thought we had alll the ways already. will check this out on your link
Looks like a decent fire starter, unless it gets wet. I took a nice chunk of good pine fatwood, almost see through, and made a handle for a ferro rod out of it.. Just shave off a few shavings from the handle, lights easy every time even if you get it wet.
@@KillerNetDog the cord is actually waxed so it won’t get wet and once you fray the end it’s fresh.

I learned a lot from you guys. That does the bush craft and stuff
Hello from Spain!!🇪🇸
Hello! Thanks so much for watching!
If you pull the rope out of the tube part, you can use it to blow air to your fire. There are even rectractable fire tubes or pocket bellows built for that purpose, which could added to the kit. However my idea for the DIY project is to modify somewhat silly novelty item, extendable roasting fork, which has similar radio antenna tube. First you should find version where the fork part is screwed on into antenna so it could be removed. Then the wooden handle should be drilled open to form a tube. Wooden handle doesn't matter because it could be scraped as tinder if necessary and when it runs out the new handle could be made from fatwood..
Yes. It would indeed make a good tube for blowing the fire. I do have a video where I talk about making improvised fire tubes which are also known as a pocket bellows as you mentioned.
I made a “pocket bellows” with a broken selfie stick I picked up at Goodwill, works great and was super cheap and easy.
I’ve loaded up on old car & home radio antennas at our local thrifts over the last 3-4 years, to use as pocket bellows. I use a flaring tool to flare out the end I saw the tip off of, so that it is easy to re-extend, once it has been collapsed. I give them to my family & friends who are bush crafters or want them for their bug out bags.

Nice bit of kit. Only thought is - keep it dry. That combination of Aluminium, ferro-cerreum rod & steel striker is going to corrode super fast with any moisture at all & the Jute will absorb it. So do keep it super dry !
Thanks for watching!
MAN YOU ARE ON POINT. I LEARN SO DAMN MUCH BY WATCHING YOUR CHANNEL.
Thanks so much!
Purchased several after watching this video.
A great idea.
Excellent!
Have a great evening James.
Thanks, you too!
Thanks best fire starter I've seen yet.
Thanks! I thought it was really cool product as well.
Glad to see you back.
Thanks. I didn't go anywhere, I've been posting every week.
That's given me the idea to store that sort of rope in my aluminium hiking poles.
Great idea!
James, bought one myself. It’s a great setup. Enjoyed your video. Mine came with a QR code coupon to make a video of you using it and posting it they would send a free replacement rope.
Yes, that's a really good offer!
I have the smaller version, its a game changer when lighting my folding natural food stove and my campfires. Deffinitely worth the money you pay for it which honestly 20.00 isnt that bad of a price, good for hifting as well, trust me your man will love this...its fire for crying out loud!!! Lol. Be well and stay blessed yall
Totally agree!
Great idea and video James. You now have my diy brain working on ways to build, and add ons. Cheers 🇨🇦
Right? Thanks so much for watching!
If my past coworker looked like you ,Ìd still be employed, Happy holidays🎉
Lol. Thanks for watching!
Bought one James thank you for sharing.....ATB
Excellent, thanks so much for watching!
An interesting modern combination of a Fire Tube & Ferro Rod. Thanks, James.
Indeed!
Very In genius!! I forward the vid to 3 friends to see if they have an interest.
Excellent, thanks!
Very cool and a true "Forever Match"
Indeed!
Pretty nifty . Good morning James . Got my YT back up and running. Have a great day
Great! Hope it does really well for you this time!
I got this for my wife a couple years ago. She was having a hard time with regular ferrocerium rods and this was so simple it made sense. Great video and really wise choice for the prep community
That is awesome! Thanks so much for sharing your experience!
Thanks for sharing in this video the amazing fire starter gear!!👍👍
Thanks for watching!
Nice product…simple and effective
Absolutely. Thanks for watching!
Great idea and thanks for sharing, James. I have a hunch there will be a future video about your DIY version 😊
It's definitely been in the back of my mind!
