This is a love to view vid its funny you dropped this 1 i come up with a silly but useful hack for my bic use enough length of gorilla tape to seal the metal of the lighter to waterproof it period and being gorilla tape like you say 1001 uses but resealable too.

[@miguelsandoval1216]

Let you haters be you motivators. Hard work beats talent , when talent doesn’t work hard. You are always working hard and honest. Follower for life sir. God bless you and your loved ones.

[@user-hl1ow7jf4b]

Keep the skills coming!!! As far as the last vid; just have the nah sayers 'use' the skills they learned from the other so called bushcraft videos in the real backwoods and see how they do.

[@TheMongo1357]

Now THIS is the Corporal Kelly I want to watch every week! Very informative, straight to the point and VERY Professional Sir! Keep'em coming!

[@normajeanhedlund7429]

I always learn from your videos. But I want to see your wedding video. 😊

[@gregorygordineer22]

Just keep being you brother. Much love. Band of brothers and sisters 🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@tleechapman6991]

Exactly Perfectly put ❤

[@Alex_CantDrive55]

I recently used the gorilla tape cigar as a starter and told my son we needed say a Cheers to Corporal for that! Cheers and Thank You!

[@josephg.3370]

That's cool!

[@eddierichardson1262]

Thanks buddy, Started to take mining classes first of week. I came home and found my wife very,very, sick. Had to rush her to hospital. She is on a vent right now. My children have sit with her so I could get the classes took to start my new job. And when I'm done I drive straight to hospital and stay with her until I ve got to leave again. Your videos and a few others shows have kept my mind busy. You help so many in ways with your videos, yet you touch others in other ways and don't even know you do. All I can say is thank you, thank you, thank you.....

[@jhorton1600]

It's good to review the basics every so often, at least once a year.

[@trapperearl]

Outstanding video again. To hell with the idiots that refuse to understand. Basics saves lives. Keep doing you. We will keep watching

[@Jackie-sn1km]

I'm being completely honest here. I'm worried about the USA being attacked. My family an I can only prepare as much as reasonable. With in our means . This videos help alot . It's alot comfort from all the anxiety.

[@killiotta1]

I can't say I share the same fear. But maybe you should look into some horticulture and animal trapping. Helps drastically improve your odds if you have or can find the land. But it will also make you an asset that can help provide for a community.

[@Jackie-sn1km]

@@killiotta1 I didn't say we were vulnerable or that i didn'thave skills. I don't plan to help my community. There's not much of one here. I'm just simply saying that I'm worried of an attack. An this Channel helps drastically with anxieties of the unknown.

[@raymundomarroquin7105]

Keep pressing on. Your instruction is much needed with all that's going on.. We appreciate all that you do. SA, TX

[@seandadon4884]

Well heck! Even if you ran out of lighter fluid in the Bic lighter, you can still ignite the fatwood shavings from the lighter’s spark!!!

[@recall5811]

yep everything works together

[@jeremiahyoder2259]

These med week videos gives me something to watch waiting for my daughters school bus

[@jimcooksey812]

That bic lighter... made a terrible flute! Thanks for the video! Congratulations on the wedding! Have a great weekend!

Congratulations on your marriage! I listened to your info video of your changing and growing business. Wishing you the best in whatever direction you take. I appreciate your service, skills, and teaching and entertaining abilities!!

[@flomax_actual]

Great refresher on basic fire kit and simple technique. -Kyle

[@user-mm1pc9bd3w]

Excellent video as always. My fire starter kit, also includes a Bic lighter and Ferro rod. I also have a plastic waterproof prescription bottle filled with dryer lint soaked in WD 40. A small piece about the size of two bits gives me around 2-3 minutes of burn time. I also have a waterproof plastic container of homemade "fire cookies". My grandson named them, when we made them together. Cotton rounds dipped in a solution of melted candle wax, WD40, and food colouring to help find them if dropped. These are ideal if it's wet outside as they also float and burn. Burn time is around 5-6 minutes per cookie.

[@Jaden48108]

I'm digging the short lessons. Down and dirty. Excellent.

[@fordtractorfanatic4836]

Keep being you brother, doing a hell of a job. Don't change

[@davesayers5809]

Outstanding AF Corp and God Bless America!🇺🇸

[@ColdHarborOP]

Cpl, as always, I appreciate your simple, straightforward approach and your candor. Congratulations on your wedding and your new bride. As a long time subscriber, going back to when you had about twenty thousand under your belt, I'm glad you're doing these mid-week videos about kits and skills. That's the kind of material that drew me to your channel and has kept me here for so long. Please keep them coming.

