I really appreciate this video because so many are focused on creating the finest curls possible. I find it far more realistic and less time consuming to use thicker curls , Especially when the temperature drops and my dexterity weakens.
No, I did not use a firesteel in this video, but check out the video "Fire In A Thunderstorm", in that video i show a good way to light a fire with a firesteel. Thanks for watching. /NS.
Nice on NS, simple and enjoyable. Feather sticks are a brilliant way of getting fire started and in certain situations they can be invaluable. its a great skill to have and looks like you've got it nailed! Sweet mate!
I would have liked to see you start the fire with a bow or even a striker so other people can be learn how to start a fire from scratch. Other than that it's a great video. love the feathering job too. I was looking for a video of that technique to show a friend as I am not out in the woods to do it myself. Well done.
This was far from hard batoning and the wood was pine which is a softwood, and the pieces were completely knot-free, there was no possible risk of destroying the knife. But I understand what you mean and if I were in a survival situation I would think twice before I did this. /NS.
That is very true my friend, it's all about how well you have prepared yourself, whether you make a fire or build a shelter you have to be prepare with both knowledge and materials. /NS.
Camp fires are very relaxing to just sit and watch, it can be difficult at first when you start making them but it gets easier when you get further into the wood. /NS.
NorthSurvival "what axe is that?" "I don´t know what it was called, but it was cheap." "What knife is that?" "Mora 2000." What you racist against axes or sumthin!!! lol!
Dave Canterbury endorses the use of feather sticks more than any other form of tinder actually. You might check out his pathfinderschool videos. Just a suggestion.
Wish I could do this myself live in the outdoors wooden home go out and catch and hunt for food cook over a fire the lot if only someone could point me to the right direction tbh
ShesBeyondBeauty As is said just add more wood. But one thing you can do is put the ends of one or two logs on the fire when it has plenty of red hot ‘coals’, and then when that part is burnt move the loge in a little more. This saves having to prepare so much wood, and in the half or whole log, and here I am talking of a log of maybe 10 cm thick, the wood will burn slower so is ideal to use when camping at night where you might want to build the fire up a little but in a way that it does not flare up and burn too quickly as you will be asleep! Take care mrbluenun

I like the technique of placing a piece of wood to lean the "tipi" against. It looks like it makes the early fire very sturdy.
Yes it does, and gives it much air.

Thanks for watching.
/NS.
your videos are so interesting. I could sit here and watch them for hours. thanks
Camp fires are always so cool to sit and watch. Your feather sticks look better then mine. I'm going to have to practice more. Great video.

Well done. Straight to the stuff with no bs. Awesome vid.
+MisterAnthropist Thanks a lot.
Love the video, great angle to see everything, simple to understand. Next time I'm out there I am sure that this will come in handy.
+Hayden Jones Thanks a lot.

OH!!! A diddle stick! That's what mountain men called them in the 1800's.
Thank you. Yes.
Thanks, It does not matter if you do them fast or slow as long as they become good.
/NS.
I own a Mora 2000 because of your videos. Thank you
Its a bit challenging to build up the fire only with feather stick.
Very nice video!
Greetings!
Alex.
I agree, have a great sunday.
/NS.
well done brother, just like I would have done it. Thumbs up from Nygaard Bushcraft.
Excellent! Very relaxing video, my friend.
You are welcome my friend, thanks for watching, and thank you very much for the sub.
/NS.
that bow saw is freakin awsome sir. I would love to have one
Yes it worked good.
Thank you, well, i do not know, but it must be full tang, sharp, strong steel, good for batoning.
learned like 19 different things from just this video
This is a real fire, and you don´t need to make it hard all the time to light a fire.
Very informative, thanks for the video!
Thanks a lot.
Thanks, it can be difficult at first when you start making them but it gets easier when you get further into the wood.

Looks like you found some nice dry wood which caught fire easily with your technique.
Take care

+mrbluenun Thanks a lot.
Thank you my friend, i agree, they are great.
/NS.
Thanks.
Thanks, fire is often relaxing to look at.
/NS.
I like the video because how he used the wood shedding to make the tender
Thank you.
I am so glad you liked my comment
Lovely fire man
I got it from a store here in Sweden. I don´t know what it is called.
Thank you.
/NS.
awesome job! thanks for sharing
+herbmonster99 Thanks a lot.
Yes, sometimes it can be nice.
Thank you, feather sticks are great.
/NS.
Dave Cantebury, Cody Lundin, Les Stroud, Joe and Matt whatever could all learn something from this video. Very nice job and very informative.
Thank you my friend, fun to hear.

Nick Smith I have and you are correct! Thanks for the advise.
Kick ass dude!!!
Thank you.
fantastic video! I subscribed to your channel
To be honest, I see no problem in making fire with matches. At least, until the wood is not wet.
Wetterling Swedish forest axe, check out the video "Wetterlings axe work" on my channel.
Haha thanks, that would be a fun thing.
/NS.
Yes it is, i like it.
the Mora is a really good knife. especially the 2000
I was right next to the fire, it´s all okey.
Great video m8!!
Steady mora 200 eh? I dunno why i still keep eye of this knoife even though I already own two slightly different companions. Nice Sunday man
Thanks, feather sticks are great.
/NS.
Thanks.
/NS.
Who cares what you use or how you light the fire, as long as it gets lit and is maintained for as long as it's needed.
Silence is golden
Thank you!
It helps.
Cheers! Alex.
I agree.
Thanks, yes it is.
/NS.
Awesome my friend :)
Good videó,,,👍🤝...
Everything is instantly always better with a fire X:{D>
Wish I could do this myself live in the outdoors wooden home go out and catch and hunt for food cook over a fire the lot if only someone could point me to the right direction tbh
It is a Mora 2000.
That is true, thanks.
/NS.
nice skill my friend
Very good video :-) I liked the technique you used with the knife to chop the wood, what type of #wood did you use?
Thanks, pine.
Cool, but science fiction in my area: 90% of holm oak, which is axe-proof!
Thank you my friend.
Nice fire
Haha thanks.
/NS.
No tinder but you used matches.
Great job!
Mihai Solcan You can use a firesteel too if you want.
NorthSurvival Could you make a video where you use a bowdrill?
btw I subed. Nice work!
Mihai Solcan Thank you.
+Mihai Solcan i dont think the video is not about making fire but using the feather sticks
howdy.. thanks for the sub.. nothing like a nice camp fire.
Its called a "Bow" saw. You can find them all over. Bow Saw's rule.
Two questions. 1. How many hours can that fire last to? 2. When the fire dies down, do you repeat the same exact steps?
It can last for as long as you have firewood, no, just put more wood on.

But one thing you can do is put the ends of one or two logs on the fire when it has plenty of red hot ‘coals’, and then when that part is burnt move the loge in a little more.
