Questions & Answers

Can you tell me how long a stick of this fatwood is on average?

My recollection is that it was about 1" x 4" It is approximately 10" in diameter, although there are a few

Is this going to light by the spark of a ferrocium rod?

Using a rake, create "magic dust" from a piece of fatwood. It's gold if you hit it with the ferro rod and add some fat wood that's been split down into twigs with a knife.

Is it the one or the other? According to the description, the weight is 10 lbs, but it is actually 1 lb. In the caption, it is written as 5 lbs, but it should be written as How can we determine the weight of the 2 lbs stated in the product information?

Since mine isn't full and I don't have the box anymore, I'm not sure what weight it is exactly. There is no way I'm gaining 10 pounds. There is a difference of The two numbers 2 and 1 together form 3. I feel that 5 is right. 1 is probably the most likely number.

The light is easy to turn on and non-toxic

5/5

The flame is durable, making it easy to start a campfire. My first step is to scrape the fat wood with a knife to create a small pile of fine shavings that will ignite. After I have feathered all four sides of the fat wood with my knife, I then cut the remaining portion of the fat wood off. When using the fat wood shavings and the feathered wood on them, applying a spark where they meet is usually enough to get things started. You can also add some cotton wool if it does not work.

Wood of good quality

5/5

It's so easy to start a fire with these fatwood packs in my woodburning stove. What I really like about them is that the packaging states that they are made from South American trees that have fallen (in other words, no trees were cut down). It's boo- I hear you.

The fatwood brand is THE NAME in fire starters, we use it on the BBQ, at camp, in every way

4/5

I ordered this as part of a small backup kit because I needed a small box, however I didn't realize how much it was until after I received it. In the end you are spending about 16% more than you would with a bigger package. If you are like me and need to store a small amount of this stuff, do yourself a favor and buy a big container then place some in a pencil case. As opposed to buying this, buying the bigger box entitles you to a pencil case.

This wooden candle, which will burn even when wet, is made of natural wood

5/5

If I break down in cold climates, and I need to start a fire easily while camping or I break down in winter and can't start a fire, I've got it with me in my pack.

I am extremely satisfied with the outcome! In my opinion, this fatwood is just as good as any they find in the woods where I live! Well worth the price, too, since it can be used to light plenty of campfires if it is processed down before using it! The set came with about 20 pieces that were approximately 9-inches long The long side is 10 inches long and the short side is 3/4 inch A thickness of 1 inch

5/5

As I pack for camping, I cut the length and width of the cloth in thirds and make bundles for my pack!.

Is a success! It is very effective to use a few of these between the logs with a little paper between them

These don't work at all for starting a fire

3/5

They don't work at all for starting a fire. Once they do catch fire, they last only a few minutes before they quit. They are nearly impossible to light. It would be better to buy them They are more expensive, but they do.
