GF - Now you know - you got a bonus!

Thanks for the welcome. Hopefully I'll be able to afford a knife soon. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />


Ya learn somethin' new every day. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> You can waterproof/store anything small enough to fit inside them. I've used them to hold pills, 1st aid cream, salt/spices, magnesium shavings/dust, etc.

Small thermite capsules!

Mini-survival kit!

I was always just partial to the magnesium block with flint on one side and maybe some old sappy pine roots. But that is in the south, Pines everywhere!

GF - whatever works for you ! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

I am just familiar with what works with local outings....I would like to do a small stint on the appalachain trial one of these days.....maybe later this fall.

Unfortunatly, pines don't grow wild here anywhere. So we have to BUY our fatwood. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Don't you find lighters will work 90% of the time?

Anything other than a oven or microwave is an emergancy!
