You know I think fatwood is one of the best natural tinder to use a firestarter, but a lot of people can't find it in the wild. I found a bag at Home Depot for about $6 so I decided to see if it worked as well as my "wild-caught" fatwood. Let's make a fire!

Home Depot fatwood: A great timesaver. Your test bears out my experience. The HD stuff works great! Not everyone lives near an easy source of fatwood. Thanks for making and sharing the video.

@SurvivalOnPurpose 5 лет назад

Thanks for watching.

@neddmoulton1 5 лет назад

I picked a bag of that up about a year ago and it's been great I use it all the time. Good video Brian

@wickedmuffin76 5 лет назад

The HD fatwood has been on my "maybe" list for a while, your video moved it to the "buy" list. Thank you for the review and comparison.

@dirtysouthbushcraftandmma9784 4 года назад

I've got a huge stump of fatwood in my backyard that's well over 100 lbs worth, you guys are welcome to come bust you off a hunk for all your bushcraft and survival firekit needs!

I don’t have access to “wild” fatwood so I have to resort to the store bought kind. It has always worked good for me. The same size bag you have there has lasted me three years, in fact I have to get more. I’m glad to see the store bought us comparable to the wild stuff.

@jeffcorbin9967 5 лет назад

I knew what the results would be before your test, but I had to watch! Nothing wrong with using store bought fatwood, but I really enjoy scouting new areas and finding those "trophy trees" that I can harvest myself. Different kinds of pine trees have different smells and colors, but all burn like the dickens. Thanks Bryan.

@SurvivalOnPurpose 5 лет назад

very true

@WoodKnock01 5 лет назад

I bought a box of this brand of fat wood at my local grocery store and I have taken a couple of stick with me on my camping trips. It work very well when getting a fire started!!!

@SurvivalOnPurpose 5 лет назад

Cool

@kvne71x 5 лет назад

Thanks for the review. I did pick a bag about a month ago for under $5 in my state. I haven't got the opportunity to try it out. Really good value for the amount of fatwood you get. The only greater satisfaction would be to stumble on a log or stump of fatwood in the wild and claim it for yourself.

@SurvivalOnPurpose 5 лет назад

A month and you haven't at least burned a little? Not even a splinter. Did you at least sniff a little? ;-)

@ROE1300 5 лет назад

Excellent comparison and very useful review. Glad to know a Georgia company (Home Depot) is delivering the goods. Luckily I live adjacent to a large Ponderosa Pine National Forest with plenty of fat wood available, but I keep a few sticks of the Home Depot stuff in my car and packs for emergencies. Everybody should love fat wood!

@SurvivalOnPurpose 5 лет назад

Who wouldn’t?

I blame RU-vid

@wonderer2881 5 лет назад

@@SurvivalOnPurpose lol yeah, so do I! Thanks to people like you and Chris Tanner. But I appreciate what ya'll do. I've used your videos to help teach my godson, who is a scout, how to use ferro rods. And we used this fatwood. Great times.

@gierhedd75 5 лет назад

I like that stuff. I keep a few in my hunting pack, out by the smoker, and a few in my truck. It's great, but hard to find lately.

At work we were clearing some areas of our hay/compost site and I found a stump that was pure fatwood. I cut about 100 lbs of it and brought it home. The rest of that old stump, maybe another 250-300 lbs worth is still laying up on the hill. Here in Oregon that stuff when found is usually an old Ponderosa pine that died back when the wheel was still just a plan on a cave wall.

@grumpyoldwizard 5 лет назад

Thanks for checking this out. There are a lot of sellers that will trick you out there so its nice to know who to trust.

@SurvivalOnPurpose 5 лет назад

I am glad it helps.

@davidglazener7921 5 лет назад

A lot of that fatwood comes from Honduras. It should say on the bag. I just got a bag that had some EXCELLENT pieces. Very orange and resiny. Several pieces were burnt on the end as if harvested from a burnt stump!! HEAVENLY fragrance! During the fall is when Lowe's, etc. get in new supplies of the fatwood. That's "probably" when you can buy the freshest fatwood from Honduras. Great channel. The bag you displayed and guessed was 1-2 lbs. is actually 4 lbs.

@SurvivalOnPurpose 5 лет назад

Thanks

@DFDuck55 5 лет назад

Florida should be a good place to find fatwood if you can figure where the old forced labor turpentine camps were located. They ran from about 1880 till 1950. I first learned of them listening to some old blues music recorded by Alan Lomax in the early 1920's for the Library of Congress. There's a whole collection of recordings made in the turpentine camps. Google "Florida turpentine camps" and a bunch of links come up.

@CorsairTrainers 5 лет назад

@WarGrrl3 5 лет назад

Great info, thanks again for another great, honest review. Bryan. Really surprised that a $500 knife system doesn't have an extremely sharp 90° Spine. That's usually a dealbreaker for a survival type fixedblade. This at one time was my grail knife. Oh well. Btw, I really love Fatwood too, it's very satisfying to process and make a roaring fire.

@SurvivalOnPurpose 5 лет назад

Fire is so therapeutic

@johnwriterpoet1783 5 лет назад

Thank you for the review! I had trouble with Home Depot fatwood but it was my fault. My pieces were more "chunks" then shavings.

@SurvivalOnPurpose 5 лет назад

Gotta shave that stuff down ;-)

@djtblizzle 4 года назад

I’m glad the Home Depot stuff works. I can’t find a dead pine tree to save my life! Not many pines in my area, skull be buying a bag! 😊

@BethKnox32 3 года назад

Bought the same yesterday from lowes cant wait ro use

@SurvivalOnPurpose 3 года назад

just scrape and sniff ;-)

@citizen1435 5 лет назад

Amazon sells it with a canvas bag. Not as dry. $30. Throw 1 or 2 sticks in your backpack and you got fire starters for 3 days.

