Ingenious to use the wooden handle to make shavings.

[@scoutingfreegermany]

These items seem to work pretty good and they look beautiful! Thanks for sharing! Great review. Cheers Marc

[@MichaelTravis12c27]

That looks like a great product. I like the looks of that pocket version and the inclusion of a handle material that doubles as tinder is fantastic.

[@PhilthyTurtle]

Wow that's cool design! Didn't expect the mag to come off so easily!! I'm in!!

[@TheHiddenWoodsmen]

I love that custom design he made u.

[@shannonbtanner]

LOL I love the flare comment, on an episode of DS Cody and Dave were in the rain forest and Cody couldn't get a fire and he said this when you need a road flare LOL in your kit

[@DonnyB]

Cool product and great review Joe!

[@elihicks8169]

I went to a "Check 'Em Off, Green" event in Vancouver Washington where they are made. I was so impressed with the demo that I bought two as gifts.

[@TheHiddenWoodsmen]

I am interested! Glad u used the older intro. Its very catchy

[@gregheller3688]

Great review and video Joe. They look like a great product, I'll have to check them out. Be safe bro.

[@JpMcG]

Thanks for responding to my question, but It dawned on me a few weeks ago that I remembered that concrete finishers use a magnesium float to smooth out their projects and bring the mortar ( the cream or butter, if you will ) to the surface and push the stone down leaving a smooth finish. Sooooo, since I like to recycle and save money, a friend of mine had an old float with a broken handle and gave it to me. first I cut the two thin sides off using my jig-saw and started drilling holes in them and catching the shavings in a small bucket. once I had accumulated a handful or so I made a small pile about the size of a quarter and struck my lighter to it and instantly had a white hot fire. I had to get a ferro rod and tried it that way also and worked perfectly. Now knowing that the magnesium float worked as well as the store bought rods I continued to drill several more holes saving the shavings in small zip lock bags for later use. I also cut the center bar of the float into 3 sections and drilled holes in each to put a lanyard/rope through. the center bar in the float is much thicker than the thin fins on the sides of the float so they should last a very long time. My next hunt is to find ferro rods for free too !!! Just thought I'd share this info. And thanks for the video, great job !!!

[@feralwoodcraft]

+J. p. McG Oh those work really really well, don't they? My buddy Travis Henry with Survive Without (kzbin.info) showed this off a few months ago. I actually went to the store and bought one just for that purpose lol Thanks for sharing J.P.!!

[@davidwilliams3244]

That magnesium came off like butter!! That's really cool, about to make a order with them.

[@jesus50]

The magnesium shavings looks so good! Shaving wood off the handle Sweet!

[@LeeRalph100]

Congrats on the news of a your child's soon birth!! Great info, and Informative. after watching and talking with Magnus Andersson I have been thinking of getting the Light My Fire. This appear to be great ferro rods, I will also check into this hemlock. Thanks for the video

[@kiharaikido6586]

I don't general use magnesium rods either, but these look pretty useful for quick fires. Count me in and thanks for the opportunity.

[@taquito971]

Now I want one of those jumbo setups! Very cool

[@bcpridebear]

Those are nice! Love the handle/tinder idea. Would like to try theme.

[@experienceprecision5406]

[@chadchilders1547]

[@feralwoodcraft]

I ended up giving all of mine away...I need to order some replacements. Thanks for the reminder and testimony Chad!

[@shannonbtanner]

I'm interested...I love the cedar handle!

[@acehartless6075]

I am interested. Great video!

[@TheOtterOutdoorsman]

I'm interested. I like trying new gear, and looks pretty cool.

[@eddymoney412]

Nice products! I'm not a magnesium bar fan but nice looking kit.

[@themiwoodsman7222]

Hey Joe i watched this on face book you sent me here ! i've been a sub long time i was just on face book and seen it so i watched there ! good stuff my friend !

[@LeeRalph100]

Thanks for the review Joe, I am going to order one of these, I looked on the webpage for the test model. I was really interested in it, but did not see it. Do you know if it is still available? Thanks, Lee

[@nuetrong2]

I'm interested, the wood its self makes me want to buy it, very cool product for sure.

