I don't believe this one is still running.
It's bushcraft folks....the heavy emphasis is on craft, and skill, and ability and learning and practicing those.
Battoning safely and effectively is a skill......of course if you can't do it, or don't feel confident enough to try, you can quibble all you like
Santaman2000K, I use a wee hobo stove or a kelly kettle when out. Right now the burn out our back door is a loch. It's gone from less than 6" deep to over 5metres /c6yards deep and 20 metres wide. It is beyond sodden wet out there, and to make it more so, it's Winter, so heat leaches as fast as you can make it. There is no dry air, drying wind or warm sunshine.
Dry kindling of the small variety is damned hard to find just now. Battoning lets me into the dry inner stuff and it splits that so that I can make feather sticks and splints.....the stuff that will light, of a size I can use in my stove or kettle....
