The SilverFire® Scout is a lightweight wood fired gasifier stove, that operates on just on twigs or flammable biomass. It is an ultra compact gasifier design intended for minimalist backpacking or bug out application. It is designed to be used with small solo sized pots down to 2.5" in diameter or other larger backpack trekking cookware. The recommended weight for the Scout is approximately 3 lb / 1.5 Kg small pots. This translates to small cookware designed to heat a quart or liter of water. This stove is not designed for large family cookware, such as our Dragon Pot. Consider one of our larger portable stove models for family sized meals. Please see stove accessories for the MSR Alpine Stowaway pot or fire starter combo kit option offered for sale on our website. The backpack shown in photo is for combo stove kit size reference and is not included in the sale. The Scout Stove includes a black nylon bag with drawstring

In case anyone is interested, this will hold a 10" cast iron pan with no problem as long as your base can support it. Also wood pellets are a good backup if your local biomass is wet. I keep some in a zip lock bag just in case. Pine tends to turn your pots black more so than hardwoods and if you do not have tack cloth, cotton balls and petroleum jelly works good too.
I recently bought the Silverfire Survivor but sadly have not tried it out yet :(
A great demo of a great stove loaded and top lit. I love mine. Thank you for sharing. Happy wandering. Paul :)
Thank you Paul.
This is definitely one piece of kit worth its price. Great video, Jon. Thanks, and as usual, greetings from Pittsburgh. Laura
Thanks for stopping by.
I have been looking up some stoves, and I really like this design. Also, really cool tip about the tack cloth. Never would of thought to use that. I always like having options for tinder.
Thanks for watching.
Nice. seems like a slick setup. I like how it all nests together.
It's a really efficient design.
Excellent review, completely agree with the versatility and packaging, its compact and efficient. Saw all the green on the ground looks like it's springing back to life up there, I need to check it out soon 👍 looking forward to seeing the next vids you have planned also
We need to get back out there soon.
cool stove/cook kit setup! kudos jon!
Thanks James.
Great review! Thanks! I'm new to these types of stoves. Yesterday, I bought a Solo Stove Campfire. Seems similar. Hope it goes well. Your video helped me to understand how to use it. 👍
Thanks for stopping by.
Great demo. Looks like a great setup.
Thanks for checking in.
Excellent quality, instructional video. Thanks for your efforts
+john kulcsar Your welcome.
I don't know how this video got past me when you posted it. These stoves are awesome. I have one and love it. Nice and compact. Can also use my Trangia stove with it if wood is not available. Excellent review Jon. Thanks for sharing and stay safe out there, Dan
It's a awesome stove for sure.
VERY informative video/review Jon!!!! Well done Sir. Seems to be a well designed & vital piece of kit. I have many fond memories of being out in the back country of So Cal. Stay well brother!! ;)
Thank you sir.
Great review and demonstration - this looks to be a hi quality stove
Thank you for watching.
Great to see the new 304 with five prong featured John. Great demo too! The thing I like about the Scout is that it's going perform the best of any personal sized wood stove made today. The thing I don't like at times and this was the perfect example, is the fuel preparation time, flame maintenance and boil times in certain conditions. When it's damp, these can be a headache even for a seasoned outdoorer. The semi-closed system makes it more difficult to start and maintain a good fire than a boyscout fire on open ground in open air. When it's dry, everything is easier and that's where this stove really shines.
+Patriot36 Thanks for your observation on the effects of conditions.
There's a company that makes a much larger version of a gasifier stove that accepts logs and weighs 20 lbs, however the cost is nearly 300 hundred dollars.
I sometimes camp in the north west, where it rains quite a bit, rain fall depending on which area , averages from ~20 to over 150 inches per year. Gasifier stoves work well with dry biomass, when wet you need a large enough fire to dry out the wood and biomass.
Nice review John. I have this stove and love it. Wood pellets work great in this stove also.
+Rich Holtzman Thanks Rich.
the stove working very good,like you say,great that there is a ash tray,for the leaf no trace scenario

Thanks for checking in.
Looks great! Thanks for sharing!!
+Dan Hasson Your welcome.