[@mpsconstllc]

I would like to try the products you have recommended as I am new to this and the current equipment I own is very discouraging to say the least which in a real situation would leave one wishing they had better equipment such as the ones you have shown I also found your video very informative

[@feralwoodcraft]

+Mark Satmary Thanks Mark! If you have trouble contacting him, let me know and I'll see if I can put you in contact with him.

[@kullcraven]

Magnesium usually comes off so hard i dont like it. Tho that came off nice bro. Wicked nice rods and combos.Sweet give away bro, love to try one of those. thanks for sharing, your becoming the fire king and good luck with the baby.

[@feralwoodcraft]

I haven't forgotten about this gang. I was hoping to let this roll to 200 views to get Hemlock as much exposure as my channel could give him but it's been long enough. I'll film the winners this weekend (6/29/2014 or 6/30/2014).

[@seanantill3366]

I'm down for trying one out always interested in trying sumthn new great vidoes btw joe just getting caught up tonight

[@deanoboland]

Good work on the video mate greetings from spain 👍

[@MegaWoodswalker]

Very nice review bro. Subscribed,

[@MrMadhouse70]

I dont know, but did not the firerod wearnout long before the magnesium rod? 20 years back i try to use that block design and that one have a tiny firerod and the block was huge. But that fat one looks nice.

[@fredfreiberger7878]

Looks like another wish list item i likes it

[@MrTatts64]

Now those are really cool. Well, actually they would appear to be the exact opposite. HOT!! Or as we Brits like to call the, The Dogs Danglies! (Trying to at last be a little polite here ;) ) Great video Joe and an awesome product too!

[@feralwoodcraft]

+MrTatts64 LOL I am soooo steeling that phrase haha! Thanks!

[@ortiz11039]

this looks like my all weather fire starter

[@TexasNomad]

Nice review. I'm in

[@The07gsxr1000]

New sub here great review and product

[@JpMcG]

Hi, I do a lot of scrap metaling and am trying to find out what parts of engines, large or small that I can obtain magnesium metals and ferroseum from? Are these metals in batteries or small motors or other items? Thanks in advance, John.

[@feralwoodcraft]

+J. p. McG I do not know of any parts in engines that are ferroserium. Some motorcycle cases are magnesium I think but most engines are made of steel and aluminum I believe. I wish I could help you more but honestly don't know. Thanks!

[@Datsyzerberg]

not 100 but the catalytic convertor might

[@joelohms2629]

Nice vid.

[@ileanaburton1]

Great video. I'm interested

[@oldtimerlee8820]

I'm interested. Like your variety of tinder materials for the review. As Kullcraven Bushcraft mentioned, mag bars that I've used are hard. Didn't like them. This looks to be more user friendly. Congratulations on soon becoming a Dad, again. Hope that all goes well for all concerned. May God Bless.

[@RobertFireLionBlueHawkWinkler]

I'm interested.

[@MrBac00]

cant find this company with the provided link

[@feralwoodcraft]

Hmmm...it does seem to be down. I've emailed the owner and will post up a new link and info as soon as I hear from him. Thanks for watching!

[@MrBac00]

thank you for the quick reply.

[@agraywolflaska]

great job put me in if ya would

[@rkamazed941]

SO I guess Hemlock is out of business? No links work and Facebook site gone. Any ideas guys?

[@feralwoodcraft]

The last I heard he is trying to get his site back up but for now is just selling off of his forum on bushcraft usa. That info is 4 months old so I can't be sure. That being said, hemlock supplies the Silver fire Stove Company and I know you can buy a couple models off their site. I'll do a bit of digging.

[@johnellis4129]

His FB is up. He has stopped being a vendor on Bushcraftusa and is selling directly. I ordered an H60 yesterday from him. Here is the link: www.survivalstriker.com/store.html

[@joelohms2629]

rkamazed941 bluemountainbushcraft did a review and his link works.It takes you to bushcraftusa.
