*Which of all these kits did you love the most!?!*
I am subscribed and found the video before the notification came ☺
Pandrew's magic Nice!
DropForgedSurvival The Little EDC Kit by Maxpedition was my favorite! Hell Yeah!
Personally, I like your fire kit most. Definitely gave me a couple ideas for a new setup. Keep up the great work Chris, and thanks for the video.
Chris, the Little heat was my favorite. The knife is really cool. Definitely gave me some ideas.
Very thorough kit. No need to worry about '2 is 1, 1 is none'. You got lots of options brother.
Greg Howard Which kit was your favorite out of all of them?
You need to include a magnifying glass. Lasts a lifetime.
Although highly weather dependent
Until it breaks...
Half a life time.. the other half is dark 😂. But honestly can't go wrong with a wee magnifying lens!
Thank you lol I was wondering why no one ever has them in these kits. Even with an overcast day you can get a fire going even if it takes hours still better than using heaps of energy using a friction method or using no reusable resources.
Why are folks hating on this video? I may not carry half of these items, but I really appreciate seeing all the options laid out. Fact is, I know a whole lot of people who go out into the woods on a dry day for a simple hike and picnic with a bic lighter, thinking they are guaranteed a fire, but they cannot get one going whatsoever. I’ve been in Kentucky in the early spring with everything soaking wet, and because I brought a few extra options, I’ve been able to get a fire going sufficiently to dry out some wood and have a really nice blaze. Options and backups are worth having when you really need them.
Lol This is the Truth Laura. I always bring 3-4 options if possible when heading out into the bush.
If you live in a place that gets down around freezing or below zero like I do , a Bic lighter will freeze up very easy making it unless.
I love camping and fire starting related gear. It's just so cool to have these kinds of kits on hand when you go out camping.
If you want a really good fire kit, carry a 5 gallon jug of gas around and a road flare. Works really good, and hasn't failed me yet.
Seems sketchy bud
Until it gets hot and explodes
Yet? Lol
DropForgedSurvival yup
I keep my flares In the gass
I thought for a moment it was just going to be three boxes of old fashioned strike anywhere kitchen matches. Great kits. Thank you for showing them to us, Chris and the DropForgedSurvival crew.
shovelhead8 Wow! Lol 😂 You know me better than that!
That 54 foot roll of fire starter was actually impressive. Seen this before and had my doubts. Seems a little pricey until you see that it starts over 300 fires 🔥. Using an inch and half instead of 2 and now it’s 432 fires. 2 cents per fire doesn’t seem pricey anymore. Carry that and a Bic lighter and you’re set for months.
This is probably the first time seeing one of these kits where I actually said I want that, that exact kit. Make no changes.
Surago Haha! I have everything linked to keep things simple bud! Build away!
Fire kit, cutting tools, med kit, shelter kit, misc tools, food kit, nav kit. I love kits.
I really like that big 750 piece kit!! When you’re out in the elements out of your comfort zone, the more options you have the better!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Cool video. Overkill? I don't think so. I've been winter backpacking for over 45 yrs and a great fire kit is a potential lifesaver. Sometimes there's just not enough natural dry tinder in damp, heavily wooded areas, so that extra tinder you carry is extremely useful. New sub...glad to have found your channel.
Love all the kits. I like multiple ways to start fires.
Lee Ferris 2-3 Methods! Always a good idea!
I mistakenly replaced my fire strip with my bubble gum strip. I was cold, but I wasn't hungry.
I like how you had different price kits, thank you. For me a firesteel, knife, and a Zippo work just fine
U should put kits like that together and sell them
Awesome! You are the only channel who includes a folding saw for processing firewood in their fire kit.
Corporal corner, self reliance outfitters, the navy seal all carry Laplander folding saw I could go on listing many more channels who carry folding saw.
Good video packed with great advice.... However, if I can critique one thing - Tone down the volume of your intro music. I watch these YT videos with earbuds on, and when the intro music is ten times louder than the rest of the video, it almost makes it not worth watching. Its not just annoying, it hurts my ear drums. Just saying.
Yes, the intro music (noise) is way way too loud.
I really like the Fire Strip Roll. The idea that it can be used for a decent sized fire on it's own is awesome. Just ordered a three pack.
Keep My 5 Alive! Awesome! I ordered a bunch 3 days ago!!! Cant wait for my order
Love seeing that majority of this stuff is Made in America.
88spd We love our builds!
I am always looking at return on investments, cost per use and organization. I like all these items. That's why I watch your channel. We think alot alike.
Excellent Video. 👍👍😎
Kelly Diggs Thanks kelly! Lots of epic gear hear
Those liter propane tanks with the ignition switch for plumbers usually, can make hundreds of fires and they're cheap
I own 2 Gerber Center Drives AWESOMENESS! Also, have majority of what you're talking about. Fire starter kits are a MUST; I have 2.