[@mixmediaproductions]

People got caught out camping in Colorado. It Snowed a foot. So, a video about that would be great. Like, winterize your truck and Be prep for ice and snow survival.

[@traumatech75]

Just lost my job, time to get three others!! I'm sorry for missing your midweek videos, now I have time to like and subscribe and comment.😮

[@mikesanders9036]

Ha! I just bought those bic covers this morning. Much cheaper than the Exotac. I am glad to see that they work! Thank you for the video!

[@stephankraft347]

Shawn, thank you. Thank you for your channel. Thank you for you being you. You are authentic, you are sincere, you are dedicated and devoted to what you show and do. You are ever ready and eager to share your experience, opinion, skill and knowledge down to the minute detail. You don‘t say buy this, buy that. You give solid feedback and opinion, but leave the audience/viewer to decide…“something to think about“. You are tireless to show things step by step again and again; fire, knots, water, shelter, builds … and always they are a way but never the way. Keep it up! Best instructor ever!

[@ninjasmoke100]

You did good on that Shawn, short and to the point good demonstration and your sales Pitch nice and short 😉 you’re doing great cupcake 👍🤭

[@Longshot762x51]

You got me started in survival Corp, thanks for doing all this for us.

[@mikelazar5610]

Nothing earth shattering to say just supporting the channel

[@brendanmcsherry3143]

Another Great Video Corp!!! Congratulations and Prayers for Your marriage!!! 🎉🎉🎉

[@valstarkgraf]

A useful thing I tend to keep around is a tiny bit of wound dollar store jute twine because it takes up no room, weighs nothing, but can be a good extender/birdsnest and squishes easily into an Altoids tin.

[@1stMrSoundguy]

nice fire kit keep it up fair winds and following seas

[@Vince-ml9gw]

Always great content Corporal! Awesome!! Keep up the excellent work.

[@tammyjackson-gq6jj]

[@TravelingGamer_]

I actually used your tip about lighting the duck tape on a damp day. Life Saver ❤

[@LynnJynh9315]

Usually it's the black ones that sink. There I said it.

[@MrTalisman80]

Thanks for all you've shown and taught us over the years. I'm a longtime subscriber and have gained so much knowledge and many skills by watching your videos. Clear, simple instructions that are filmed well and easy to follow. It blows my mind how ANYONE could dog on you for that. Thank you for your time. Time is the one thing we never get back and you've decided to spend yours by furthering our community. Sincerest gratitude to you, Sir!

[@johnmosimann1108]

Great video...THANKS

[@Idrivthetrain]

This is what I’m talking about !!!! Thank you sir.

[@jdam568]

Thanks Corporal

[@Blackbeard-1980]

On your bic lighter if u attach a simple wine Cork to few inches of string, add your gorilla tape around base it will float.. also Cork can be used as a fire starter in an emergency so can the string & tape..

[@RealShamanX]

Number 23... the naughty bits!

[@timlacy2284]

Cpl Shawn Kelly, Outstanding Video AF and Information. If Its Not Broken Don't Fix It. Thank You for all Your Hard Work and Sharing Your Time and Knowledge and Wisdom and Experience and Passing On The Craft. Tim L.

[@RAYxBONES]

😂 the cinematography when you throw the lighters in the bucket of water… alway enjoy your videos. Learned many things from you. Thank you and keep it up! 👍🏽

[@stonerock56]

Another outstanding video!!

[@reginaschmid2657]

Great video! Love these tips and tricks! Congratulations to your marriage! Wish you both the best in new life going forward! Great to hear your wife is supportive in your endeavors! Does she happen to share your outdoor adventures? If so, it would cool to see you both in an adventure together in a video! Just a thought……….Anyway, have a great day!😊

[@Nic-ii7qg]

I've copied your basic kit and use it often... It has never let me down

[@samuelcorbin3694]

Thanks again, I like the idea that we can use something for more than one purpose like duct tape, and it's definitely less messy than cotton balls and Vaseline. and it is always wet in my woods. so an extender is important for PNW.

[@danieljonhson6367]

I remember when I was in the army and before in Jr ROTC we would cover match heads in wax to keep them dry.