@@WayPointSurvival I was thinking the same thing. I like this, but man it's big. Maybe try making one from smaller 3/16" diameter steel brake line with double flared ends for easy feeding of smaller jute, and then epoxy a smaller ferro rod to the brake line. Make the whole thing maybe 2" long and now you have something that can fit almost anywhere and still do the job you need. Since it's so small, any striker will work, and it doesn't have to be half a pipe or tube. I mean a cut down hacksaw blade gives you a hard striker, with the teeth to fray the jute if you need to and you have a hole in the blade to attach it to the jute. Heck, I think I might have talked myself making one for myself. haha Keep up the great work.
It's like a big old sailor's lighter nice!
Indeed!
That's a neat interpretation of a long match. I do like the integrated striker like that
Indeed!
Yep, there are a few versions of this but the shape of this striker seems unique. No harm in having multiple fire starting tools.
Indeed.
One is none, according to the guys who actually know what they are doing.
Genius! What a clever idea!
Thanks!
Yes! This is what I was talking about. I’m trying to make one. I just need a little piece of tubing. My rope will be waxed cotton rope. Thank you for sharing this. 😊
Excellent, glad you liked it!
Looks like its very well thought out and practical.
Thanks!
I like that. Very handy.
Indeed!
Great idea James! Thanks!
Thanks for watching!
I found these last year, they are great. Bought one for each of my car’s emergency kits and one for each of my children’s and brothers and sisters car emergency kits. Always have food,water,light,fire,knife and shelter in your car. It can save your life. 😊😊
Awesome. Thanks for watching!
I have recently purchased a similar product, it it came in a canvas canvas bag, but it has a separate tube built in with one end sealed and a removable cap at the other for putting extra pieces of kit in, like fire starters or fishing kit.
Interesting!
Cool. May go with the 4" version.
Sure. You could definitely do that!
Utilizing both ends of the ferro rod is, imho, the best feature of this product.
It is a good feature for sure!
Well that's pretty cool! Thanks for sharing my friend 🤠
Thanks for watching!
Nice!! I made mine out of a metal straw with jute rope. And ferro rod glue on top. Works just like it.
Excellent. Thanks for watching!
i got 2 of them a few months ago. they r excellant 4 any bugout bags and beginners, i plan ordering more 4 sure 4 my family
Very cool! Thanks for watching!
Excellent presentation , good idea , I’ll be heading out to the garage tomorrow to make one for free . 👍
Great!
I love the blend of old and new technology.
Absolutely. It's a really neat idea.
That'll fit nicely in my back pocket...
Yep!
Genius. I love it! Thanks
Glad you like it!
I have one. Great product. 👍 reliable and simple.
Indeed it is! Thank you for watching!
Very cool thanks James God bless you brother stay safe
Thanks for watching and God bless you too!
What a great idea
Thanks for watching!
Excellent!!A jewel for sure👍🏻
Thanks for watching!
It's a great thing. Usually most of something new in the market are just good loocking but such a disappointment, but this thing feels very handy
Good idea. Great to have.
Indeed!
Very cool thank you James!!!
You're welcome!
cool beans, what a great item. Thank you for sharing.
You are so welcome!
Maybe a game changer in the 15th century.
Actually, it's a very clever way to put everything in a tidy package
I like that James, thanks
Thanks for watching, my friend!
Spiffed out, Jimmy!
Thanks, my friend!
Another great tool thanks
You're welcome!
This is a very nice cool idea
Indeed!
Great idea. Thank you.
You are so welcome!
A simple but ingenious idea. They offer several choices , a large one , a small one and the waxed replacement rope. A person could get by with just the rope and a previously owned ferrous rod. For the price the full kit seams like the best item to have.
Agreed. All together it makes a pretty decent package, I believe.
Never seen that before. I bet that's a high end fire starter
It does really throw sparks!
I have used these types before and made a couple of diy ones. They work very well
Very cool!
Hello from Florida. That looks like something I need. It would be a great addition to my kit.
Dwayne
Thanks for watching, Dwayne!
THAT; is fugging AWESOME!!! 🤟🏻👽🙏🏻🖖🏻👽
Thanks, glad you liked it!
