial- ich liebe plan b....👍👍👍
Excellent advice video. Thank you, Felix!
Thanks a lot Leonard!
Very interesting! Like always. Thanks!👍
Thanks a lot my friend!
In a survival course in the South African army in 1980,s we learned to make fire this way. The record to make fire when I completed the course was 7 seconds with a bow drill and sticks. We were taught by Kalahari bushmen instructors and they were awesome at survival. I just didn't like eating the rotten baboon stew at the end of the course 😂😂😂.
Thanks a lot for your super interesting story!
Nice video, I liked it ! Thank you Felix !
Thanks a lot Dennis!
Ingenious
The coin trick is superb. I have mine set into a piece of fatwood so I have the choice to take shavings for the ferro rod or use as a bow drill bearing block.
Super... thank you!
Very good information. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks a lot for watching!
Genius! I need to get out more often!
Thanks a lot for your comment!
Great video, Felix 👍
Thank you very much!
Bow drill fire making looks very difficult. I will stick to ferro rod fire making as I have for the last 20 years. Thanks 🔪🎸
Excellent 👍👍👍
Thank you very much!
Great Video!!! Great Ideas!!
Thank you very much!
Cool video
Nice video, thanks 😊👌🙌👍🍀
Thanks for watching!
Great
Thank you!
That was a VERY important lesson. Thanks Felix. Les in UK
Thank you very much for this wonderful feedback!
A humid day can make the difference between being able to use tinder (char cloth, punk wood, King Alfred's cakes etc) or having to resort to readily combustible material like fatwood shavings. This was a really valuable lesson, Felix. I've never tried using a bow drill, but I will now, starting with dry timber from home. Thanks for this and all your other instructional videos.
Thank you very much for your positive feedback!
Genial!👏
Thank you!
I love you swiss, you all are so talented at everything! Music, outdoors,ect..! 🤟🏽❤️
Thank you very much!!
Swede?!? I thought Felix was Swiss.
@@donalddicorcia2433 ya, you're right
❤ oooh that looks cool, I'm in favour of any multi purpose item.🎉😂
😄😄😄
Hi Felix. Super geil wie immer - Danke. Bleib gesund. L.G. Nigel
Thanks for this video I ordered the normal green models but if I'm honest I'm so happy with it
👍🏼good vid Felix. I like the coin trick. Never tried friction. Very difficult. Have you seen David Wests channel? Lots of crazy fire methods.
Yes i know his channel. Great guy!
Great content Brother.
Thank you very much!
...schön gemacht (wie imm(l)er)...lollol...und guter Rat dazu!!!... Grüsse aus die Niederlande!!!
Vielen Dank Jan!
Wer hats erfunden🤣..nichts Ricola, der Felix wars😉🤣👍🏻🍀
🤣🤣
Good video Felix, thanks for sharing, God bless my friend !
Thank you very much dear Michael!
Wieder ein super Video, Felix. Der Unterschied von Bushcraft zu tatsächlichem Survival ist enorm und sollte uns bewusst sein. Gut zu erkennen an Deinem Beispiel!
Da greift imho auch wieder Deine "mental Toolbox".
Beim Bushcraften eignen wir uns die Fähigkeiten an, die wir dann auch in der eventuellen Überlebens-Situation anwenden KÖNNTEN. (Immer in der Hoffnung, es nie zu MÜSSEN...)
Zu den Klettbändern ein Vorschlag:
Einiges meiner Computer-Hardware (Maus etc.) kam mt Kabelbindern aus doppelseitigem Klettband. Dabei ist eine Seite geschlitzt, so könnte man schön die Schlinge um eine Seite des
Tragesystems machen... Die Bänder dürfte es auch Solo im Computer-Laden geben...
Zum Feuerbohren:
Ich habe gelernt, den feinen Zunder auf eine "wasserdichte" Unterlage (Rinde o.ä.) zu legen, direkt mit dem Brett einzuklemmen und die Glut darauf fallen zu lassen. So spart man die Zeit und das "Gefummel", erst die Glut in das Zundernest transportieren zu müssen, ehe man mit dem Pusten beginnt.
(bekommt man evtl. die Scheide schnell genug weg, um das "Blasrohr" dafür zu benutzen?)
