Dave what you said about the part of the blade near the handle being what most use for fine carving tasks is the biggest reasons I HATE partially serrated blades. That is the exact spot most cutlery companys put the serrations.
I've never even thought about using the stone like that! i always learn something new! thanks for your videos!
A broken piece of ceramic rod is capable as a flint, as well, on the broken end. I have used that quite a bit to light charcloth. Also on an off note, I carry a five inch piece of an old anode rod from a water heater. They are made of pure magnesium, usually, and are very light weight. I rarely use it, but instead of using up my fero rods in harsh conditions to make shavings, I just scrape off the anode rod. Just a bit of a weird learning tip. Much purer magnesium than most don bars.
Dual survival was never the same without you!
Nope, it honestly never occurred to me that a sharpening stone would throw sparks. One of the things that I love about your videos are the solutions that were staring us in the face.
Dave is my spirit animal.
I never thought about using the sharpening stone to start a fire, thanks Dave!
I love these videos! You are such a good teacher - no bs just the skills and reasoning!
Always fascinating the techniques he teaches. Especially his knife skills and fire starting.
I've always wondered why more people don't realize the sharp edged spine of a knife or machete makes a great shaver for fine tinder. Dry bamboo works great if you have a source, and makes a bundle almost as fine as roughed (rolled between the palms) cedar bark, my all time favorite tinder.
Moras truly are little workhorses. I carry one in each of my bugout bags as a back up knife for emergency situations or for meal prep / carving around the campfire. My PLSK-1 is always on my hip when I'm planning an outing though!
If you see someone scraping a firesteel with their cutting edge, take their knife away, they don't deserve it😂. Awesome tips and tricks Dave
Great video Dave. Thanks a lot
Watching your videos helps keep me experimenting in the woods. Thanks and God Bless.
Absolutely AWESOME information here! Thanks for posting this one.... keep'em coming Sir!
Great video, learned a couple new tricks. Thanks Dave!
Thanks Dave. Never thought about using that exposed tang for scraping... awesome!
Very good! Thx for showing!
I love your fantastic skills!!! Thanks Dave, for everything you make for us... Saluti dall'Italia....
That whetstone trick is awesome! Seems so logical when you explain it. Never would have thought of it tho
Great video Dave keep up the good work, your videos have inspired me a lot over the years
All the best
Another great video thanks Dave!
hear you Dave, I do the same thing. each of my bags, and I have a few, has a wet stone. even my EDC pouch has a ,Lansky, in it. had not thought about using the stone as a striker though. Thanks and prayers
Good stuff, especially using a sharpening stone to produce sparks.
Thanks
great video Dave, thanks.
Wow Dave! How did I not think of the hard Arkansas stone to spark fire? It's the next logical step, but although I should've thought of it, I didn't. Thanks for helping us connect the dots. :)
Thanks for the valuable tips !
thanks again for your time and knowledge
I appreciate the knowledge you give out
Thank You .
Dave is King! Thanks man.
Very entertaining and full of knowledge as always Dave keep it up buddy love your work.
Thanks buddy!
dave is a REAL pro, he makes this look easy
Another great presentation Dave... Things like this is why I subbed
This I would never have thought about. Great video.
Good stuff Dave! Great tidbits to expand ones options. God bless!!
Thank you sir appreciate you explanation and expertise!
I find this trick works extremely well for starting a fire. its a bit heavy and unweildy but bringing a flamethrower into the woods its a great source of campfires.
PS. love your work Dave, 21st century longhunting is exactly what I needed
Love ya Dave
A buddy of mine blundered into that sharpening stone x blade method while using a stone to make a 90 degree spine on his Tramontina machete.
Since then, scraping the spine of the machete has become the favorite fire starting method In group.
A high carbon Shefield knife honing steel gives off great sparks as well when struck with a sharp flint
nice very cool Dave
Great stuff
Great trick and tip on sparking the knife and sharpening stone there dave. Great looking camp too. Many thanks. Regards shane.
Great video as ever !
Outstanding
Good to see Rufus making his star studded appearance haha
Great video. Thxs
Great video! Love all your videos!!
I always have a wet stone in my pack and would never have thought to use it to create sparks off my knife. Great video Dave
Thank you very good tips
great video. No I never thought about the first tip of the sharpening stone. good info
Thanks David. I'd never thought of the potential to use a pocket stone as a flint.
