It's much easier to just right click
Minecraft hahaha
...
Agreed
Lol
Minecraft op
i must be doing something wrong, I cant open my nether portal
I think you got your measurements wrong with the obsidian.
Lol
Like someone above mentioned, the dimensions have to be pretty accurate or else the portal won't open when you try to light it.
Mcpe
@anti project zorgo We have a portal but I'd never wanna 🤣 go their !
It's weird !... Lol
Graphics so realistic
Rtx update?
Minecraftt fever
I know right.
I found this very informative. You have a wonderful approach to teaching, calm, cool and reassuring. A lot of people try and make everything so complicated, but I followed your instructions and it worked! So happy, thank you.
Thank you so much for the kind words and support, I'm so glad that you found this video to be helpful. It's people like you that make me want to continue!
Thank You!
@@ThumbStuds are you going to post any videos soon?
It's perfect that a plane passed by at the end. Provides a contrast between the most primitive technologies and the most modern.
I didnt think of it, thats pretty cool
English teachers rn: :OOO
😂
And a flying car flies of off-camera. Providing contrast between the three states of time. Which is Past, Present And the Future...
Fact Check: the first airplanes were NOT powered by flint and steel - actually.
Good job. I like your polite & encouraging approach. I wish you continued success .TH-cam cut me off just when I started to make money, lol . I subscribed, keep up your positive work.
You are absolutely right. It's not a "special" kind of rock -- it just has to be any rock that's harder than the steel. When a tiny sliver of steel is chipped off, the carbon in the (high-carbon) steel combines with oxygen in the atmosphere. This reaction produces molecules of CO and CO2 (carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide) and releases the excess energy in the form of heat as a visible spark. Once the spark lights on the char-cloth (carbon) the reaction continues. Blowing on it adds more oxygen to the mix.
Thanks for the video. That was cool.
Just sane... :^) Saint

I had never considered using my Bushcraft Black knife. Thanks for the idea!
Is that Minecraft reference?
@@ZadDan95 no.

@@ZadDan95 how the hell would that be a Minecraft reference dude
In minecraft I do it with 1 hand. I think I'm good at this
lol
same
now i can go to the nether
Not just any nether a real life nether portal
problem we need a lava bucket
@@LogoXD7131 lava pool and water bucket
@@LogoXD7131 nah just buy some obsisdian. We're not living on primitive times bro
Made my first one today after a couple days of practicing. So satisfying to get that roaring blaze going after seeing so many pathetic fires die.
Everyone’s First Thoughts: Minecraft
Same LOL
minecrafted. it actually influences minecraft.
Nope, idiot

Well demonstrated. Good advice on how use a carbon steel knife to ignite the char cloth !
40% IRL of this topic
*60% MINECRAFT!*
fantastic!