My 100 piece fire kit includes 3 bics 97 matches
I'm building my first fire kit. Great video with awesome ideas!! Thanks for taking the time to break it all down
I really like the kit, but we have to admit, it's just overkill, you can build a fire in under 5 minutes with a flint and steel, no problem. When you're hiking or just having some stuff on you 'just in case' weight is essential. One of the most common mistakes is survival, is carrying stuff you don't actually need.
Nice job! Great presentation. You have a radio presentation voice. I like how you move quickly and to the point. Thank you!
That fire strip roll is bad ass!!! I must get one!
Bought 3 rolls and only $4.00 shipping!
I love it
Once again, a very comprehensive and rounded loadout. Will try to come up with a slightly more slimline version for my edc, that includes some of these ideas. Cheers Chris, given me a project for today 👍🔥
Of course! That is why we designed and showcased several versions and styles for an Effective Fire Kit
The OCD part of my brain loves having things organized by use like this, but also this seems like a great way to lose 750 pieces of fire starting equipment all at once.
I love those kits Chris!
I really appreciate that you have a wide range of starters and tinders. In general, prepared tinders are just consumables, (one and done,) but they're vital to getting a fire lit quickly. Especially when conditions aren't ideal for nursing a fire up from a spark. There was more than once when we'd get to a campsite, it's getting dark and the kids are hungry. That isn't really a situation to practice your fire starting skills. We just have to get it lit and start cooking and my prepared tinder is my go-to for getting us going.
Normally tho, I'm encouraging my family to practice our fire starting skills without the prepared tinders. Flint today; bow drill tomorrow; and maybe a fresnel the day after. The important thing for me is that it teaches my kids to keep an eye out for natural tinders along our hikes. Sometimes we have races to keep it fun. Who can start a fire and boil the water for their freeze dried meal first.
You have some great kits there and I can't imagine your family being cold at night during a bugout. Thanks for measuring that roll and trying it out for us! Great Job and great video!
Horror Amino nit everyone is a pyro wizard... Im not... but I practice and practice! Its what its all about! Learning and having fun! Nothing like catching your own food and cooking primitive
Great video was wondering what size tin can are you using for your pack?
Fantastic kits for all budgets and weight considerations, I think in Texas in recent times people would have appreciated having all the options and setups. - all of them.
Just wondering, but did anyone else notice the kit seemed about 700 items short? Or was the fire strip roll supposed to count by the inch? 🤔 That aside, nicely done video, some original and good items to add to mine- Thumbs up!
Well rounded kits overall!
Nathan Reed Thanks! Which one was your favorite!?
Good video, shows a lot of different stuff which is I think what you wanted to do, Pay no attention to the haters in the comments.
It finally happened! After all these years of backpacking, bicycle touring and 4x4 camping I finally had a situation where I had to use a little bit of the store-bought tinder that I've been carrying around all this time. I kayak camped at a popular sandy beach spot and the ground was picked clean of anything flamable by the hordes of campers before me with exception to a bunch of 2x4s someone left behind. I couldn't get a fire started with the very little I had to work with and succumbed to using a string of "Baddest Bee Fire Fuse". Now look at me, watching youtube videos and considering upping my fire starter kit game.
It would be nice if you put the approximate price of what it cost you to put the 750 piece kit together.
I'm personally quite fond of the clipper lighters for a few reasons, 1 they are about the same price as a full sized bic. 2, they're refillable. 3, they have a replaceable spark wheel that can be removed and used on it's own if you run out of fuel.
Also I tend to wrap them in waxed hemp wick and some gorilla duct tape, allowing me to use it as, 1 a normal lighter. 2 a long lighter for candles, grills, reaching into fire lays, and any other reason for a long lighter. 3 I can take a length of the hemp wick wrap it in the tape and use it as fire tender.
I like this kit pretty sweet.👍🏻
I absolutely love your fire starter pack I feel like you covered all the bases and have a lot of good fire starting equipment I have a couple Fire Starting ideas that you may not know about that you might like one is the pull rope Firestarter also a road flare and a jar of petroleum jelly works great and has dual function can be used for medical purposes or Firestarter you can also make paper biscuits with petroleum jelly incorporated into it made from recycled leaves lint paper and chopped up sticks and petroleum jelly
Jeez now my fire steel, matches and 3 lighters seem like nothing. Nice video man.
This man is still replying to comments 1 yr. after posting this video, that is awesome man!
I bet for every real bush man around the world desperately in need of one of these items, there are millions of unused survival packs siting in garages collecting dust and perhaps never to be used, ever!
OUTSTANDING VIDEO! I can't tell you how inspirational seeing your wife going bushcrafting was! My personal goal is to go overnighting with my three labs. But getting my wife to join our adventures increases the odds of me going out more often! Win/Win! Bill Doyle from Upr Grnwd Lk NJ!