Thank you for your this review. I've been on the fence about buying one of these and this is the 2nd review You've Done on a product that has encouraged me to pull the trigger and go ahead and get it the first was the Tops Knives Cochise review you did. I am happy to say I absolutely enjoy both of these items! Keep up the outstanding work. I'm going to experiment with some boiled linseed oil now to see what kind of accelerant for use on Cotton balls or other Tinder for fire starting, an interesting concept.
Thanks for stopping by Chuck.
Nice with the tack cloth Thanks. This looks like a good stove.
Thanks for watching.
Silver Fire Scout Stove 304SS- This is a small stove, simple good material, easy to use and gas stove chamber to economized wood.
Nice review, wingman. I picked up a similar one a few weeks back, works great and burns efficiently.
Thanks for checking in.
I dig that stove. Great review sir.
👍🏻👊🏻
Good review John
Thanks for checking in.
Good stuff!
Thanks for stopping by Justin.
Got it !! Love it !!
Thanks for watching.
Nice One Bro!
+The Lone Patriot 111 Thanks for checking in brother.
This size looks good to support 1-2 people only, but would love to see one that is a LOT larger to support say, a family of 5-6?
John ! Like this....seems to be, idk, a little bit "beefier" lol than those smaller stoves. Very cool !.....PAPA DUKES
👍🏻👊🏻🇺🇸
Looks like a nice option if you want a gasification stove since a lot of them tend to take up a lot of space in your pack, only annoying thing is if you wanted to pair it with a larger pot system and it wouldn't be able to support the weight.
It might but I had to say the disclaimer.
You dont need tac cloth magnesium and fat wood to start a fire ,simply scrape some birch bark with your knife so you have a nice pile of shavings hit it with a Ferro spark soon as its alight add some more birch bark for a prolonged burn time to get you kindling alight works every time.
thank you
+John Bostock 👍🏻👊🏻
Ok thanks I'll have a look
On the fire steel they use to carry the wooden handle was made from fat wood to also help get your fire going. Was just curious if the new ones are the same. Thanks for sharing. God bless and stay safe.
I will look into it. Thanks for watching.
Rich Schwartz
lookin good, buddy.
So, the idea is to fill the stove with wood from the start, as opposed to feeding it as you go?
Yes sir.
Full it up and you get about 30 minutes burn time.
makes sense, thats a good amount of time for sure.
👍🏻👊🏻
Wiiiiiiiiingmaaaaaan!!! Kick @$$ system my man! Great video as always too! -Semper Paratus! -Corey, Prepared 2 Thrive...out.
Thanks for the channel support. 🇺🇸👊🏻👍🏻
I have a Silver Fire Survivor rocket stove and love it and the quality build. 💪🏻
This stove rocks!
Nice to see you're wearing british kit ;)
Hi could you store both the silverfire scout stove and trangia burner in the msr 1.1l alpine stowaway pot
No it’s pretty tight quarters with the lid when all packed up.
Nice!
Thanks for checking in.
Sick!!
👍🏻👊🏻🇺🇸
Dryer lint with petroleum jelly in a small ziploc style bag. Works great and doesn't get much cheaper than that.
I like this, is there any wood burning stove similar or not to this that can handle bigger pots?? It would be very neat for when im out with friends and we share the bigger pots to cook and boil.
Anyhow, nice review. :)
Check out Silverfires website they have a lot of stoves to choose from.
Alcohol burners are also handy with denatured alcohol regarding moist sticks from snow or rain.
So true. Their are pro's and con's to all these stoves.
Great video. Can you wood pellets for fuel?
Mark Remillard I’m sure it would work fine.
Yes, I've tried wood stove pellets and it burns FOREVER.
great vid.. just ordered the stove. what jacket u got on?
British Windproof Smock.
Very nice. I have home made version from tin cans. Very, very effective. Unfortunately mine is not folded :(.
Thanks for checking in.
keep up the good work thanks. who's the maker of your smug
My jacket? It's a British Windproof Smock.
Hi. Nice work.. Can you tell me were the stove is made. Thank You..
+ljl787 China but he does great quality control.
Yep. I think when you have your product made in China. A knock off is not far behind.Thanks for your quick reply.
Jeezeeeee........You used a Tack Cloth ( a small piece would do it ) , Magnesium shavings ,( enough for a handful of fires ) then some Fat Wood ( it starts fires all be itself ) You really wanted the fire to start on the 1st try. Any one of them and a small amount would start the fire.