I really like the coin method if you don't have a venture. I used a U.S. penny because it is copper because it is easier to bend. With the World economy the way it is we all have pennies. HA! Thank you Felix. Your Friends in Florida USA 🌴
Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.🙏
I don't remember where I heard the tip of using a skateboard wheel bearing.
that's an interesting trick
Same for me,many years ago,I saw the trick with a coin from Sepp for the very first time.
I thought it was a very neat idea.
Nice demonstration Felix
Thanks a lot dear Steve!
Buen video👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Thank you!
I did my wooden handle condor knife with a penny and epoxy. Used a socket and small Ballpine hammer in a vise to make the shape. Drilled a hole in the handle slightly oversized to fit the curved penny in epoxy. Worked like a champ.
Felix du alter Fuchs 👍
🤣🤣 danke Gerhard!
Hallo Felix,
danke Dir. Wieder ein super Video.
Ich hatte mal den vorderen Teil von einem Löffel in einen Messergriff als Gegenlager eingelassen aber die Idee mit Münze ist auch super!
Du hast auch sehr schön den Unterschied zwischen Bushcraft und Survival Bowdrill gezeigt. Ich bin auch sehr am zweifeln ob man im wirklichen Survivalfall (vor allen als zivilisationsgeschädigter) in der Lage ist mit einem Bowdrill aus gesammelten Materialien ein Feuer zu entfachen. Es ist bestimmt möglich aber es muss alles passen und es darf nicht zu feucht sein oder gar regnen.
Umso wichtiger finde ich es an allen möglichen und unmöglichen Stellen Feuerzeuge und -stähle einzupacken denn auch wenn man das Feuer machen mit einem Feuerstahl üben muss ist das um ein vielfaches einfacher.
Hab eine schöne Woche.
VG Eric.
Du hast absolut Recht. Überall einen Feuerstahl einzupacken ist eine gute Vorsorge!
Hi Mr. Immler, the video is very interesting as usual, is the pro model later available in red. Thanks in advance
Merci pour toutes ces chouettes vidéos, je me régale. J"ai cependant une remarque sur le bloc de roulement naturel que tu utilises. Un résineux bien gras lubrifie le haut du foret et ne disperce pas l'énergie en ses deux extrémités.
Hi Felix, tolles Video. Mir ist aufgefallen, dass du die Kuhle im Bohrbrett mit der Messerspitze vorbereitest. Das müsste auch mit dem Endstück gehen (wie beim Löffelschnitzen)? Wäre doch einen Versuch wert. Ich freue mich schon auf das nächste Video.
Ich glaube das Endstück ist zu flach... (bzw. zu wenig spitz)
🔥👍
Thank you very much!
Buen video como siempre y muy buen explicado lo de la moneda 👌 saludos desde 🇪🇦😃
¡muchas gracias amigo mío!
Merci pour la démo 🙏
Thanks a lot for watching!
Profi skills,,,😇👍✌️🤝
Thanks a lot my friend!
Dear Felix ! I am a big long time fan of your work here on UA-cam, you may remember me from many comments. But i have one critizism to this video. If i buy a knife for €150, i shouldn't have to find ways so my knife doesn't come out of the sheath. It should be secure from the factory in the first place. Heilandsack! That is why i stick to my trusted fixed blades, if i have to take a fixed blade with me. Most of the time, for what i do in the woods, my rangergrip is more than adequate, though. Greetings from vienna, i hope you are not mad with me for the critizism.
I want a red handle AND divot. Victorinox, please do a run.
Let this know Victorinox direct!
There are velcro straps already pre-made and precut the same size you seek. You can buy them individually, or a roll of them. I am a DJ. We use them for organizing microphone cables. Instead of a buckle, the simply have a slot. One piece of velcro.
Thanks a lot for this valuable tip!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you Steve!
I was always taught to use some oil from the side of your nose to reduce friction too. Great coin trick. The link to your knife in the description does not look set correctly… Cheers.
👍👍👍
Thanks a lot!
👍👍
Thank you Glen!
This Knife is a Schneidteufel👍👍👍
Danke für das tolle Feedback!
There is also a 3rd category of bow drill fire besides the bushcraft and the survival. It is called the UA-camr bow drill fire, where they take store bought dry wood and pretend it was freshly harvested to show how fantastic they are in making fire using the bow drill in the pouring rain!
😅 😂 🤣 I forgot this aspect... true!
