@@kristopherb8046they will be gone by then brother. These sell out the day of the video. I literally had to set an alarm for when the video dropped this week to grab one of each. The cowboy skillets literally sold out as I was trying to buy them I had two in my cart processed payment and only one was left processed again and luckily I got the last one. I promise you they are worth it though. These thing are made better than anything you can find on the internet and not to mention are American made.
80’s Karate Kid training does not go unnoticed… love it! Also, if you learned this from Cody, I think the student has become the teacher. Excellent post! Thank you!
Thank you for your instructions always clear and insightful !!! Thank You for your service and sacrifice for this country !!! Hope the best for you and your path !!!
The big thing is practice these skills. I do historic reenactments. I usually light my pipe using flint and steel. It’s amazing when you practice I can catch a spark with only one or two strikes. Thanks for sharing!
Refresher courses on survival stuff is always appreciated. I mean its not precisely forgotten but it maintains the confidence in ability. Thankyou Corporal.
Hello from Oklahoma! Good Video! Another fine example of why we should carry a reliable source of Fire, whether it be a lighter, matches, ferro rod etc. I wouldn't have the patience for a hand drill. Good job on the fire! Thanks for all You Do! God Bless!
I want to let everybody know I ordered my skillet last Sunday and I received it this Friday. Corporal's Corner is definitely motivated to build these skillets and ship them out asp and they look great and they are the same Skillets as you see in the videos. I am thinking about buying another.
Good job I haven't tried that in many decades since I was young in the real scouts. None of us were able to get a coal, including the instructor (trying to) teach the process, so it was dropped and not mentioned again 😂 It reminded me watching this that I could have probably cupped the tinder ball in my hands afterwards and started a fire. Thanks for the video
I took a single Tom Brown Basic Survival Course back in the late 1980's. The class was held on his farm in New Jersey located just outside of the Pine Barrens. I was one of only three students that managed to create a coal and subsequently a fire using a hand drill. The other two students who were successful with a hand drill succeeded by working in tandem, with one person starting to spin the drill at the top when their partner's hands reached the bottom of the drill. I also started a fire by working in tandem with another student, but was the only one out of the 5 or 6 who tried to pull it off alone who managed to keep the drill spinning hard enough and fast enough to compensate for the hands shift back up to the top of the drill. We were using old dried out mullein shoots as a drill and for the life of me I can't remember what species of wood that the fireboard was made from. Practically everyone was successful, eventually, with a bow drill.
Oh, my goodness, that method of fire starting is TEDIOUS! Upper body strength is just one thing needed for it. I have so many joint injuries and arthritis in every joint in my hands. Just in the past year, my grip strength has dropped significantly. I wouldn't last 5 minutes! 😄 I've read of being able to do it with a second person alternating, which would help, but I've never seen anyone actually do it that way.
I'm an old Airman Buck Sargent and have learned a good amount of Jarhead stuff and bush craft stuff from you buddy. Just bought a pan with a pipe nub off your Etsy. Thanks for all you do Corporal!
Everything has to be perfect to do the hand drill. Including materials & construction, abs, arms, and recipical gyrations. Which is why I carry paper matches taped to certain tools (waterproofs them) and a Bic ighter.
Another good video! I’d have to wear gloves to make fire like that. I saw James Bender get a spark w a Mullen stalk and it was WORK. Don’t stop what you’re doing. Thanks again😃
Dear Corporal, every week I am early enough to order one of your skillets but every week it is not for Germany. So I go on waiting and trying..... Thank you for your videos.
Double c is still keeping traditions alive, glad to see he brought up cody lundin. I wished he could interview with Arizona Bushman and Cody Lundin. I need to get back into practicing the hand drill, ironically its my favorite method. Its been a while for me as well. Last time i did when i lived in northern California and attended a Arizona Bushman class now that im in Alabama. I so want to attend a cody lundin course and want to attend a double c course.
I love the friction fire methods. Hear me out on this video idea. You might have to do it over several days and stitch it together... what about doing a fire with every type of friction fire and rate them by difficulty, calories spent, time. Like the type tom hanks uses on Cast Away seems like it would take the least amount of energy, time and calories... but I could be wrong. Great video as always! ❤ Semper Fi
I wholeheartedly support your endeavors to expand your channel and personal business, but I personally really got invested in the solo overnights and multi vid builds. I think it’d be awesome if you could get back to some of that.. even if it was every other week or something. I still watch all videos in full, but I miss the roots of the channel. Best of luck to you sir.
The roots of this channel are gear reviews and bushcraft/survival skills and tricks, not the solo overnights. This video *is* closer to the roots than those were.
I never tried using tulip poplar...mostly because it does not grow locally in MT...I have used cottonwood with good results...Thanks Kelly and way to persevere...woods
Mr,Kelly. Your a very strong Man, and you made a fire out of wet wood! Going to wait until I can get the skillet with your logo on it. The choppers had to be annoying when you're trying to put out a video! Anyway, Keep up the great work. May the forces be with you!
Their is a big difference between "can it be done" and "should it be done". If I find myself in a survival situation, I will pick the quickest and easiest way to make a fire. If I find myself in the woods, with some time on my hands, I will try the hard way to make a fire, and that my friend is most definitely the hard way. Great video. Cheers from Winnipeg.
Fire plow is a great option too...and it sharpens and hardens up sharp point on a good wooden small game spear too...fire hardening...one of fav channels...and wow you really get alot of use out of those small knives. And with a plow you get to make Half of an atalatl set up
I hope that what ever drew the helicopter response that the good people are ok. Sometimes it’s not about the inconvenience and the likes but the outcome. It’s sad to see you become so bitter. Remember, you are a better person than that.
I used to work for a company that made handmade pans and stuff and man it can be hard work, i was a janitor and worked my way up so basically every single station in that place to lead welder, from stainless to aluminum.
I was really lucky as I went to a Russel group university in the UK. That is similar to ivy league in the USA. We often got the lecturers saying things like "this is what I think and anyone who proves me wrong well get higher marks" and the one time I did, I got my highest mark.
Thanks for posting information on the types of wood you were using and what you used in Arizona. I live in Arizona and friends I hike with overlook the resources available in a mesquite bosque and or a riparian area.