These kits will impress both survivalists and arsonists 😛
Those companies need to offer that stuff in survival stores because that's the only way some people is going to get to get it i also love your setup it's awesome
Silver Phoenix Thanks bud. Most people buy kits one piece at a time. So that is why i link my kits in the video description. For Inspiration
Awesome video man
The first kit was cool
Thanks alot Mark
Awesome.
Some really great items there that would be well suited to the generally damp Irish environment.
I keep numerous methods of fire starting in my kit. Favourites being my magnesium block, good quality fire steel, charcloth, Birch bark and all the typical other methods.
Recently I found wax impregnated wood shavings being sold as BBQ lighters. They light great and burn for a minute or two. Only disadvantage is they are a little bulky.
Loving the fat stick. Looks amazing. Definitely one going in and another to process for prepared tinder.
John Costello agreed!
I have a five thousand and one piece air gun kit. It is one air gun, and five thousand pellets. :)
You are Great Instructor And Advice Thanks Making Fire Is Hard Naturally Im glad They Have Tools These Days And How Is Billy Doing
Bob is doing better. Nah.. Im no instructor. Just sharing my passion and what I learn as i learn it!
Well said
While I think this maybe overkill on an individual level, it would probably be useful for a lifeboat/aircraft survival kit. It can prove extremely useful for novices in a disaster zone.
Also a great use for a kit like this... possibly in a dry bag
I really like the zip up bag with the different types of strike tools and materials it looks like it could fit easily into my back pack
Thanks ben
lol awesome kit. you forgot to tell people if you need to bug out then keep in light and streamlined, if you want to survive then redundancy is your friend.
I use cannon fuse. Super light weight, slow burning even underwater and will light with a ferro rod. 20 feet weighs next to nothing and it will pack anywhere. Once its lit there is no putting it out. Nice video!
Clever. I can appreciate that.
I think some of you seriously need to chill out this is his opinion he has chosen to share it with all you apparent experts how about growing a pair and showing us all how you would do it or have you sprained your fingers with all the typing
Damn. You right, you right
I'm copying this for a bug out bag. Thanks man
You should make this fire kit available for purchase
I love letting folks go DIY on their ideas.
Holy Moly! Now that is an Awesome Kit! That Samurai was a Bada**!! 😉
Outdoor Momma That she is! Haha
For anyone wondering this all cost about 230-250$
Your welcome
One thing I really dig is the intro music. That little ditty rocks!
Thanks bud
How much does your big fire kit cost in total?
Love that fire stick but can't find it anywhere? I don't think he makes them anymore? Your kit was the way I build my new kit. Excellent and well thought out!
You could also use that firestarting tape as a signal fire for an airplane or helicopter
I dont see why not.
Thank you for sharing these 4 fire kits. I love how you made one for the different levels. Also, nice work doing the due diligence to measure out that firestarter tape. I'm looking for the link to the Gen 2 Fat Rope Stick. I don't see it in your show notes.
That kit is large in the amount of stuff it has in it, but more than one needs though in the real world.
Lol For some peoples opinions... sure. But that is why we offered 4 kits Configurations! Thanks bud
That is a lot of cool stuff!! I am not all that bright, but I haven’t seen anyone talking about picking the most foolproof fire starter and putting 2 or 3 of them in various places on your body/ pack. I used to enjoy coming up with 20 or 30 different ways creating fire and putting it all in a big waterproof container. When you have one giant kit on you, it can get lost. Think of using gel-waxed cotton balls and an exotac nano spark and or a Spark-light one handed sparkers. The gel-waxed cotton balls burn for 20 min or longer. I put 4 together with a sparker in a ziplock bag. It weighs next to nothing. I have 1 in my pocket, one in top lid of pack and 1 in ditty bag. 1in my first aid kit. There is no way that I will lose them all. They weigh practically nothing and they will get a fire going even in rain. I have even used one to boil water. Knowing about natural tinder is a plus. I also have Fresnel Lens in wallet. God bless. Keep up the good work. John
I keep some good stuff in my EDC for sure. This is merely a kit as a standalone item or in a larger pack. Either way... if you got at least one idea! Im good!
This is exactly the video I was needing! Outstanding
Dps have you tried the exotac titan light and the turboflame vflame? Those are the best lighter fluid and butane lighters in my opinion. I think having 2 lighters is a good thing as they are the most convenient for a short bugout situation and that’s what most people will use.
aditya tiwary We have most certainly field tested the Titan Light! Check out our episode on it! We were the first
If i had a dollar every time you said “ferocious” i would almost have enough to buy one fire strip roll lol
Eric Weiman Its all about ideas for kit building... Why we showcase 4 kits Eric! Relax Bud
I like the bigger maxpedition pouch
Nathan Reed right on bud! Years and years and kit!
