Flint and Steel Kit By KonvoySG

I bought a fantastic fire steel kit from KonvoySG. It’s an excellent product and can’t wait to use it more. A very satisfying way of fire lighting and one which connects us to the past. Excellent product from a small British company. ATB🏕

Good job!!! It IS fun to use the old ways! It is also enjoyable to see others excitement the first time they succeed at doing something new!

@@ericblair3009 thank you. I was thinking the other day I have not used it in a while. I need to though. ATB🏕🍻

Nice kit. Gotta love Flint and Steel!!!😆🤘💥💥💥🔥🔥🔥😁👊

Thanks very much🏕🍻

Nice! With the flint and steel kit, it opens up more to explore, such as making charcloth, searching appropriate locales for flint, investigating historical UK sites where flint was mined and used, making your own fire steel with a old file, and so on. Has Isaac had a go at the flint and steel, yet? Stay well, and best wishes to you and your family!

Thank you. No Son hasn’t had a go yet but he will soon. ATB🏕👍

Superb bit of kit. I liked the logo there to. I gotta say you have the hang of striking the steal already. Back to our primordial being indeed. Good going. Have a cool fire making weekend. Mark

Thanks mate. Your comments are always appreciated. Indeed there is something very satisfying about it. ATB 🏕🍻

[@WyeExplorer]

@@warwickshireoutdoors A pleasure. Good to see.

[@RUGRAF-rf8fi]

Very nice kit. Definitely use a bigger metal box for making char cloth. Suggestion: use 100% cotton washcloth material cut into sizes and slow cook the cloth on hot coals or a mini sterno stove.👍🏼👍🏼

[@warwickshireoutdoors]

Cheers. Yes I use an old sweet tin for mine. ATB🏕🍻

[@wendingourway]

Thanks mate I agree. Thanks for watching. ATB🏕

That looks a very presentable kit. I shall now go check them out.

[@warwickshireoutdoors]

Thanks for the comment. Made some extra char cloth today. ATB🏕

[@RobertsBulgaria]

@@warwickshireoutdoors Going to sound pedantic, but it is 'CHARRED' cloth even though a lot of folk call it Char Cloth, there is no such thing. 😉

[@warwickshireoutdoors]

@@RobertsBulgaria cheers mate I’ll remember that!

[@donaldmccann3217]

When I got mine in the mail today it wasn’t black and pretty like that one it was rusty all over and nothing was coated in oil case was dry

[@warwickshireoutdoors]

Oh dear. That’s a shame and disappointing.! 🏕

[@donaldmccann3217]

@@warwickshireoutdoors definitely was but I will still enjoy it i will clean it up and paint it and you did a nice unboxing video

[@waveman0]

contacted them about shipping to Australia, never heard back from them, shit communication.

[@warwickshireoutdoors]

That’s a shame. The quality and delivery were excellent but strangely they didn’t answer an email I sent either. ATB🏕🍻

@@warwickshireoutdoors I won't buy from a company that couldn't be bothered to answer a simple customer query.

[@anthonybachler9526]

Have this exact one, they use the wrong grade of steel. needs higher carbon

[@warwickshireoutdoors]

Does yours not work well? Mine seems ok although haven’t used it for a while. I may go smaller. ATB🏕🍻

[@anthonybachler9526]

@@warwickshireoutdoors Yeah iit only puts out like one small spark if I really hammer it. The good ones will put out a shower of sparks if you use them right, Probably the issue is in what the romans called high carbon steel and what is labelled high carbon steel today, which is actually very low carbon steel for this purpose. The carbon content needs to be about 20%, which today would probably be called pig iron. I can get batter sparks just hitting a rock with my framing hammer. I bought this for my bug out bag, so not as a toy but as a legitimate alternative to the many other fire starting methods in my pack, like matches, lighters, magnesium strips, steel wool, batteries, etc.

[@JerryShaver-vb7nd]

The bag was to make more char

[@warwickshireoutdoors]

@@JerryShaver-vb7nd yeh. You can use it for tinder as well I believe. 🏕🍻