[@roberttolley5055]

Another classic 😊

[@stevewood9477]

Great midweek video. Good information. This is a very dependable kit. You always come through. Keep going

[@michaelbojko7286]

SemperFi brother

[@dadsquatch79]

I really like my Exotac lighter cover. Keeps it dry, floats and keeps the button from neing pressed and degassing.

[@JohnChandler2006]

Awesome vid! Looking forward to more vids and adventures!

[@Chickens0825]

Thanks so much for your videos! Thanks for being real! Oh rahh!

[@thatfrakkingcat9171]

Just in time, was waiting for this!

[@dRumSolo77]

Congrats on the wedding dude, I just got married on Saturday and its such an amazing feeling. So happy for you!

[@markconners2913]

You clean up sharp A.F.. Congrats to you and your new Mrs.. Hope you share many years ahead.

[@terrycheek4097]

I remember learning this from your previous videos but the refresher is great. I really like the K.I.S.S. method I have followed it for years. I look forward to seeing your videos on the bank line as a primary cordage. As always a very informative video, and thank you.

[@erolkavlakverizon6112]

Thank you Shawn for another excellent video with perfect explanation of the how and why.. Again congratulations to you and the misses for a happy, long, and passionate marriage..be the perfect team and conquer any and all obstacles. Happy life. ❤

Big thumbs up from Greece for the Spartan t-shirt I have seen you often wear. "Μολών λαβέ",as in,come and get it !

[@Jaden48108]

Indoxie!

[@kalstreksandtrails7606]

Another Outstanding A.F midweek video my friend

[@Owlz_Talon]

😆 the lighter throw right at the beginning made me chuckle.

[@TroubleInPineland]

Loved this channel since day one. As a marine myself, your humor and explanations are on point corporal. I am ashamed however to admit I only ever watched your channel through my wife’s channel. She subscribed on my behalf though haha, finally made a KZbin myself and subscribed. Keep it up brother! Semper Fi.

[@a.l.nienaber8025]

Brother facts are men like us we are a different breed few will understand what I mean about this but we never did what we did for the simple fact that we hated what was in front of us we did what we did because we love the Brother to our right and the Brother to our left and because we love the ones behind us . Bring this same mentality to your KZbin channel

[@vickiebabbitt237]

fantastic videos and l I added with information oh yahhhhh

[@andrewworkman7125]

Heck yeah more CPL action!

[@donaldlembo1263]

Fantastic video, great explanations, Thank You!

[@ladymoongoddess]

Dang, missed a couple videos and boom,…..wedding band!!! Congrats Sir!

[@Jaden48108]

You're not late to the party. It happened just recently. In the vid before this one.

[@rickcasey611]

Appreciate you sharing all of your knowledge and skills.

[@markbakovic6572]

Thank you for all your tips for outdoors survival. God Bless keep doing what your doing it's just fine😂😂😂

[@drunkwoodswyllia4885]

Another thing to keep in mind for tinder and fire starters is trash! It just about everywhere! Paper, plastic bottles, bags you name it!

[@justinrjensen2]

Always appreciate your take on what is needed without all the fluff, Son and i practiced all this skills you talked about in the video this past weekend camping. He is a huge Fan.

[@derpherp4530]

The exact ferro rod I bought, nice! I like to use a tool shaprener as my striker to save my blades AND have a extra sharpener in my kit. Something akin to the "Corona Garden tool sharpener" but be careful because it can bite into your ferro rod pretty hard lol.

[@blondie1484]

great video. i just start with hiking/camping becous im out and fishing. and your video gives great tips and advice. realy enjoy watching. and after have seen few videos that you use victornox ranger 78 i think it was, that made me to buy one and it is realy great pocket knife with that saw. i have learn new things from your video. 🙂

[@overweighthikerwannabe901]

If it's windy you could shave Fanwood shavings onto the sticky side of duck tape to keep them from being blown away and help the duck tape get kit by lighting the shavings with the ferro rod instead of going to the trouble of tearing it into thin straps to expose the fibers.

[@TimothyLipinski]

Great Video ! One of my Fire Kits is in a large shoe polish tin ! The Tin can also protect your digital/Quartz watch from an EMP ! Your watch needs a NATO style watchband with a Suunto button clip-on compass ! Also the Doan Magnesium Bar makes great fire tinder ! Also have a Fresnel Lens as part of my Shirt Pocket EDC and is great to read the micro-print for Fire Kit instructions ! tjl

[@mortykatz2236]

Great job I have exactly this kit in my bug out bag