Thank you for the very best demonstration of the flint and steel fire starting method that I have seen.. Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺
Straya 🇦🇺
Thank you brother! This almost looked just as easy as using matches. I´m gonna try to impress om my family next time we barbeque.
just like minecraft!!!! not really
It is
That was a great and simple lesson I got a spark first time going onto my char cloth 👌👌🇬🇧🏴
I created a nether portal in my basement and didn't know how to use the flint and steel until now, thank you for this tutorial!!
Great, simple, elemental, kid-friendly. Openly debunks the specialists. This is what outdoor skill training should look like.
Yay! Now I can visit the nether!
When you forget to turn off the rtx textures:
You made it simple to understand. I’ve watched other’s,they didn’t brake it down simply like you did. Thanks.
Nicely done video:
1) You've got cred: bandage on your hand, cuts, scrapes & scars on your knuckle. LOL!!!!!
2) Thx for the knowledge: I knew Mora knives has high carbon blades, but I did not associate it with creating sparks.
3) I'm now inspired to find "the-right-rocks" in my area. At a minimum, I will keep my eyes open for prospective candidates.
7:31 is that nether portal sound!?
Yes
Nope actually yes
Thanks man. This is really helpful. Can't wait for the zombie apocalypse
Lmao
Best entrance design i have ever seen!! Good video thanks.
thank you now i can make fire everywhere on Minecraft
And yet I still can’t light my 2 block talk grass on fire smh
Nice clear instructions and well filmed. Many thanks for this. - Ben UK
Nice demo with the knife!
Very good demo, thanks for showing us. Take care.
Thanks for making this video
Damn these graphics are insane
its a real life
i know it's a joke
@@WSoulsanctuary r/hziszhw6hz7shz6ie65gius65gsgt67gsg6t7g6tiwt6giuwguijsvezviw6gijtwcztujc
Will I be able to use it in pvp?
I found that the best way to light char cloth is a box of matches.
I never knew the steel was shaped like a C in real life, wtf..
Lmao
In Minecraft also
@@maci1245 then leave
I meant its true...
Mainly they shape it like that to have better grip on the steel
The fact that it look exactly like Minecraft is amazing.
@@comradedogo2441 obsidian and some forms of chert are black or dark in color
Very nice demonstration man. I def enjoyed and will be back.
I'm glad you used naturally occurring flint, not the ferrocerium rods that are sold as "flint." Anyone who has the presence of mind to bring a "flint" and steel firestarter could more easily bring a lighter. In fact, for the cost of the ferrocerium, you could buy many lighters.
As a Chinese,i really like your English pronunciation and accent😁
吴所谓 how does a Chinese have a Chinese username but type in English
As an English, trust me, that is not English pronunciation.
@@phill633vgs As and Argentinian, I like the American accent more than the English accent...
@@huntersvideos905 Such an American question.
@@toomanylevels I think American English is closer to the way English used to speak many years ago, so I've heard
Fairly interesting!
Very nice, it's pretty good. You're the man
You got a bandaid on from getting hurt filming this lol
Very cool explanation 👍 thumbs up
nice description. how ever - take another look at your creek bed find and notice the zigzag edge giving a new primitive tool to ad to your bag .
Good job. Thanks.
Thanks for the video! Very helpful!👍
Great video ! It felt like you literally brought us with you Sir, to see it up close !
Got it ! Same carbon steel just a different shape !
That's interesting !
We did similar methods for fire 🔥 !
Bien playing Cataclysm DDA lately and its inspired me to look up survival stuff. keep up the good work
As much as I appreciate information but looooooong intro to any step of the process is endemic to most of how-to videos.
Great vid!
Ultimate survivalist: my bad
Me: STOP SAYING MY BAD!!!
Can we do this without char cloth.plus can we use dried grass for burning
This remember me some game
this video is very helpful i can finally start a irl nether portal so i can get into the nether to kill the wither and makes a beacon
Fascinating method, good to see.
Is flint hard to find in many areas of the World?
Been finding lots of it at my beach. Perhaps it's washed up, some huge pieces. I like the texture of it. 😼🏴
It falls out of the cliffs as they are eroded away. It doesn't wash up.
Maybe in your part of the world@@CricketsBay the flint I find has definitely been in the sea, the erosion tells, however long ago it was attached to any rock.
I'm not arguing like you, but hey, no one knows everything.🙂
Woah it looks like the Minecraft one
love the way you say "boosh" craft lol
This is much easier in Minecraft
But seriously, seeing this for the first time is EPICCCCCC
cheers man, that's a nice little tutorial. How do you identify flint in the wild?
Gravel
Very Nice.
Three questions:
Is that 1095 steel?
Would quartz instead of flint do the trick? There's just magnitudes more of it out there.
Is there a natural material you can use instead of charcloth?
Great video. Thanks for sharing.
What modpack are you using because it looks real
RL craft
thank you so much for the great video
You could see he's been punching a lot of trees with those knuckles.
Damn
This demonstration is awesome .., really thank you for sharing this..👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Very well explained
Will embers from a dead fire work to catch the spark ? 🤔
So a piece of quartz should do?
Yes
How do you make the fire to cook the cloth
what if you need the fire to make the char cloth though?
You can use the same method with just dry tinder/grass and omit the char cloth but it’s more difficult to get it started
@@HateDiazP Or dried tree funghi, they work almost as well as charcloth.
How to use flint and steel:Right click
Your flint looks like every Indian made celt/hoe I own. Are you damaging a relic? Thanks for the video. My flint and striker from Townsends are in the mail now.
That's definitely an artifact.
Get obsidian to go nether but is Really help full
Nice texture pack bro
I made a fire tube tender it works too, just use cotton clothes line in a tube singe the end , pull it back in tube and push it out, hit the spark on it, light the tender and pull the ember back into the tube and put it out.
Hi. Can the flint n steel combo be used effectively for petroleum jelly infused cotton balls? Thanks for sharing.
Native brothers where you at
thanks for the minecraft tutorial
Good video
GOOD VIDEO
as a kid I used 2 pieces of flint to create sparks, now I did read somewhere it is almost impossible to make a fire without a steele striker.. is that some hoax ? because a spark is a spark right ?
It's possible. Far Northern Bushcraft uses two rocks to create a fire. I can't remember the tinder he uses to catch the spark.
Does flint make a sort of “glass” noise when tapped on? I’m trying to figure out what kind of rock I have lol
Yes
@@supahcomix rily
dang minecraft got realistic graphics
If I had steel and flint, I could literally do this all day until the flint gets destroyed lmao
Ikr,seems fun
I just have to go to river and get flint in there :D
Instructions unclear: The steel broke
thanks for advice so i can make cooked food in minecraft without furnace lol🤣🤣🤣🤣
The steel needs to be free of rust or oxidation?
Yes
Yes, but that will automatically happen once you strike it.
That's some real rtx
Cheers! A great educational lesson, A new skill to learn. I enjoyed the video and listened well! Get me out of trouble one day. A great like from me! 👍🔪⚡️
A+
Them rocks are everywhere
When making charcloth, make it out of jeans it will be much much tougher almost like paper.
Even though I love historical methods of fire starting I would rather use my zippo😂
why do you have to use flint if you say any hard rock will do?