I always learn something from you. Your a wealth of information. Glad you started doing these videos.
Another Zen moment ! Good stuff .
Very good. Thank you very much
great video.
Awesome trick!!!
I absolutely agree. I grind a 90 degree spine onto every fixed or locking blade I own.
Very slick!
thats super info!!! thanx and as allways your on top !!
Good tips (as always!)
Well you made my day David
Didn’t know that using a sharpening stone can like a fire. 👌🇬🇧
Whetstone? Great idea! I would have never thought of that one and probably would've froze if I was in the situation to use it.
dave i just want to say you are an inspirational teacher i use to watch duel survival when you were on it and when you left i quit watching it then i found this channel a few years ago and have been watching it ever since i just want to say keep up the amazing work youve taught me alot and thank you for your time in putting these videos together if you ever find yourself in michigan look me up ill cook you some bbq venison
I have never learned more from any other bushcrafter/survivalist than from you Dave! Still miss you and Cody on DS. I would very much like to join to FaceBook group to keep up with everything your doing if you'd allow me and possibly message me the link, or comment it if you dont mind. Thanks & God bless brother!
Another Cowabunga tips.! Cheers for sharing mate.
Good tips and tricks! Thanx a lot :-)
good tips
Say Heah Dave, Thanx You.,,.
Thank you for the tips and tricks. Where can I get that sharpening stone with the different edges? Couldn't find it on your websites.
Hi Dave I am an ex UK paratrooper and extensively trained in jungle and e+e I Never thought about using the back of the blade to get the fine shavings every day is a lesson 👍 great work mate
well so much for buying a DC4 sharpener... as usual, thank you very much for your bushcraft wisdom dave! :)
alzathoth get the cc4
Great Video as always Dave, We thank you brother... Really missing the camp cooking and cooking in general videos..Any thoughts on when your going to do some more cooking over the fire in the field?
I went to your website to look for the sharpening store you described in this video. I could not find one with the description you gave in the video. Pictures of those on the website were not detailed enough for me to identify the beveled edges, fishing hook groove or rounded sharpening edge for hook knives. Could you please provide a link? Thanks! This stone would make a great gift for my husband and son!
Effing brilliant!
dave you are the best :D enyoing all your videos
Thanks Men.:-)
Dave, have you ever explored starting a fire with a magnet and a coil of wire? never runs out...
With the knife of that size i use the tip and the curve most. In fact i rarely use the first two cm of the blade.
never thought about the sharpening stone trick, cheers Dave
Thank you for the tips! If you were to use water on a stone in the winter and it were to freeze, would that ruin the stone? Also, if even sharpening stones can be used with the knife like flint and steel, then would glass work too?
Excellent video to reiterate the basics...anyone know if there is a video on that log tripod in the background? I vaguely remember one...
Great stuff, Dave. Any reason why you don't pound the poplar or cedar bark, always found that to be quicker and better at making fines. Just a thought.
Sweet deal man. Good ideas.
Dave you are a rad dude!Thanks for all your hard work.How do you or anybody out there into survival feel about the french OPINAL knife?Im stoked on my N°9,Thanks again
The newest from Wazoo has all the features of yours and it’s smaller than the one you’re wearing. Always great content Dave.
Very intuitive Dave, Thanks :) I have found that after making a few knives, i like to use Windex or something similar that is water based to spray onto my stones, and it seems to lift the metal dust out of the stones very well.
350th view!
Thanks for the video dave
Hey Dave I don't see that stone on your site. The one with multiple angles. Where can I get one?
Where did you get that pendant stone?
Thanks Dave, the stone idea is something I will definitely try. In your opinion, what is the best way to engineer a sharp spine on a blade that doesn't damage the integrity of the steel? Maybe something you can use for high carbon and stainless.
Great video. Lots of really helpful stuff packed in here.
HI Dave, do you plan to write any more books? I have all of them so far and find them by far, the most informative, no nonsense survival book's on the market. keep up the good work brother.
Quarts is a hard stone it is white in color easily found !
Using the sharpening stone.... Gonna file this one under "Don't I feel like a dummy" XD Great tip, thank you, sir!
I like that bark trick.......
What make etc is the multi sided whetstone you use. Thanks.
Hey Dave i live pretty close to you an was wondering where you buy your smithing coal I can't find good coal anywhere in southern Ohio