I start my fires with a piece of Fat wood about the same size as a small wood match or Dryer Lint or a Cotton ball with some Vaseline or Alcohol on it. Camping is not camping without a fire and with a wood burning stove you can have a fire at lease twice a day , Breakfast and Supper.
I had full 16 ounce boil in less then 5 minutes in the similar stove
try cheesecloth instead. 100% cotton, loads cheaper, and if you have to have the linseed oil you can add it.
Alcohol hand wipes also work great, and are useful to have for cleaning anyway.
you aren't taking any chances on your fire starting, i'll give you that. enjoyed vid.
Will this nest inside of a gsi Dualist?
+steven drawdy Not sure I don't own that system to verify.
Wingman115 thanks for the quick reply. If I find out I'll post up here. New subscriber btw, so far I love the channel, keep it up!
+steven drawdy Thanks for the channel support.
do thy have a smaller one?
I don't believe so. I have a link to their website in the video description.
I have to be very honest. I bought this stove. To say that it is greedy for sticks is something of an understatement. It is a nightmare. Boiling water requires taking the water off several times to put in more sticks. It is too tiny to even consider cooking anything on, and it took me well over 20 minutes to boil a cup of water. I will be using my Firebox stove in future, so that I can put proper wood instead of endless sticks, I can cook on it instead of just water, and, whereas the Scout drops embers everywhere requiring an additional aluminum foil underneath to prevent fires, the firebox is bigger, safer and a cooking stove, instead of water, which I could boil far quicker using either my gas stove or my firebox. I cannot recommend the Silverfire Scout to anybody. Too small to put long burning wood, too small to cook, desperately needy for sticks, and takes forever to boil water, which is all that it is good for.
Harbor freight for the magnesium fire starter $2.95
CAN'T GET ONE??? MY SON TRIED TO BUY ONE! AND IT WAS SENDIN HIM ALL OVER THE PLACE?.THEN THE PRICE WENT UP 30D. FOR SHIPIN WHEN HE PUT IN U.K FOR DELIVERY??? AFTER IT SAID FREE SHIPIN!!!!.? WOT A LET DOWN.... AM GOING FOR A SOLO STOVE NOW.... NO PROBLEMS .THERE😬😬😬
Well Nev one would have to agree that a company isn't going to send a item internationally for free right?
I don't get why you would want to put a dirty sooty stove inside your cooking pot?
Not enough magnesium shavings. You really several kilos to get a good fire going.
snake? is that you snake?
LOL
Instead of setting it on a stump where it could still create a fire, Use a flat stone.
+Bob McGarry Where I film at there is not a lot to choose from. Ideally that would be great but I have to work with what I have.
Ok Might work for people in a different camping environments though. Thanks for the video
I may be wrong but I think everybody stuff these stoves wrong.
651st!
Outstanding.
This is the guy you pray will not be the guest speaker! It's a WOOD burner dude. magnesium, burn cloth, fat lighter shavings??!! Way easier to buy a bic! Unless you're in the flint rock forest, buy a lighter... pickup sticks... use lighter... QUACK QUACK!!!!
+Morse Moose & the Grey Goose Just using all the gear that came with the stove. That's why it's called a review. I believe I explained that in the video. Thanks for watching
Adding the magnesium was a total waste of time and material: You just don't need it along with all the other stuff! Magnesium needs a hot spark to burn, you use it on its own, then add tinder to it. Why buy tack cloth? just use birch bark or feather sticks
That's a nice stove but I can still make a better stove with three rocks that are zero carry weight and free.
Ah ok. LOL thanks for watching.

"Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me." John 14:1 I think you've have a little Bible training in your past; I like that. Nice review also.
William thanks for watching.
You don't need a stove to make a fire and cook food.
Lol
WTF!?? NO NAPALM??? SHAME ON YOU!!! JAJAJAJAJAAA NICE PIECE OF GEAR LOOKING FOWARD TO GET ME ONE!!!
We had fun that day in the woods.
Demo more, talk less. BTW, the stove will support 2 quarts of liquid as Silverfire sells a 2-liter Dragon Pot mini just for that stove.
Ok lol
Crappy stove