@mitchellgardner2193 5 лет назад

For $30 you may as well buy from a individual seller on ebay, where you can atleast see what you're getting, seller by the name lovett-1000 sells 7+lb boxes of super high grade fatwood for $25.

@gilbertlesperance1271 3 года назад

If there is anyone I trust to review commercially available fatwood for me, it is you. I picked up a box of it from a local grocery store when it went on sale cheap and forgot about it until I saw your video pop up. I may have to go out and test it this afternoon. Thanks, B!

@SurvivalOnPurpose 5 лет назад

Merry Christmas to you and your family.

@h3llrayzor59 5 лет назад

I bought some a few weeks ago for $4.50 at my local HD. It really does work quite well. There is enough Fatwood in that bundle to last for years as a fire starter. I've started countless fires with it while camping and hiking or such. I have many ways to light a fire in my fire kit, but I always seem to go with this one first & most often.

@SurvivalOnPurpose 5 лет назад

Me too

@yveskc1 5 лет назад

Up North East of New-Brunswick, we don’t have much fat wood at all. I bought a bag of fat wood from my local store and I was pleased with the results. Thanks for sharing with us, sometime the store have more to offer than the nature. Thanks for sharing with us and best regards -Yves

@SurvivalOnPurpose 5 лет назад

Thanks!

@donnance1480 5 лет назад

Good video! I have bought several different brands to check them out and hands-down the best was DuraFlame brand (no, I do not work for them). I had a difficult time cutting those pieces to fit into my Altoids tins (my chosen stash fire starter kits) because there was so much wet resin It would bog the Mora knife down in the muck. Very good stuff...got it from Amzn...don't work for them either :D second best was the same brand that he is demonstrating here. It worked well but was much drier which may benefit some people who do not need to fight the wet conditions as much so you would not need to clean the resin off of your knife as often. 98% Isopropyl Alcohol (no lanolin) works very well for the cleaning chore and won't rust your knife. Have fun...try to not burn your house down :)

@kentaylor3087 4 года назад

@jeffnotti9932 5 лет назад

Man you hit the nail on the head at 9:45, in my area the pine are not as resin filled as the southern pine. I can find fatwood in the woods , it burns but it is just good pine not really as good, as the store bought. If i live in the south i would have stumps of it, for me a bag from the depot lasts a while, gives me a small bundle in my fire kit, and save me an expedition to Georgia. great to see the comparison... i am always on the look out in the woods for a stump to investigate...

Well glad yours worked. I just got some from home Depot and it was just plain wood. I used a bic to light it, but it kept going out. No black smoke. And I paid ten bucks for it. Time to go collect more real fat wood. Plenty here in North GA, but hard to find around my house

@SurvivalOnPurpose 5 лет назад

try where the bottom branches are broken or dead on white pines. I found a pretty good built that way around the Blue Ridge area

Hi Bryan. I bought a big bag of fatwood at Menards for 4 dollars. I made shavings and lit it with my ferro rod. I'm very happy with it for the price.

@SurvivalOnPurpose 5 лет назад

nice

@charleslarson3152 5 лет назад

I worked at HD for 8 years in the landscaping/garden department here in Tucson Az. The fat wood was in our department. The trees that HD grows mainly in Central America, are fast growing pines and this results in an overall lesser concentration of the resins in the wood....and that's why the perfume essence was not as good as the good old stick that you have used for many years. In my opinion you fairly showed that the HD product worked.........but it's my opinion that it can be of lesser resin quality....over all. But still worth the six bucks. Well done Amigo!

@travisfamadventures9044 5 лет назад

I've bought 5-6 of the HD fat wood bags each of the last few years and I'll use 2-3 bags so I have a big stockpile. I keep some good looking pieces in my packs and bags. I'll use about 4 pieces to start my fireplace on cold night. One will be a feather stick and I'll spine scrape some shavings into my ash shovel. It usually only takes a single scrape from a ferro rod and then dump it into the tinder pile under the firewood.

@SurvivalOnPurpose 5 лет назад

cool

@waveman0 2 года назад

my chain-store hardware (Bunning's) here in Australia sells a 1.8kg bag of fatwood (processed into sticks) for AUD$14. I love it, high quality and available. It easily compares with most other fatwood. I buy bags of it just to make sure I have a couple of bags on hand at all times.

@DFDuck55 5 лет назад

The best fatwood I ever found just a few hundred feet from my door when I was living off-grid in the Sierra Nevada foothills of Northern California. It was a bull pine stump, about 5 foot tall and 4 foot across. It had been hollowed out, and there was a slot on one side to insert a board to stand on. It had been used for making turpentine 100 or more years ago. Every bit of that stump was fatwood. I would make bundles and give them to friends as gifts.

@JusticeShldRule 5 лет назад

My Grandma was born in 1886 & we cooked on a wood stove. We had to take a trip to the woods to get firewood & we would look for dried out Pine Tree roots for kindling. She called them "Lightard Knots" & we'd bring some old Pine tree branches to make into Splinters for kindling ,Today I can say that & most younger people don't even know what I'm talking about.

@KISH351 4 года назад

I don't have any pine trees around me, so my fience and went Lowe's and found some bags of fat wood for $6.86 dollars and to be honest both of my bags are very moist went I did shaving and it very moist. And now my bags are still smelling and moist. We bought ours 2 months ago. Lowe's has the best fat wood.