He likes the word "ferocious" :-)
One of the best kits you’ve put together (and you have done some awesome kits so that’s saying something)!
Thanks alot! Best way to improve is to experiment, practice, and tinker
I don't need a fire kit you're mum keeps me warm .
Dam that fire strip roll is badass!!! For 7.50! That's something even my cheap ass wants to get now 😆
its a little overkill and with everything together if you lose the bag your stuck then. all you need is a couple of options spread around your pack and person
If that works for you
i agree with you on the overkill part. buti must say, he gave me some nice ideas with the waterproof tinder-tape that lasted for a good 15 minutes.
Cool kit ,I made my own but used more natural tinder ,I did not want to spend to much money ,your kit is cool and better for a survival kit in my opinion !!!!
I'm likely one of the unpopular ones, if you want to carry extra firestarting stuff, go for it! The more options you have, the more likely you'll be set for whatever comes you way!
As I said in the beginning! I dont hate on anyone “game” for levels or amounts of gear. For some... knife and ferro rod! Your good... others want.... more! Not everyone is ray mears! Lol
Bic and 749 matches
CHRIS..... where are you??? We need you and miss you brother. PLEASE COME BACK!!!!
14....you have 14 items....that can start 750+ fires. comon guy.
There’s nothing wrong with that it all packs down
@@اللهأكبر-د3ل6ل something something eggs, basket, ill keep my stuff separate
Did you ever try those Fire Pucks? They're awesome
Ernie Durocher Years ago... kind of old news and not very efficient
Good video. I personally feel like they're too much fire starting. Could've made room for some other things more beneficial
I honestly have no clue what you mean? This is purely designed as “ONLY” a fire kit.
@@DropForgedSurvival i know what she means, clearly, you take to much crap, its not needed, you are trying to bring out in the field way to much fire stuff,its ocd,,take just what is needed due to weight of carrying, you just bring everything,thats not how true survival is, you have to take what you need,and not what you dont,
Hey Chris, LUV IT!!!
this is a very usefull video
I love that large kit. Great job guys
Thanks Nedd
These are more like 75 pieces not 750 pieces! How did you come with this number? Or is it just for advertising?
I guess he is counting each roll as 300 pieces of tinder.
Dude! Absolutely awesome video!!!! Amazing kits, and very cool products!!!! Thank you
Thanks alot Cody!
and I'm out here with a mini altoids tin full of charcloth in my knife sheath using quartz from the ground, lol
Awesome bud
i keep a wallet "get to my bug out bag" kit on me at all times, its essentially a small knife, matches, spear blade and rope, i usually keep enough food to hold me over for 3 days and its basically my way to know if I'm away from home, i can get home on foot and grab my bug out bag in a basic end of society situation, it help everyday too.
If it works don’t fix it bud! This is purely a fire kit
@@DropForgedSurvival I know, I'm just mentioning this cuz of how with one time I got lost and has to use the kit to get home, it is priceless to have a blade and fire with you, I in fact still keep the torch I made from my socks, a tree branch and sap in my room as a reminder, "FIRE IS YOUR FRIEND"
Where do you buy the pouch that you store all of this stuff in?
Its a Maxpedition, you can find them on amazon
Hidden woodsmen also makes some really good pouches and bags
Who in their right mind would give this video a thumbs down. I love the whole presentation and would love to put together the 750 Fire Starter Kit for myself.
That is cool
Very nice Chris thank you something I’ve been trying to work on this week is a couple of fire kits I have that mini boss but I’ve used a lot of it.
For the Boss Kits... I recommend.. Buy 2. One 2 Practice with and use and the other to keep in a bag.
Yea buddy. Got any coupon code on those survival boxes
DFS10 should offer 10% off
Sweet will try Thx bunches
I don't know why, but for the past 3 days, all I've been watching on UA-cam are survival kit unboxing
Then check out the surviveware survival kit review I just did!
I really would love to have this kit with my hiking bag
Terry Brooks Which kit? There are way more than one
@@DropForgedSurvival this particular video kit but how much does the kit in the video weigh
Not much at all... A pound maybe.... maybe
@@DropForgedSurvival can I win a kit?
Just extra weight,,, Never in 60 years of camping have I ever needed to carry this much stuff for making a fire.
Best knife for a edc/ shtf, is the m&p M2.0. bought mine for 24,88 at bass pro, and it is great. Highly recommend.
*_ferocious_*
Obviously my favorite and the best would be yours, but for me to just throw in my pocket or side pocket of my bag the mini fire boss kit looks the best. And I can't say anything about the fire tape since I haven't tried it, but looks like a brilliant idea! Great video! 🔥
Every kit works and works well! No shame in anyones game! Flame on brother!
