  • Today we discuss exactly what I carry in my fire kit for bushcrafting. My pouch is the Condor sidekick pouch and I show my ferro rods and other fire starting equipment that I love to play with in the woods.

    Whatever you review or demonstrate, you always do such a thorough job with it, and this little bushcraft fire kit is no exception. As you were pulling things out of that pouch, your enthusiasm reminded me of a small child who was excited to find a prize in the bottom of his Cracker Jacks. Well done, my friend!

    Nice kit, but it's a bit "ferro rod heavy", IMO. My kit has one medium ferro rod, one butane lighter, some fatwood, a bag of Birch bark, an Altoids can Flint and steel kit, a lens and an Altoids tin with a couple tea bags and sugar packets. Various means of starting a fire and some refreshment! 😁

    I can't be the first person to remind folks that a diminutive Opinel #6 has a spine that makes the perfect ferro rod striker but is also a multi-tasker because it is a great blade for fine and detail work in the field. Further, that affordable little knife would easily fit in your kit pouch. I love Opinel!

    I'm a bag nut. I like the way you have that set up. It's very complete with lots of options!

    Good Fire Kit. I like Condor bags. I use the rip away models for my Fire Kit and FAK. I like being able to easily detach the rip away bag and then walk to where I need to start a fire so I have everything I need right there without having to carry my whole bag. Thanks for sharing.

    I like a pouch for a fire kit, though I think carrying that many items is a mistake. Yes, it's fun playing with and learning different ways of starting a fire, but I've found very few master other ways unless they leave their primary method at home, and take, at MOST, only two types of fire starter, neither of which they're very good at.

    You should never have trouble getting a fire started with your kit! Great kit. I have many of the same items as you do, though not as many fero rods. You're right about how nice a large fero rod is, as you can actually shower marginal tinder until it is dry enough to ignite. A lot of the items I carry are more for fun than anything, as all I really need is: Large fero rod, cotton balls with Vaseline, and a piece of Fatwood in case the cotton balls get damp/wet, and a knife of course. One thing though, I have tried keeping fatwood shavings ready, but after a while they dry up. Now, I don't shave them until I am ready to use them. I have even put them in a plastic bag but they still dry up on me. Maybe the bag had a pin hole it it. Anyway, thanks for showing so many options for fire, and your Condor case is perfect.
