I always applaud manufacturers who are willing to push the conventional aside and innovate this clearly demonstrates what can be achieved by thinking outside the box , or to quote you , take a pathless travelled .
I think for general purpose cooking with pans and larger pots, this stove is a good design. Using it as a heater, we’ll I’m not so sure. I wonder if you could sharpen a knife on the ceramic in an emergency situation……😉😘✌️🇺🇸🇨🇦👏👏
G'day Mark, it's something I'd take, say ... 1/2 day "picnicking", (I currently utilise the Blade 2 for myself, mainly because it's a remote job, ..... or a full on BBQ to cater for more folks). On occasion I do throw up a tarp whilst doing so, (as I've mentioned before, not too many guarantees of a totally dry day here, lol) .... so maybe some benefit as a radiant body warmer in cooler months, ...... though I totally agree with you, a frypan is its forte, ..... which is not necessarily a bad thing, (thats my fav method of cooking away from home). Different, interesting and well made, like the disassembly for maintenance too, but this one's very much a horses for courses job I reckon. Cheers Duke.
Should be pretty durable. Those FM pressure regulators are solid, and the vulnerable hose appears to be further away from the heat source and reflected heat than the typical remote canister stove. Thanks for the review.
Pretty interesting stove there Mark, it did work well in your previous video. I could see this working really well in a deer stand as a heater. Hot snacks or a hot drink in a deer stand would be pretty great too. Maybe a good alternative to the buddy heaters. Thanks for sharing.
I bought this awhile ago. I haven't used it yet. I was blown away with its presentation. The case is really nice, and when I opened it that shiny new stove was prettier than any jewelry. I need to watch your other video and get more familiar with it.
Just bring a cast-iron griddle style with the ridges . Drippings won't drop down.👍✌️ I found one that's not even a foot square. I understand this isn't useful for backpackers watching carry weight.
I love seeing the ingenious but dubiously useful camping stoves that the CCP backed companies come out with. Interesting and mildly amusing. This one is in between the car/canoe camping crowd and the overnight/ weekend group hiking folks. I think that there's just enough of a gap between the two for it to fall through into the abyss of failed "one size fits all" products. Good luck with this one, Fire Maple. Thanks, Mark. There are so many products out there that I would never see, if it weren't for your channel. 👍
Gramp can i get an advice from you ? , i was new to the hiking and camping and i was confused about the soto windmaster and the soto amicus and also the G-Stove . Im aiming for the light and compact but also a little fuel efficient .Thanks grampa
I can't comment on any of the stoves you mentions as I don't own them. I can suggest a few things to consider when buying a stove. First, consider what you will be doing with it. If you are just boiling water to make coffee or a dried meal, you don't need an expensive stove. Where, when and how much you will be using it should be considered. A stove used for a casual weekend short distance hike or a week long hike at high altitudes in cold weather. Finally, consider your budget. The stoves you mention can be costly but worth it if you need them. Starting out, you may want to go with a less expensive stove that still works well, like those from Fire Maple. Hops this helps