Nice. You always find neat stuff.
Thanks!
Great video of a new product. An interesting variation of ferro rod and tinder. Personally I like the Holland's lightning strike fire starter. I have added an upgrade to my tinder recently. I bought the fiberglass wick used in tiki torches and the like and fill an old spice bottle or similar with lamp oil for the torches. I cut 5 or 6 wicks to the length of the spice bottle and immerse them in the lamp oil and seal the lid. The fiberglass wick is not consumed by starting a fire. You can let it burn as long as you need to then remove it from the fire, extinguish it and put it back in the bottle of lamp oil for the next use. It will wick up the oil and be ready for the next use. It is very easy to ignite. You can use a ferro rod or Bic lighter to get it going. My new favorite tinder. Hope this idea helps somebody.
Yes, I actually did a video on something similar a few months ago.
Awesome brother! Thanks,will be ordering one asap 👍
Great! Thanks for watching!
😊looks like a good system James. Thanks for sharing 😊
Thanks, my friend!
Thx for the vid, innovative to say the least. Thx James
Yes, I think that it is going to get quite a lot of use.
Just purchased 2
One for EDC and one for the wife!!!!
Thank you so much!!!
Excellent!
Fantastic. Thanks for sharing. Really like that device.
You're welcome!
This is super cool. thanks for sharing. It would be nice if the scraper could be stowed a little more securely. There's a bit of bulk there if you wind the rope around the whole thing. I guess that's why it comes with a bag though.
It's actually not too bad considering how much you get with the whole package.
Very nice fire starter James , thanks for sharing , God bless brother !
Thanks so much and God bless you too!
Sap soaked pine works great.
Indeed it does!
Excellent tool
True!
Like it and it makes sense too ! Thanks James ?
Thanks for watching and I'm glad you liked it!
I received one of these as a Christmas present .. FANTASTIC
Ibthought about epoxying fatwood to the other side....
Excellent idea!
Got one about two months ago this thing works great and is an addition to my many was to start fire.. thanks for showing people this option for starting fires!!
You're welcome and thanks so much for watching!
Man that looks awesome and ezy to use.
Thanks, it really is!
I made one of these from Jute, Copper Straw and small Faro Rod, maybe 2 years ago. Works awesome, and generally first (mainly) or second strike. Cost me like $4 if that all together. I have it in my Go Ba... I mean my "Camping Bag", LOL!
Very cool!
My girlfriend got me one for Christmas and I love it
Excellent!
James, that looks like a great item, Ty for the review
You're welcome!
You're welcome!
Nice Bit Of Kit James, Glad To See You Showed How To Turn It Around And Use Both Ends Of The Ferro Rod.
Thanks! It really does make it more useful.
@@WayPointSurvival Yeah James,I Had A Tube From An Arrow Shaft That I Made Something Similar With A Piece Of Cotton Rope But The Ferro Rod Wasn't Attached To But Worked Very Well, Plus It Could Be Used As A Straw In An Emergency. I'm Finally Gonna Hit The Subscribe Button Brother LOL
@theoneandonlycarlton Thanks so much and welcome aboard!
@@WayPointSurvival You Are Definitely MacGyver's Homeless Cousin HAHAHA 😂 HAHAHAHA 🤣
Really great. Thanks.
You are welcome!
@@WayPointSurvival I just bought one. I'm tired of looking for dry kindling all the time.
That's cool.
Thanks for watching!
Reminds me of the old sailor rope lighters
Indeed!
That's great hello from R.I

Thanks for watching!
Hello from Canada 🎉😂❤
Hello!
I purchased this very same model a few years back.
My favorite, even tho I do have other styles.
2 is 1
1 is none!
Indeed!
I like having multiple fire kits and this seems like a handy little gadget.
🤔 I'm thinking there's a diy in the future 😄
It's definitely something worth contemplating!
Also if you pull the cord back so there is just a small flame at the end it becomes a candle. 😊😊
True!
That's a very ingenious product. Great idea. Thanks for the video James and for sharing your thoughts, ideas and experience with us.
You're most welcome, thanks for watching!
